Anti-Stigma

 

 

 

A good laugh and a long sleep are the best cures in a doctor's book~Irish proverb

 

According to http://www.camh.ca/ 1 in 5 Canadians suffers from mental illness?

 

An Anti-Stigma laughter yoga program occured to me for two reasons. One I was

part of a anti stigma workshop for grades 9 and 10 a couple of years ago and it went well and two I have had four people in my life who have commited suicide.

 

It a program that would targeted for all high school students.

 

This a program where it gets the teens to thinking about the fact it could be their

best friend, the most popular person, not just a shy or loner person. It shows them that laughter yoga can be a way to cope with the stresses of everyday life.

 

If this is something you would like for your students or for to be something that

could be used for a anti-stigma awareness week then feel free to contact me
