Day 15: Worry, Laughter & Focus

February 19, 2025

“I love those who can smile in trouble, who can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection.”

– Leonardo da Vinci

Feel like you’re in a constant state of worry? We all have our days. It lingers in the back of our minds and says hi unexpectedly. Today, we discuss separating that lingering worry from the problem itself. We do this by shifting our focus and reminding ourselves to laugh during these challenging times. Because, why not?

Today’s Exercise:

  • Learning on Laughter: Today we’re proud to introduce Terry Dibble, a lecturer at Oakland University. Terry will talk to us for 15-20 minutes on his course: Laughter as a Therapeutic Modality.
  • Reflecting / Sharing: How are you navigating pushes or pulls toward worry or lighter moments in your days? What’s bringing you back to focus?
