“
HAH: HUM?R AS HEALER” © – Dr. William Klinger,
University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. This presentation
is designed to help individuals utilize the healing power
of positive humor more effectively in their lives. HAH had
its birth in the early 90s’ when Doctor Willie K. was
desperately searching for the panacea to all life’s
problems. Recognizing that without a sense of humor he would
have never survived all the little surprises life had to
offer, he became reacquainted with the most vital of all
human senses – “The Sense of Humor”. Although
based on scientific principles this presentation promises
to be more comic than didactic. Come join in the laughter
and learning and add life to your years through humor.
