Service: The Key to Fulfillment, Contentment and Peace.

Was it Einstein who said those who are truly happy are those who have found a way to serve.

 

As a Laughter Yoga Teacher, I have been leading Laughter Yoga sessions for over six years now. Every time, I get a wonderful sense of peace, delight and contentment.

 

I believe it is not just my laughing, but helping others to access their inner childlike playfulness and delight. To see the joy in their faces.

 

Now, I am learning the art of doing less and letting myself be led.

 

What I am being led to is to use Laughter Yoga to help relieve Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or PTSD.

 

 

If you have friends or relations in the Victoria area who may have PTSD or related conditions, please let them know about this pilot program. As you will read in the article, this shows great promise. Not for all, I expect and that is why there are claims being made.

Love, Laughter and Smiles.

Though fixated on threats, humans have never been better off, writes Scott Gilmore. The only caveat to the article is that not everyone agrees with the writer on “Climate Change.”
