Her 50+ years in nursing, 37 years in massage therapy, 10+ years in Laughter Yoga and 8+ years working with HeartMath have given her not only decades of experience in health services, but a special insight into physical, mental and emotional well-being.

WHAT IS LAUGHTER YOGA?
Laughter Yoga is a single exercise routine that reduces physical, mental and emotional stress simultaneously. It combines Laughter with Yoga Breathing to quickly stop cortisol and release happiness hormones into the body, opening the door for functioning in the Parasympathetic Nervous System. All this happens within the first
3-5 minutes of your Laughter!
Try it! Janet's popular one-hour presentations are great for groups, businesses, schools, hospitals, churches, first responders and anyone who can
fog a mirror!
