THE CLOWN AS HEALER

​

Clowning is universally healing. In countries such as Brazil, Israel, Poland, and Argentina clowns are an integral part of the medical staff in hospitals and are essential to the support of the nervous system for patients and those who love them.  The clown breaks all the rules and judges nothing. The clown sees everything for the first time. There is no good or bad, no healthy or sick. The clown celebrates failure. The clown empowers the patient who feels they have lost their strength, dignity, hope and power. The clown wears her heart on the outside of her body and shares it with you joyfully, honestly and fearlessly.  She dances, sings, listens, plays and cries with you or for you. The clown celebrates life in the present moment and sees you and loves you because you are you.

ADULTS AND CHILDREN
ANYWHERE AND ALWAYS
If you, your child, a family member or a friend is in the hospital, in the dumps, recovering from a traumatic event, healing from an injury, an accident, a broken heart or a surgery, consider a personal clown visit. Laughter is resourcing and builds resiliency in the nervous system; it reminds the body it knows joy and it can feel good. Laughter and creativity is life.

​

TURN DOWN THE STRESS AND BRING THE JOY
A clown or clown duo can also accompany you or you and your child to a procedure, a doctor’s appointment, before and after surgeries, tests, etc. The clown can support you anywhere- you don't have to wait for a crisis or emergency situation to get some clown love.

FAMILY SUPPORT
Clowns are also great to shake up relational dynamics in any stuck, heavy or complicated family dynamic. A new baby, new school, pre or post traumatic events, moving, divorce, or simply any time that you feel the need to infuse your home or work environment with more lightness, laughter and joy - invite a clown or two (or three) over to a family dinner, a gathering, or a big family meeting and change up the game for everyone.
