Editorial:Greetings! It hit me at 7pm, only a few hours ago. "It" was an email from Dr Kataria telling me that he would not be attending the 2009 All America Laughter Yoga Conference for personal reasons. Life happens, and we're also 3 weeks away from that event. 46 people have signed up so far to his Monday 9/28 workshop. Where I live we call that kind of last minute cancellation a real bummer. Did I get stressed? Read on. This is where it gets interesting. The answer is no, not really. 5 years ago I would have blown a few fuses. I am good guy. How could life do this to me? Today I immediately took a few deep breath, smiled and instinctively took the view that life is friendly and this was a blessing. Laughter Yoga is a major enhancement in the field of emotional intelligence. You gotta love it for that. I have been practicing faithfully for over 5 years now. ...and I was right. As I went on to find out why this was a blessing I was effortlessly led to an experienced and charismatic woman with an equally outstanding program who somehow was there and ready to go. Don’t ask me how or why. It just happened. Her name is Katie West. Dr Kataria was going to talk on laughing alone. Katie is going to do the same with a very different spin and immediate practical applications. Participants will actually also learn the basics of how to do this with clients as well. Laughter Coaching is a transformational process which creates or re-establishes the practice of laughter into one’s life. By combining the benefits of laughter with the focused approach of coaching, clients are able to bring more laughter into their lives and direct this energy towards their goals.
