June 2020 - A Special Statement from Noreen Braman

PINK HAIR - DON'T CARE!

 

During this time of working from home, social distancing, mask-wearing and toilet paper scavenging, what are you doing to bring a smile to your face? Finding some humor in the midst of stressful circumstances is a time-honored way to help yourself manage.

 

I've been seeking out funny movies and the comedians I enjoy and only watching news reports long enough to be informed. On a Zoom call with my grandchildren, everyone brought hats, masks and costumes to the virtual party. And on my video page are two video done specifically for this time — one for the littlest laughers, and the other a Laughter Mindfulness Meditation for everyone!

 

I also decided this was the perfect time to put some pink haircolor in my hair — something I've been thinking about doing for a long time, but never quite had the nerve. What better time than now! The Love of My Life and I also took a risk and gave each other haircuts! I think we both survived that!

 

Here's hoping you are finding way to smile and laugh while attending to these very serious circumstances. I send you all thoughts of strength and healing.

 

Yours in love and laughter,

 

 

Noreen Braman

Living on the Smile Side of Life!

Thanks to all of you who enthusiastically attended my recent class at the

Osher Lifelong Learning Institute

at Rutgers University:

"Laughter for Physical and

Psychological Well Being."

 

It was a pleasure sharing laughter with you.

 

Currently, I am scheduled to present two five-week classes during the summer session. Of course, this will all depend on how long this current coronavirus emergency lasts. Please take care of yourselves, and your loved ones.
