What is it that makes laughter so healing for both body and soul?

World Laughter Pledge
Date    : every Saturday
Time    : 9am no matter where you are
Place
   : Around the World

Remember how you feel after a good laugh?

Now imagine how the World would feel if we all laughed together!
So let’s do it! Every Saturday. Across the World! 9am!
Let’s change the World with laughter!

World Laughter Master, Belachew Girma (Ethiopia), world record holder for continuous laughter, and World Laugher, Robin Graham (UK), co-Founder of The Laughter Network, give you our word that every Saturday at 9am we will chuckle together and we will cross this world with laughter.

Laughter is a gift. We can laugh ourselves happier and we can laugh ourselves healthier. And it is free. It only needs us to make the choice. We can use our laughter to help us deal with stress: and although we can’t laugh away our problems, laughter gives us greater clarity, creativity and calmness to enable us to face up to them more effectively.

And laughter is the diplomacy pass key. With genuine laughter we can communicate more openly. Laughter can bring love and peace.

Starting on Saturday 30th August, we invite you to join us wherever you are, to have people laughing joyfully across the World. Join us for a few seconds or a few minutes as close to 9am as you can!

"PLAYFUL PRESENCE" One Year Sacred Clown Training 2008/9

Dates: tba - with 3 sections in Uk and one week in Ibiza, Spain.
Venue: The Seekers Trust Centre for Prayer and Healing, Addington, Kent.
Price: £1450, payable in instalments.  £450 deposit to secure a place.

This is an in-depth training course for anyone drawn to the path of the clown.  The aim is to liberate self-expression, discover light-hearted solutions to the trials of life with humour and compassion, develop artistic skills with a view to performance as Sacred Clowns within our communities, and to learn the art of the clown as a healer, with the ability and responsibility to transform suffering to joy.  We will experience first hand the joy and magic of working as Sacred Clowns as we take a performance into a home for the elderly in Ibiza as a part of the training. 

A wonderful opportunity to be a part of a supportive loving group with lots of fun and space to recover our own essential joy. This course is suitable for Healers, therapists, doctors, nurses and carers and anyone wishing to learn more about compassionate fun-filled service.

"Your course was the very best for me - it connected with forgotten parts, got rid of parts that needed to be forgotten and was such a laugh" Venetia Young, GP.

"Clowning has made an incredible difference to my life. I'm more confident, more creative, have more energy, am more honest" Wendy Fitton, Counsellor.

"Thanks for such an inspiring time. You held us so close, yet let us fly". Lesley Wilson, Actress.

Places are limited - please apply early!
