The mental and physical health benefits of laughter continue to be confirmed by hundreds of studies and testimonials. Laughter Yoga exercises are fun, simple, and easy to apply in your daily life. When practiced in a group, the exercises create a healing, transcendent experience, where emotions are released in a healthy and productive way.

G. Jung, during the first twelve years of the Twentieth Century.  Confronted with the task of helping persons suffering from disabling psychotic experiences, Bleuler and Jung utilized scientific research and a new conceptualization of human psychology to provide a way of understanding their patients, leading to the creation of an entirely new disease concept: "the schizophrenias." Bleuler, Jung, and the Creation of the Schizophrenias is available for purchase in both our online store, and in the bookstore itself.  Please contact Elissa Davis (information below) with any questions, or to reserve your copy today!
