Earning your continued trust and support is very important to us,
so we thank you for giving us the opportunity.

We believe that the world needs this program now more than ever. Therefore, we are striving to be more efficient and cost-conscious than ever.  We will work diligently to partner with host sites because we can bring the training to the host site and save everyone the money they would otherwise have to spend on travel and lodging. We will work to reduce overall costs by scheduling smaller, more efficient workshops, without sacrificing quality.

 

 

WORKSHOP OBJECTIVES
The curriculum is built with 15 specific learning outcomes and three overall objectives. Participants will be better able to:
1. Use information from modern
Gelotology (laughter science) research, Positive Psychology findings, and knowledge of ancient practices, in clinical, consulting, educational, and volunteer work.
2. Help their clients use
life energies to choose and modify their life and work directions.
3. Identify factors, especially the attitudes and emotions that improve health and increase happiness & life satisfaction for their clients.
