Exciting Announcement from Laughter Yoga USA!
We are thrilled to unveil a new Laughter Club on Zoom!Laughter Yoga is a global laughter exercise program created by Indian physician Dr. Madan Kataria in Mumbai in 1995. What started out as a laughter group laughing at jokes evolved into participants laughing mindfully and intentionally for their health. Research data shows that even fabricated laughter (when engaging the diaphram) can offer serious health benefits. Already the intake of more oxygen is a good thing for circulation and deep breaths are calming to the parasympathetic nervous system.
Prolonged laughter can activate those happy hormones and participants can benefit from increased dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin and endorphins, while lowering their stress hormone (cortisol) levels.When we laugh together we feel the stress melt away and this positive connection with others (we don't laugh at, we laugh with others) is uplifting and promotes joy , self confidence and connection.
How to prepare:
No experience necessary. Only the willingness to laugh more. Pack a bottle of water to keep hydrated. Invite a grumpy friend or family member : )
No special attire or equipment needed. No yoga mats.
All exercises can be performed seated or standing. We incorporate gentle improvisational movements and everyone can go at their own pace.Laughter Leaders
The sessions will be led by rotating Laughter Yoga professionals from around the United States. This is a great way to get to meet the many, very dedicated laughter yogis who are doing a great job at spreading laughter in various communities.If you wish to learn more and might be interested in becoming a Certified Laughter Yoga Leader, let us know and we can provide you with more information.
