**Laughter Yoga, Sound Healing & Breathwork Experience (Toronto/GTA)** By **[Lynn Himmelman, Life Transformation Mentor](https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/laughter-yoga-sound-healing-breathwork-experience-torontogta-registration-1972773377277?aff=erellivmlt#organizer-card)** [The Redwood Studios: 3rd floor (stairs)Toronto, ON](https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/laughter-yoga-sound-healing-breathwork-experience-torontogta-registration-1972773377277?aff=erellivmlt#location) Sunday, May 24 • 10 AM - 4 PM **Overview** An embodied experience of laughter, breath, movement, and vocal sound play - where voice and expression are felt - not performed. **Remembering Who We Are: A Day of Radical Joy through Laughter Yoga & Vocal Sound Play** Join us **in person** for an uplifting and interactive experience - a **one-time** unique intertwining of the expertise from two well-seasoned workshop facilitators: Lynn Himmelman, Champion of Laughter & Play and Ann-Marie Boudreau, Vocal Sound Play Specialist Extraordinaire! **“Before the world told you who you should be, who were you?”** Most of us have spent years perfecting a "mask"—a version of ourselves that is quiet, composed, and compliant. But behind that mask lies a version of you that is ***loud, rhythmic, and wildly alive.*** In a world that often asks us to "dampen down" our inner spark to fit into boxes and meet societal expectations, it’s easy to lose the melody of our own spirit. ***This workshop is an invitation to strip away the "shoulds" and step back into the vibrant, uninhibited version of yourself.*** This full-day intensive is ***a sanctuary for the unmasked version of you to come out and play***. By weaving together the breathwork of **Laughter Yoga** with the resonance of **Vocal Sound Play**, we create a safe container to dissolve the "cloak" of adulthood and remember our original state: ***pure, uninhibited connection.*** **What to Expect** This isn't a choir rehearsal or a gym class—it’s a journey of reconnection. We use movement, rhythm, and sound to bypass the analytical mind and tap into the wisdom of the body. * **Laughter Yoga:** We utilize intentional laughter as a form of exercise. No jokes are required! Through playful movement and eye contact, "fake" laughter quickly transforms into the genuine, contagious, belly-aching variety. * **Vocal Sound Play:** We move beyond lyrics and "good singing" to explore the raw power of the voice. Through toning, chanting, and melodic improvisation, we release stored tension and reclaim our unique frequency. * **Childlike Play:** We revisit the freedom of childhood - before life lured you into a box of limitations - to rediscover a sense of wonder and curiosity. **The Journey Back to "You"** The goal of this workshop is a profound **"Remembering."** Together, we will: 1. **Shed the Armor:** Use movement to shake off the weight of societal expectations. 2. **Open the Heart:** Use laughter to break down emotional barriers and foster deep connection. 3. **Find Your Frequency:** Use vocal play to express the truths that words often fail to capture. 4. **Reclaim Play:** Remember that joy is your birthright, not a luxury. ***"Laughter is the shortest distance between two people, and song is the bridge between the human and the divine."*** **Who This Is For** **This space is for those who feel:** * A longing to express more fully, but something holds them back * A sense that their voice—literal or metaphorical—has been muted * A desire to reconnect with joy in a way that feels real, not forced You do not need to be "funny," and you certainly do not need to be a "singer." You only need a willingness to listen inwardly…and allow something to shift. If you have a heartbeat and a voice you are perfectly qualified to attend. Come as you are . . . and leave as who you ***really*** are. **What You Will Reclaim** * **The Freedom to Play:** Reconnect with your "Inner Child"- the one who laughed without a punchline and sang without a stage. * **Somatic Release:** Use the combination of sound and laughter to flush cortisol out of your system and replace it with a "cocktail" of endorphins and oxytocin. * **Vocal Empowerment:** Stop "dampening down" your soul. Learn to take up space with your breath and your sound. * **Heart-Centered Connection:** Experience the profound bond that forms when a group of people drops their guards and meets in a space of shared vulnerability. **What You Will Leave With** Not just an experience - but a felt sense you can return to. * The memory of your unfiltered voice * A body that knows how to release, not just hold on * A deeper trust in your natural expression And perhaps most importantly: **the recognition that what you’ve been seeking…** **has been within you the entire time.** **Facilitators' Note** *This is a "no-talent" zone. You don’t need a singing voice, and you don’t need to be in a good mood. We don't use jokes; we use the body. All you need is the desire to be seen and heard in your most authentic form. This workshop provides you with the “How”.* **Participant Checklist** * **Comfortable Clothing:** Wear something you can move, dance, and lie down in. Dress in layers to accommodate periods of heating up and cooling down. * **Relaxation Props:** Bring a yoga mat, 1-2 pillows for under your neck and knees, a blanket or towel to cover yourself * **An Open Mind:** Leave the "adult" at the door; they can pick you up at 5:00 PM. * **Water Bottle:** Laughter and toning are thirsty work! * **Brown Bag Lunch:** Bring food for yourself (Lean towards, fresh, organic, vegetarian choices in order to align with The Redwood Studios vegetarian policy)and (optional)food to share. Get to know your workshop playmates, socializing and breaking bread together, between our morning and afternoon workshop sessions, in our community gathering spot, The Redwood Green Room, 3rd floor. If you prefer to break away on your own for lunch, be aware that there are limited "eating out" options close enough to the venue to be back within the hour. ***Reconnect with your true self through fun, community, and joyful expression.*** **How to Claim Your Spot in the Workshop** Please note that this event can be attended **in-person only**. **Pre-registration is required.** Registration closes at 10pm May 23.

In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod. **YouTube Link** TBD

Sometimes it’s a massive advantage… and sometimes it can complicate your business if you don’t know what you’re walking into. In this training, we’ll cut through the “agents vs investors” drama and focus on one thing: **what makes you more money and gives you more leverage**. You’ll learn: * **When being licensed helps investors win** (better access, better data, better terms, better deal flow) * How investors use a license to **create extra profit centers** (commissions, referrals, listings, buyer rep, property management pathways) * The truth about **MLS access, pocket listings, and being first to the good deals** * How licensing impacts **wholesaling, double-closing, assignments, and disclosures** * What brokerages don’t tell you: **fees, splits, compliance, and time requirements** * When it’s smarter to **partner with an agent** instead of becoming one * A simple decision framework: **licensed vs partnered vs hybrid model** You’ll walk out knowing whether licensing fits your goals—and if it does, the cleanest path to do it without slowing down your investing.
