Peter is a laughter yoga therapist who specialises in creating wellness in the workplace through his unique presentations to the corporate sector. Using the body mind connection together with his infectious energy, Peter works to create a sense of connection between people, draw out positive emotions and relax, yet energise everyone at the same time. Peter focuses on the simple act of laughter as a breathwork practice, encouraging people to participate in a range of carefully selected physical actions, along with the laughter. He contextualises the value of the positive actions, showing how they can apply at home as well as in the workplace. After 30 minutes of positive energy and laughing, he finishes with a meditation that is grounding and extremely well received. The end result he says, is people come away glowing, feeling completely relaxed and yet energised. As the class clown in high school, with mentors like observational comedy legend Jerry Seinfeld, Peter says he has been working towards this profession his entire life. Peter currently owns and operates an air conditioning business and after seeing so much stress and ill health in workplaces he visited, he decided to put his natural sense of humour and passion for business success to good use. He also realised there was as much benefit in delivering his program for his own wellbeing as there was for others. After completing his training in 2012, his first corporate gig was with the world-renowned Cirque Du Soleil, which he describes as a baptism of fire. The circus troop came away grinning and Peter knew he’d made a positive impact. Describing his program as an “amazing energy transaction” Peter gets great joy from seeing the transformation in peoples’ faces. Not only do participants enjoy themselves, he says, there is a beautiful connection of souls, which Peter calls magic. Read more
