This workshop will be multifaceted and function in phases. In the beginning we will discuss some eastern philosophy about the Divine comedy that is existence. From there we will learn the chemistry of laughter and how it affects the brain then introduce ourselves to the group.
Gentle movement and lightening work will help us to shed layers of performance and the expectations of the outside world to prepare and free us for un-contained laughter. A guided laughter exercise in to free flowing laughter will follow.
After we wind down the laughter we will do grounding work and a guided deep relaxation.
