Are you having a laugh?

Barnardo's ran on an interesting event about Laughology last week.

Guest speaker Stephanie Davies, Creative Director and Founder of Laughology, followed with a talk about "Laughing Matters - The psychology of humour".




With The talk was quite inspirational and tackled the serious topics like productivity, self-esteem, communication, and stress amongst others.

Stephanie, who has over 10 years of experience under her belt, with humour and easy-to-relate-to examples managed to put across a strong message on how Laughology and humour can help with or even overcome difficult situations being on a personal or professional level.

This is what Laughology is claiming to help with:

• reduce stress, enhance general health and well-being,
• improve performance, communication and presentation skills,
• boost creativity and productivity,
• encourage learning and increase retention,
• manage pain and encourage positive thinking,
• build self-esteem and confidence, and
• strengthen and improve relationships.

Humour is important in the workplace. Humour helps creating stronger bonds with employees, people and friends, lowering stress levels, developing friendlier and a more pleasant working environment.
