Annie Harvey

Annie did her laughter yoga training in Australia in 2015. In her 50th year, 2017, as part of her 50 new things, Annie applied to be a TEDx speaker and managed to get 1,000 people laughing out loud in her 5 minute TEDx talk. 

Previously a school teacher, Annie now travels around Australia delivering her keynote talk called the Inner MBA, giving strategies to help prevent burnout and empathy fatigue, and has written a #1 Amazon best seller, The Little Book of Still. 

As a mindfulness teacher, in 2020, Annie was asked to help reduce the stress of some local educators and pre-schoolers and the idea of the Giggle Game was born. The mindfulness based laughter resource is helping children and educators across Australia co-regulate in a short and fun way. One of Annie’s visions for the GG is to get 4yr olds to play the game with elderly people, and something close to Annie’s heart, get people with dementia laughing again.
