About this episode
This week, I’ve got a real treat for you.
I’m joined by the wonderful Robert Rivest - mindfulness coach, laughter yoga master, and all-round bringer of joy.
Robert’s story is as fascinating as it is uplifting, and in this episode, we chat about how laughter can be a serious tool for healing, especially in recovery.
If you’ve ever wondered how something as simple as a giggle could shift your mindset, this one’s for you.
Highlights:
(04:30) Robert’s path from mime to mindfulness
(11:12) Healing stress without lifelong medication
(21:43) Writing your own joy prescription
(33:58) How laughter resets your nervous system
(41:17) The “very good, yay!” practice explained
