The Human Reset Experience™

A reset your team can actually feel.

For teams who are showing up, but quietly running on empty.

HappiSpace creates professionally facilitated Human Reset Experiences for tired, stressed and overloaded teams, in Johannesburg and onsite. People release pressure, reconnect, and leave with practical tools they keep.

The results

What changes, and how we know.

31.9%

Average drop in cortisol reported in published research on laughter interventions. That's the science we build on, not a promise about your session.

Kramer & Leitão, PLOS One, 2023
73%

Employees who strongly agree their organisation cares about their wellbeing are 73% less likely to feel burned out.

Gallup
40 min

About the length of a long meeting. How the room feels is checked on the way in and on the way out: anonymous, aggregate and self-reported.

The Felt Shift Index™ · pilot, every session
Proof

“This shifted something in our team that no previous initiative has touched. The impact was still visible a month later.”

Why now

Your team looks fine. That's the problem.

Overloaded teams don't fail loudly. They keep showing up while energy, connection and capacity quietly drop. By the time it shows, you're counting resignations.

The method

Felt in the room. Tracked responsibly.

One facilitated sequence, no sharing, no spotlight. Before and after, everyone rates how they're carrying the day: anonymous, aggregate, self-reported. That's the Felt Shift Index™, piloting free at every session.

Common questions

Asked before almost every booking.

What is HappiSpace?
HappiSpace is a Johannesburg-based corporate wellbeing company founded by Shareen Richter. It runs The Human Reset Experience™: professionally facilitated team resets at the Fairmount venue or on-site, measured with a simple, anonymous before-and-after pulse.
Will anyone be put on the spot?
No. No sharing, no performing, no physical contact. Everything is opt-in, and the sceptics at the back are usually the ones laughing first.
Is this laughter yoga or comedy?
Neither. It's a facilitated method built on nervous-system science. Laughter is one tool in the kit, never the whole session, and nobody has to be funny.
What do we get afterwards?
A short, anonymous summary of the before-and-after shift: aggregate, self-reported and POPIA-safe. Something you can share internally.
What does it cost?
Every team is different, so pricing is tailored to group size and format. Tell us what you're planning and you'll have a proposal within one working day.
Where does it happen?
At the HappiSpace venue in Fairmount, Johannesburg, or we bring the full experience to your offices, conference or offsite anywhere in South Africa.
Do you run corporate wellness days?
Yes, full-day wellness days for up to 60 people are one of our core experiences, at the Fairmount venue or your offices, with the Felt Shift Index™ pilot measuring the shift on the way in and out.
Can you bring the reset pods to our offices?
Yes. The Talk + Reset Pods option pairs the Human Reset talk with pods set up at your office or wellness day: zero-gravity chairs, VR journeys, sound and breath stations. Everything arrives, gets set up, and is gone by the end of the day.
Is it safe for a mixed, modern workplace?
Yes. Non-clinical, religiously inclusive, sober-living safe and neurodivergent-friendly, with no spiritual content. Built for mixed groups in real South African rooms since 2009.
The part they remember

Mostly, people just leave lighter.

The summary is for whoever signed it off. This part is for them: the exhale, the real laugh, the walk back to the desk feeling like themselves again.
