Recess is not just for kids anymore because Laughing At & Understanding Good Humor Seminars (LAUGHS) is offering employees humor and laughter breaks at work. A lot of employees are suffering from AADS (Acquired Amusement Deficiency Syndrome). This is due in large part to corporations reorganizations, layoffs, mergers, corporate buyouts, high unemployment, stress at work, and at home. As a result, it appears that humor and laughter have also been terminated or laid off from many businesses and corporations. It's gotten to the point where some employees are screaming "Show Me The Funny." LaughsRUs is hearing this loud and clear and has responded by launching Restless Employees Can Engage in Silly Sessions (R.E.C.E.S.S)
RECESS puts the fun back in funny. Research has shown that laughter and humor is an invaluable asset for everyone. Employees that are allowed to be playful at work are much more productive, less anxious, feel better about their agency and are more creative. RECESS is a stress buster for today's employees by taking the edge off of their Acquired Amusement Deficiency Syndrome.
The typical length of RECESS is an hour but can be expanded to two hours if the need exists. The employees engage in a variety of zany interactive games and exercises to tickle their funny bones, energize their body and helps them to lighten up.
An additional feature of R.E.C.E.S.S. is helping the employers and employees to create a fun-working environment. This novel concept is being implemented in many corporations large and small across the country. Humor, laughter and fun are worthwhile assets that will add a new and positive dimension to any work environment. The bottom line is that the benefits of humor and laughter at work really do have "measurable outcomes." According to philosopher John Dewey: "To be playful and serious at the same time is possible and it defines the ideal mental condition."
