Laughter is truly the best medicine - no need for a
prescription, no unpleasant aftertaste, no side effects, and
best of all - it's FREE!
The average child laughs between 300 and 400 times per day.
By the time we reach adulthood we are reduced to laughing,
on average, only 12 times a day!
Laughter has been proven to reduce stress, pain, and
depression while improving creativity, physical vitality and
a sense of well being.
During a laughter yoga session you will be led through a
series of breathing exercises, gentle movement, and
simulated laughter. Developed by Indian physician, Dr. Madan
Kataria, laughter yoga is designed to help people connect
with their inner child and re-discover joy, spontaneity, and
creativity.
You will laugh like you have never laughed before, and you
will leave refreshed and invigorated. You will do this for
no reason at all, except improving your health and
well-being. People of all ages, religions and ethnicities
laugh together. It is a great way to build bridges and
promote peace in the community.
Laughter yoga is for all people - all ages and all
abilities. Specific exercises can be modified to suit the
abilities of the participant. Anyone can practice laughter
yoga and everyone can benefit.
Laughter is an important part of Remembering to Play.
