Celebrating World Heart Day at TungShin Hospital 1st Oct 2011



TungShin Hospital organised an event to celebrate World Heart Day on 1st October.  There were free health screenings, talks by Medical Specialists, Lucky Draws, Qigong demonstrations as well as Laughter Yoga sessions.  The LY session was enjoyed by all who participated.  LY, once again brought out the laughter, smiles and joy from people who hardly knew each other, people who laughed just by keeping eye contact with total strangers.

Laughter Yoga with Cancerlink Patients 24th Sept 2011



With the Founder of Cancerlink, Mrs J Fernandez 
I was invited to share laughter at a retreat organised by  Cancerlink Foundation at Fraser's Hills recently.  This retreat known as the Rainbow Connection are for cancer survivors whose ages ranged from 35 and above.  There were about 50+ participants, including  6 volunteers. The retreated was fully funded through Cancerlink, which was able to get sponsors to support the event. There were games,  costume competition and Cane exercises as well as LY session.  Many have not heard of LY before.  Thus it was a great joy to bring laughter to a group of sporting adults, who have learned to appreciate life as never before, laughed with great zest and without inhibitions.
