Debbie Friend is a wellness guru. She is an insightful, positive, and reflective professional that brings exceptional content value on various health and wellness topics. Debbie is a warm, genuine presenter with an upbeat presentation style. Recently she provided a Stress Busters webinar to our organization of around 400 employees. The event was fresh and relevant and was delivered in a way that "hit home" to our employees. It got fantastic feedback. I think the differentiator in partnering with Debbie is that she truly cares about making a positive impact in people's lives. That mantra comes across in everything she does. We would definitely use Debbie again and again and again for our wellness initiatives.

I just experienced Debbie's Laughter Yoga program at our Business Enrichment Group. I have to say that I was hesitant at first but you got me to laugh like I haven't laughed in a very long while. Thank you so much! Not only did I feel so much better than I did before you started, you even helped me get rid of my headache.

I would recommend to anyone to try Debbie Friend's Laughter Yoga.

The Laughter Yoga program presented at the Buffalo Grove Fitness Center exceeded my expectation! I could not visualize how laughter and yoga aligned or imagine the myriad of benefits. I left the class feeling upbeat, recharged, and energized! Debbie Friend is an incredible facilitator, and she shared a ton of information and tools that I now incorporate in my regular yoga practice.

(As) a manager at a large Chicago-based company, with many organizational changes occurring, I thought it (would) benefit the organization to bring in Debbie to hold a Laughter Yoga session...Debbie did a wonderful job holding the attention of all 50 participants. They were fully engaged and followed along in all the exercises...you could tell that there was a higher level of energy around the room.

This is a great session to offer employees in any environment. It taught them exercises and techniques that they could practice during any type of "stressful situation." Many of my employees (even) asked when Debbie was coming back! I would highly recommend this to any company, small or large.

Don't miss out on this experience!!!!!! Debbie did a "Yoga Laughing Session" with our office group. We had a person come in that day that was so stressed. You could almost feel the weight of the world on her shoulders. We all saw an amazing transformation in our co-worker. We were laughing and felt the ease of frustration all leaving our stressed-out minds and bodies. But our co-worker, she jumped up after the "Yoga Laughing Session" beaming with an ear-to-ear smile. We all found her smile incredibly contagious. It was as though the person that had the most stress, released it with such energy, it took us all by surprise. There was something unique about the experience; it was special, but it also had a uniting factor among the group, something I didn't expect. I had entered with skepticism, but left with soft shoulders, general peace and calmness, and a lot more confidence in the power of laughter.

Debbie Friend conducted a Laughter Yoga session with a diverse group of women my firm has been working with. Many of these women had been out of work for many months and have had tremendous hardships. Our goal was to provide stress relief during a very trying time of their lives. The Laughter Yoga session Debbie facilitated surpassed my expectations as well as many of those who participated. Debbie worked withing the time (only 45 minutes) and facility parameters (conference room) provided. During this short time, we witnessed an amazing transformation of naysayers into positive, optimistic individuals that left the meeting refreshed and recharged. I credit Debbie for choosing the appropriate activities for this group and thank her profoundly.

Debbie is the warmest, friendliest person you will ever meet. Her presence in the room is automatically calming. The classes she leads are fun-filled and relaxing. She is very focused on the needs of her students and knows precisely how to tailor the class to meet everyone's individual needs. I always feel better about myself when I leave her class.

It was great that Health Wave coordinated this session and brought it to the campus. Here we talk so much about engagement, and the real theme behind engagement is that happy workers are more productive workers. The whole site would benefit more from activities like this that promote positivity at the workplace. More sessions of this type or similar is a win-win for the company. Surprisingly I was able to loosen up and relax during this class. I felt that it gave me more energy throughout the rest of the day.
