Why do people say that laughter is the best medicine? Because it’s been proved.. time and time again!!  Laughter makes us feel good;  it relieves stress and makes us happy.  Laughter is healthy and helps our bodies fight disease by mobilizing our T-lymphocytes and putting a sparkle in the hormonal system.  Laughter does for the mind what exercise does for the cardiovascular system.

As Chris Johnson says, laughter is the shortest distance between two people;  it cultivates communication and builds relationships.  In addition to increasing productivity in the workplace, laughter results in reduced absenteeism, anxiety relief and an all-round increased sense of well-being.

In a session with one of Canada’s most renowned laughter advocates, audiences are treated to a combination of stand-up comedy, along with a healthy dose of humour and heart, designed to illustrate the life-long benefits of laughter as a lifestyle.  Chris teaches his audiences how they can create environments which foster good humour, respect, caring and nurturing.  He encourages, through an interractive and dynamic presentation, audience members to explore strategies which will allow individuals to play together, and hence, stay together.

If you, or your co-workers suffer from any of the following, the David Lavin Agency strongly suggests that you seek immediate attention by making an appointment with Chris Johnson… call us, we guarantee you’ll be glad you did!!

His presentations on laughter and humor in the workplace have prompted many throughout North America to brand him with the title "guru," and there is little doubt that the impact he has made on the thousands who have heard him speak has been substantial.  Chris’ presentations and workshops are similar in nature to a stand-up comedy performance, but one in which the audience gets involved.  His interactive style ensures that his audiences remain glued to their seats and focused on the presentation, while the constant level of laughter and information ensures that the experience is rooted in subliminal learning.

Combining a message of humor, heart and a challenge to his audiences to realize the importance of laughter in fostering happy, productive and caring work environments, Chris’ work on the psychological effects of laughter is ground-breaking.   He works with his audiences to identify their own "funny bone" and his seminar "Jest for the Hell(th) of It" leaves participants feeling energized, rejuvenated and equipped to move forward with optimism into an often uncertain future.
