Welcome to the Laughlife blog

I would like to welcome you to the Laughlife blog.  In this space I aim to inspire, engage, entertain and inform you through the lens of the world we live in and that resides within us.

Entries will incorporate inspiring insights and strategies designed to empower, providing you with some reflection and commentary that is ultimately aimed to raise your own wellbeing and happiness.

A brief history; Laughlife was born five or so years ago as a company delivering laughter yoga programs for a diverse range of clients.  Today it has expanded and provides a range of innovative wellbeing programs, including laughter yoga, happiness and wellbeing for corporate, community and health services. In addition to program delivery, Laughlife also conducts research about the effects of laughter on the physical, emotional and social body.  As a result of the success of one such research program in 3 aged care residential facilities in Melbourne, a training program for all lifestyle staff in the Aged Care Services Australia Group (P/L) has begun, to provide staff with the tools to provide regular laughter 'exercises' for residents.

Laughlife's vision is To bring more laughter into people's lives so they are better equipped for their life journey, to infuse people with happiness through the invocation of a smile, that joyously spreads from one person to the next.”

Blogs will be written by Ros Ben-Moshe who is a passionate smiler, jotter down of ideas, and life observations and has the belief that happiness can be enhanced by increasing the number of micro-moments of connection or positivity that you infuse into your life, which is a concept advocated by Social Psychologist Barbara Fredrikson.  The more connected you are to other people, the happier not only will you be, but all who come into contact with you.  A great way to do this is through the power of a smile. Try it now by putting a smile on your face; a real smile where your eyes smile too.  It feels great doesn't it, now go out and share it.


In love and laughter


Ros :)
