An award-winning author of over 30 books, Allen Klein loves to share how humor plays such an important role for our good health and mental well-being.   He is a self-proclaimed “jollytologist”, a person who specializes in laughter and humor.

It all started with his first book titled The Healing Power of Humor, which he wrote in 1989 after his wife died, recounting how humor had helped him get through the 3 difficult years before her death.  He shares how he went from loss to laughter, incorporating humor for every-day-challenges.  He is a recipient of a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Association for Applied Therapeutic Humor.

He captivates us with his discussion about his most recent book The Awe Factor - How a Little Bit of Wonder Can Make a Big Difference in Your Life and how we should stop and add wonder into our lives each day.  His mantra is “a little bit of wonder can make a big difference in your life.”  His sense of humor is captivating!
