Laughter yoga?? Does a comedian come in during the yoga session? Do we laugh at each other while in downward dog? Is nitrous oxide involved? Laughter yoga is probably not quite what you'd envision, but it may be even better! Tune in to learn what exactly laughter yoga is, how it got started, and the wellness benefits to something so foundational to human communication- laughter!  I hope this episode puts a smile on your face, and if nothing else, reminds you to regularly bring laughter back into your life!    PODCAST WEBSITE: https://www.mihealthandsafety.com YOUTUBE CHANNEL: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWya4nhb3BDLNfmCU3YFNsA HOST'S LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tamaramisewicz   Guest Bio: Jeannine Luby   President of Laugh to Live, LLC Jeannine Luby believes strongly in the power of humor and laughter to help others and herself manage stress and cope with our “pain points” in life…that’s everything from being stuck in traffic to shooing a squirrel off your “squirrel-proof” bird feeder (Jeannine’s least favorite pastime), to bigger stressors like losing a loved one or living with an illness. Touting the wellness benefits of laughter is what Jeannine does through her business, Laugh to Live. She began the business in 2006, while working in healthcare communications for Blue Cross of NEPA and left her “day job” in 2010 to pursue her business full time, offering interactive presentations using laughter yoga for conference break-out sessions, ice breakers, corporate wellness programs, retreats, banquets and many other types of gatherings. In addition to leading laughter yoga, Jeannine has performed comedy improvisation and stand-up comedy for more than 20 years and now focuses on ladies’ night comedy events at wineries, other women-focused businesses and corporate events. Today, Jeannine splits her time between Laugh to Live and her independent marketing communications work. She helps her clients with traditional and social media marketing strategies and website updates, creates content for social media, and writes blog articles and news releases. In 2021, Jeannine created a new outlet to share inspirational stories from women, laughs—and much more--with her podcast “Uncorked with Funny Wine Girl,” available on Spotify, Apple & Google Podcasts and others.
