A 5-Week Course Starting Monday, April 16th
Week 1: The Cosmic Joke and the Fool’s Journey (April 16)
In this session, we will explore the metaphysical nature of humor and how and why life is indeed a joke. This understanding is the gateway to both healing the heart and freeing the mind. This week we will learn:
What is the Cosmic Joke, and why is it funny – and not funny?
How and why seriousness is always the set up for humor, and how to know when the joke is on you and not take it “poisonally”
The journey to “fool realization” and the pathway to becoming the “wise fool”
Week 2: The Elements of Humor (April 23)
This week we will look at the four elements and how they apply to comedy. We’ll recognize that with earth, water, fire or water, humor can be used as an “alchemical” (not to mention “all-comical”) balance. In this session we will have fun with:
The alchemy of humor: how to transform the grosser stuff of life into laughter, joy, insight and wisdom
Finding YOUR most powerful element, and identifying your humor type
Using the four elements of humor to heal (i.e., restore wholeness)
Week 3: Humoring Yourself and Others (April 30)
In this session, we explore the protocols of when to go for the jocular… and when not to. We will put humor into the context of all transformational modalities, so a joke builds bridges instead of blowing them up. This week we’ll play with:
Why the first – and best – joke is always on yourself
How and when to take the conversation from serious to humorous
How to tell a joke – really!
Week 4: Transforming the Trance (May 7)
This week we learn how a joke uses a trance to end a trance, and how and why humor is a dance between the logical and intuitive brains. We will understand the deeper context of jokes so they can be truly used as “healing stories.” Some of what we will cover includes:
Why the mind needs to – and loves to – be tricked
The “aha” after the “ha-ha” – how to seed insight in a “harmless” joke
The Zen Cohen – what it is, how to use it and how to create your own
Week 5: Your Laugh Story (May 14)
Swami says, “Laugh at yourself – and the whole world will laugh at you, too.” This session is about creating “self-facing” humor that dances with your personal shadow while staying “in love.” Some of what we will cover in our final session includes:
Finding the natural humor in your life story, and using it to transform your story into a healing one
Tracing your own “fool’s journey”
The transformational nature of: “… and then, a funny thing happened…”
You will learn about comedy – with a transformational twist – from the inside out, and find out how even a non-comedian can practice “situational comedy” in almost any situation.

What is Hypnosis & NLP ?
Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) is a pseudoscientific approach to communication, personal development, and psychotherapy created by Richard Bandler and John Grinder in California, United States, in the 1970s. NLP’s creators claim there is a connection between neurological processes (neuro-), language (linguistic) and behavioral patterns learned through experience (programming), and that these can be changed to achieve specific goals in life. Bandler and Grinder also claim that NLP methodology can “model” the skills of exceptional people, allowing anyone to acquire those skills. They claim as well that, often in a single session, NLP can treat problems such as phobias, depression, tic disorders, psychosomatic illnesses, near-sightedness, allergy, the common cold, and learning disorders. NLP has been adopted by some hypnotherapists and also by companies that run seminars marketed as leadership training to businesses and government agencies.
There is no scientific evidence supporting the claims made by NLP advocates, and it has been discredited as a pseudoscience. Scientific reviews state that NLP is based on outdated metaphors of how the brain works that are inconsistent with current neurological theory and contain numerous factual errors. Reviews also found that all[dubious ] of the supportive research on NLP contained significant methodological flaws and that there were three times as many studies of a much higher quality that failed to reproduce the “extraordinary claims” made by Bandler, Grinder, and other NLP practitioners.
