You

Zoom laughter meeting. It is always easier and more fun to laugh
in a group and this
is why Zoom Laughter works so well. A screen full of happy smiling
faces is the restorative tonic we can all use at a time like this.

Welcome to FAB Fridays with Cathy Nesbitt. We try to make every

with Laughter Yoga and some other techniques picked up along the
way. Join us every Friday for an adventure that will
put a smile on your face and
start your weekend, in the right frame of mind.
Do you like to laugh?
Did you know that laughing is good for you?
Laughter is fun and therapeutic.
Laughter Yoga is simple and profound.
An exercise routine and complete well-being workout. Developed by
a medical doctor from India Dr. Madan Kataria (1995). Laughter yoga
is not about fancy pants or poses. It is laughter for no reason
to encourage a sense of child-like play and feeling of joy. The
yoga part is all about the deep breathing. The laughing stretches
various muscles in your chest, abdomen, neck & shoulders. 10-15
minutes of sustained belly laughter can be equivalent to 30 minutes
of rowing!
Laughter is the best medicine. Have you had your
daily DOSE. Dopamine, Oxytocin, Serotonin & Endorphins (the
happy hormones) get released into your bloodstream when you laugh.
Making you feel better physically and emotionally.
Laughter Yoga Will:
Improve fitness with fun and easy exercise
Reduce stress
Increase happiness
Promote a positive mental attitude
Give more energy
Strengthen your immune system

Nothing creeped out Cathy Nesbitt more
than worms.
But during the past 16 years, she has become
known as Bradford West Gwillimbury’s Worm Lady.
Nesbitt runs her business, Cathy’s
Crawly Composters, out of her home — promoting
vermicomposting, or composting with the use of worms,
across Canada by selling red wiggler worms, composting
containers, composter bedding, books, earrings in the
shape of worms, and other so-called “wormy accessories,”
such as compost pails.
Laughter creates connections between humans.
Learn about the tremendous health benefits from regular,
sustained belly laughter and have a few laughs along
the way. Laughter is the best medicine for good reason.
It’s in us all waiting to burst out. Life is stressful.
Our brain requires 25% more oxygen than the rest of
our body. When we’re stressed, we’re not breathing deeply.
The body is deprived of air and therefore so is the
brain. We cannot think clearly when stressed. Laughter
helps us release tension and improve relationships.
Laughter breaks down barriers.
Enterprize Zone
started as a project back in 2015 to try and help good
entrepreneurs to get more media exposure for the work
they were doing. Their tales are often inspiring and
there is plenty to be learnt from the answers they share.
The platform asks a weekly series of questions challenging
the entrepreneurs to share their views on different
areas of business and the economy so that you can learn
from them. These
are the Answers.

Where Compassion Meets Community
Hello
Cathy,
I am writing to thank you for your Laughter
Yoga session this morning.
I did not know what to expect at all when
I signed up the Matthews House Hospice volunteers and
myself for a virtual class. I have to say, I was very
pleased and very happy with the session.
I started out making myself laugh and then
I found myself tearing from laughing so much. It just
lifted my spirits and made me feel lighter.
Thank you Cathy so much for sending a little
sunshine my way.

Cathy has been leading laughter
yoga classes regularly for our group of special needs
adults for about a year now. In that time she has developed
meaningful relationships. Our folks really look forward
to spending time with Cathy as she reaches out to include
everyone. We laugh, we learn, we excercise and remember
what it is like to laugh for no reason and just be silly.
Cathy is reliable and always has a smile
on her face. We would highly recommend her.
Sincerely,
