I facilitated a therapeutic comedy session for a group of public school teachers at their annual conference.

Before the event, I surveyed various educators, asking them to share their stressors, frustrations and complaints. Then, I turned each one into an interactive comedy card and assembled all the cards into a digital deck.

During the session, after guiding the audience through a few warm-up activities, I had the teachers form groups. They swiped through these custom cards, plugging in absurdity to transform each statement into a joke...and cracked each other up.

Finally, volunteers stepped up to the mic and performed their favorite jokes from the deck, bringing laughter to themselves and their colleagues.

Life is stressful, and therapeutic comedy can provide some relief. Please reach out if your team, organization, or community could benefit from finding ways to laugh it off.
