Here’s a link to a Radio National interview conducted recently which explored the value and enormous benefits of integrating ‘play’ into the lives of adults in work and rest.

Dr Stuart Brown, founder of the National Institute for Play, is one of the interviewees. His fabulous book called ‘Play’ is a must-read. As Stuart says in his book – play is as critical to human development as sleep and nutrition. As they say – all work and no play makes Jack a very dull boy!
This is why I love my training workshops so much, because I get to invite people – kids and adults alike – to play.
In my 25+ years experience, I have discovered that play is my most potent weapon which encourages people to have fun, share, trust and learn.
