GIGGL.™ MENTAL WELLNESS INITIATIVE PILOT 

WHAT IS GIGGL.™ AND HOW DOES IT WORK?

Each GIGGL.™ Session stimulates different areas of the brain, addressing a dysregulated nervous system through targeted brain activity, using a unique combination of laughter-induced stress relief, multisensory stimulation, brain-training techniques, breath work practices, and social emotional learning with a foundation of expansive research. 

 

Our process is trauma-informed, simple, delivered in 5-minute immersive experiences, affordable, and only requires passive viewing and/or listening to experience its benefits. No training or preparation is required. 

MENTAL WELLNESS INCORPORATED INTO THE DAILY SCHOOL ROUTINE

GIGGL.™ redefines the conventional school curriculum by introducing a groundbreaking methodology that seamlessly integrates mental wellness into the daily school routine, strategically optimizing its advantages for both educators and students.

EYE-POPPING PILOT DATA!

Significant Decrease In School Clinic Visits (From 654 to 409).  According to Cristina Klaiber, RN, Scheurer Wellness Clinic School Nurse, there was a significant decrease in clinic visits from May 4 to June 4, 2022, with a total of 654 visits, compared to May 4 to June 4, 2023, where the number reduced to 409. This represents a remarkable 46% decline, indicating the positive impact on the health and wellness of our students.

 

Significant Reduction In Behavioral Offenses Per Day For Both Grades 6-12 (42.7%) & Grades K-5 (27.5%). Data provided by Joe Pratt, LMSW SSW, School Social Worker from the Huron Intermediate School District, revealed a significant reduction in behavioral offenses per day for both grades 6-12 (42.7%) and grades K-5 (27.5%) from April 2023 to May 2023.

 

During the second week of the pilot, the GIGGL.™ Emoticon (SEL) Survey conveyed a sense of "worry" amongst 20% of student participants. Once addressed from this feedback, there was a 12% increase in "relief" a few days later. Collection of data was anonymous and participants were identified by grade and occupation only.

 

 

Note:  Improvements were achieved without any other changes except for the introduction of the GIGGL.™ AM & PM Sessions. 

SUPERINTENDENT KEN EWALD'S ENDORSEMENT 

"Having closely observed the transformative impact of the GIGGL.™ program on students and teachers at Caseville Public School, I am confident in its ability to bring immense value to not only communities lacking adequate resources, but all communities. The program's science-backed approach has proven to be highly effective in addressing the mental health needs of individuals within our own community in a concise 30 days.

 

The GIGGL.™ mental health platform presents an invaluable opportunity to bridge the gap in behavioral health support. I firmly believe that GIGGL.™ provides a simple yet powerful tool that can create a new culture of wellness within our school community that will transform the educational system."

PRINCIPAL KEVIN PARKER'S ENDORSEMENT

"Based on the overwhelmingly positive feedback and the remarkable impact witnessed among students and teachers, I wholeheartedly recommend the GIGGL.™ program. Its ability to support mental well-being, provide solace during challenging times, and create a positive learning environment is unprecedented. The program has not only addressed individual needs but has also fostered a sense of unity and support within our educational community.


I believe that the GIGGL.™ program has the potential to positively impact education on a larger scale. Its benefits extend beyond the classroom, influencing the overall well-being of students and teachers alike. By promoting relaxation, stress relief, and a positive mindset, GIGGL.™ contributes to a conducive learning environment where students can thrive academically and emotionally."

"There were less absences, especially from the 'chronic not-showing-up kids.' And, there was more focus in class. They (my students) were actually doing their work. The kids were studying, they weren't arguing. It was really cool."
