Laughter Yoga:
Based on the principle of laughing for no reason, this session will engage with our inner playfulness for an exercise class including warm-ups, Laughter Yoga games, and a laughter meditation.
Guided Meditation:
After some warm up stretches and breathing exercises, participants will listen to a guided meditation.
Creative Writing:
The aim is to create a short one-scene film using mobile phones. The session will start by looking at inspiration, structure, character and dialogue, and then create your own work.
Little Shop of Happiness:
The Little Shop of Happiness is a brand new six week online personal transformation and coaching programme, where we explore the true nature of the mind to discover how resilience, happiness and wellbeing are built into the human design. It’s no ordinary change programme and allows participants to see for themselves the very nature of their innate wellbeing. It’s a unique opportunity to understand how the mind works at a deeper level, and how your true potential for change is at the very core of your being.
