When you register, you will receive a series of daily emails over the next two weeks. Each with prompts and a short 2-minute video designed to help you explore gratitude as a simple yet powerful daily practice for supporting wellbeing and resilience.

Laughter is fun, therapeutic, and contagious! Enjoy one or all four of these playshops that teach you how to use laughing yoga. Learn this life tool to better assist you in building resilience and navigating life’s challenges with a positive mental attitude. It’s a great way to reduce anxiety, stress, and even depression.

In these playshops, Sylvie will guide us through easy laughing yoga, a feel-good practice that combines intentional laughter with simple breathing and light movement. You don’t need any special skills or even a sense of humour, just a willingness to try.

Laughing yoga is welcoming, inclusive, and creates a sense of connection. It is suitable for people living with chronic illness, care partners, and anyone looking for a simple way to add joy and stress relief to their day. You can participate standing or seated, and you’re always encouraged to listen to your body.
