View event detailsUnitedMind Laughter Yoga
Join Lotte Mikkelsen, your everyday Laughter Queen for an online workshop. Who will be providing a personal laughter workshop. Participants often feel a strong sense of connection and team spirit at the end of each workshop. It provides renewed energy and focus, and "tools" that they can actively take away and use in their lives, both at work and at home. There is no doubt that the health benefits of laughter are extensive. Many diseases today are caused by stress and anxiety arising from conflict in the workplace, and by laughing we release natural chemicals into our body, which lower our stress levels and put us in a much more positive frame of mind, able to cope with work and life outside work.

In this fun and engaging session, Jeff will combine his knowledge and experience operating a wine business in Spain, together with his knowledge and experience of providing training to insurance and financial services firms across the world, to provide a review of the last year and discuss likely trends for the year ahead. 5 wines will be used for tasting to illustrate and bring to life the review of 2023 and predicted trends for 2024. We will then follow the event with a quiz! If you would like to attend, please RSVP to adrown@cornishmutual.co.uk Spaces are limited to 30 so it will be based on a first come, first served basis.
