HUMOR & PLAY!

Public Group active 1 month, 3 weeks ago

Who says ringing in the Shift of the ages is all serious business? It’s no secret among saints and sages that playfulness and humor can be powerful tools for moving consciousness.

This is a space dedicated to nurturing that part of you that loves to laugh, and celebrating all that inspires you to make room for play in your world. Here we gather to appreciate the social artistry of comedy in it many guises, whether used to challenge conventional wisdom, to unify, to enlighten, enchant, inspire or awaken insight. It is also a forum for actively exploring the function and significance of humor and play (in art, popular culture, relationship, spiritual practice, creative ventures, or any aspect of our lives).

Join here to: share gems of conscious humor you’ve come across; discuss your experience of humor & play as aspects of self-discovery, spirituality, or healing; converse about cultural trends in humor; showcase your own comic creations; any and all of the above. When posting videos please use the URL.

NOTE: You need not count being “funny” or “humorous” among your special talents to join. All laughter lovers and light-hearted lightworkers welcome! If you’re interested in the capacity of humor to transform perspectives and lives, the healing power of play, or the practice of light-heartedness for personal/social transformation, we invite you to share your thoughts and experiences.

Levity and a spirit of playfulness as well as constructive comments and heartfelt inquiry are encouraged. While it goes without saying here at Shift Movement, let’s take care to keep comments supportive and avoid certain modes of joking or ribbing that might belittle the views of others posting or come at another’s expense. Posts deemed inappropriate or insulting will be deleted.

THE LIBRARY OF TOTALLY RIDICULOUS AND HILARIOUS VIDEOS…EVERYONE WELCOME…:) (11 posts)

    OMG!  I am laughing so hard I am literally weeping and gasping for breath!  Good old Monty Python. The sight of John Cleese as a chicken is simply too much.!  This is exactly the sort of hilarious “time out” I hope we can collect into this space, to offset the mundane moments we all must face during the day.  Maybe we could call this “The Laugh Channel”!!!  In any case, EJ, you have captured one of the finest, silliest, most laugh-out-loud short videos of all time, and I am much in your debt. You know, the kind of whole body gasping laughter a work like this can inspire is actually GOOD for us!  Thanks again for this!  Come back anytime with more.  As the French Writer Collette once famously said of chocolate: “It’s no good having any unless you can have too much!” And so it is with humor, in our often scary, unpredictable world these days.  Onward!!!!  Love, Happiness

    Here is another of my all time favorites. It was brought to my attention by one of my friends – a therapist in Memphis.

    This one is for all you guys out there with questions about life, who you are, what it’s all about…

    This video has all my respect – It’s about major “problems” that can sometimes be laughed at :-)

    By the way – he was fired after that show – how unfair is that?

    I think that this is one of the most profound therapeutic wisdoms ever given, when you come right down to it.  it is wondrously funny, and I find myself thinking about it in many contexts.  We ALL tend to complicate things.  If you want to stop doing something, JUST STOP!!!  lol

    Lori! This is wonderful!  Really really funny!  I am just now reading her latest book.  You know, we get all so earnest about things, and forget to play and just be silly.  If you have not seen it, take a look at the Richard Simmons (?) appearance on Dave Letterman. I think it is here somewhere…  I always fall off my chair and ROFL (roll on floor laughing) when I look at it. Also, Sascha Baron Cohen as Borat is a triple hoot…  Anyone reading this who has a favorite hilariously funny video, please post, and let’s not forget to laugh our way through 2012.  It is quite possible that in the end, laughter is all that really matters…  :)   AJN
