What People Say

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer discounts or scholarships?

No, we don’t, but allow us to take a stand for you in this matter. Assuming that this training truly resonates with you but your finances are currently limited, consider the following:

  • Are you looking for safe and predictable, and if so is this really working for you overall in your life? Transformation does not come from being comfortable. If you want to fly there is no way around it. You’re going to have to jump. Note by the way that this is precisely why this training is 1 year long and not just 1 week. We’re not in it for the income and quick money but rather for the outcome. We want you to succeed and will guide, support, and keep you on a path that works.
  • Do you trust yourself and that you will be provided for when you follow your guts? The fact that money may not be present in your life today does not mean it won’t be there tomorrow.
  • Are you focusing on what you want (live a meaningful life doing what you love doing), or what you don’t want (lose money)? Beware the direction you are facing for it determines the destination regardless of how much you pay.
How much experience do I need to have?
We accept all levels of experience and guarantee that wherever you are at, you will learn lots more of value to you.

Note that we do not allow people to skip grades, so to speak. If you are new to Laughter Wellness then you need to start with level 1. Some people find it hard to believe, and that’s another reason why we offer our 30-day 100% money back guarantee for level 1, and 90 days for levels 2, 3, and 4. We stand behind what we teach and offer. If you are not fully happy then neither are we.

How much work is involved? What will I need to do?
You will need to spend a minimum of 2-3 hours per week for a good 80% of your chosen training duration to stay on track and graduate – more of course if you want to go deeper. In the event where you do not comply with the graduation requirements you will receive a certificate of participation instead of the diploma and be offered an opportunity to renew your training level at a discounted price.
What are the requirements to graduate?

To graduate and receive your diploma you must:

  • Level 1: Teach a minimum of 5 Laughter Wellness interventions. This will typically be done automatically between the mentor and study-buddy practices.
  • Level 2: Complete level 1 and formally prepare, teach, and document 5 of your own Laughter Wellness interventions(*).
  • Level 3: Complete level 1 and 2, and formally prepare, teach, and document 10 more of your own Laughter Wellness interventions(*).
  • Level 4: Complete level 1, 2, and 3, as well as the level 4 mentorship program.

(*) Interventions must last 30 minutes minimum and include all Laughter Wellness 5 steps. At least 2 must be taught to your mentor who must validate them. You can teach the others in-person or online. 1-1 classes are acceptable.

What if I miss a live training?
While we advise you to participate in as many live training and practice sessions as possible, this is a self-paced training so wether or not you attend is up to you. All Laughter Wellness labs are recorded and available for replay within 24 hours.
