LAUGHING WITH BETSY

Laughter: That moment when your brain leaves your body for a few seconds and your heart flutters bringing sparkles and glitter to every cell in your body. (Author unknown). If you want some of that, join Betsy Haimson, Certified Laughter Leader-Expert Level, (CLL-E) for an interactive laughter session on November 18 via Zoom. She offers no gags or skits, just life-affirming, hearty belly laughter. She will also teach the principles of Good-Hearted Living TM to reduce stress throughout the day.

Betsy, a past president of University League, earned a BA in history from Northwestern University, and an MSW in social work from the University of Minnesota. Betsy teaches “Yoga from a Chair” for Lechayim, the Jewish Social Services senior lunch site. Throughout the pandemic she has continued to teach it on Zoom. In 2004 she trained to become a CLL through the World Laughter Tour, founded by Steve Wilson, Cheerman of the Bored.

Don’t miss out on a jolly time. Join in at 1:00pm on Thursday, November 18. If you have friends without access to Zoom, consider inviting them to join you to LAUGH OUT LOUD: IT FEELS SOOOOOO GOOD! A Zoom link will be sent to all Demeter members with email addresses about one week before the event.
