👋 Hello Laugh Pact Pals!
I LOVE Halloween. I also LOVE how childlike playfulness is encouraged in Laughter Yoga. So I suppose it’s no wonder why this Robert Brault quote spoke to me. Does it speak to you?
I challenge you to embrace childlike playfulness and look for the “brightly-lit front porch” this Halloween month. To help make it easy, check out the Halloween Laugh Along video I released last week. You can also listen to the audio on all digital music sites (Spotify, Apple Music, etc.). And next week I’ll be sharing a Halloween-themed Laughter Yoga Session and a Take 5 Session. I guarantee that they will be far more silly than spooky.
I hope you enjoy today’s Laugh Pact List. There are upcoming trainings to check out, podcasts to hear, articles to read, and session videos to get you laughing. Lots of treats are in store for those who choose to partake.
Happy Halloween & LAUGH ON!
