Medical Clown:
Laugh Your Way to Health
Laughter is the best healer!
Medical clowning in hospitals is now common. Research shows how effective it can be. It gives children and adults some control over their lives when they feel that they have no power. Medical Clowns help lower the stress of being sick and create a feeling of play and hope.
This course teaches you how to make the sick feel better, both physically and mentally. On Zoom, we will teach you how to connect to people through play. We will look at how active listening and game play are effective both from far and in person.
This course is for artists who want to use their talents to help others, for medical workers to use humor to work with the sick, or for anyone interested in using the healing powers of play.
In this course you will:
Learn how laughter helps in hospitals
Master techniques to lift spirits
