What is Laughter Yoga:
Laughter Yoga was created in 1995 by Dr. Madan Kataria, a physician from India, and his wife Madhuri Kataria, a yoga teacher. It has become a worldwide phenomenon, and has spread to over 100 countries! Classes combine unconditional laughter with yogic breathing, and playful exercises. Anyone can laugh without relying on humor, jokes or comedy! Norman Cousins cured his debilitating disease though laughter!
What to Expect
Karen and Linda are Certified Laughter Yoga Leaders. They will guide you through 30 minutes of laughter and breathing exercises that are fun and easy to do. The exercises help you to move out of the chronic stress response that many of us find ourselves in these days and into the relaxation response. No experience required, and all ages are welcome! You may sit in a chair or stand for the class. Come ready to share your smiles and laughs and get ready to receive all the health benefits!
ARCHIVED ADULT CHRISTIAN FORMATION AT SAINT PATRICK'S
You're Perfectly Safe with Quinton Peeples
“You’re Perfectly Safe” is a five session Lenten program that takes on Dallas Willard’s provocative assertion that “The Universe is a perfectly safe place to be.” How can that be true in an era of Covid, climate change and social disruption? And if it is true, then how can we feel that sense of security in our own lives on a practical level? Through a series of lectures and discussions, Quinton Peeples will give participants practical solutions to help them stem the tide of fear and anxiety that can sometimes feel
overwhelming.
Quinton Peeples is a graduate of the Renovare Institute of Christian Spiritual Formation. While at Renovare, he studied under Dallas Willard, John Ortberg, Gary Moon and many others. He has preached and taught in a variety of settings throughout Southern California and was a founding member and leader at Thad’s, a mission station in the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles.
