They say laughter is the best medicine and experts are prescribing just that to relieve stress, boost joy and even help manage anxiety and depression. A class combines laughter exercises with deep breathing for the perfect blend of emotional and physiological health benefits.

Did you know most children laugh between 300-400 times per day compared to the mere 10 chuckles of the average adult? Recapture that childlike joy and get your laugh on!

 Sustained laughter (a minimum of 15 minutes) is necessary to release all the cheery hormones and neurotransmitters of the body – your daily DOSE (Dopamine + Oxytocin + Serotonin + Endorphins) of happiness!

 Laughter is also therapeutic. Freeflow laughter is a segment of the class where laughter flows uncontrollably from you, resulting in an emotional catharsis that leaves you light and happy! Plus, learn to laugh at your problems during reframe laughter – missed a deadline? Ha ha! There’s always another one! Learn to switch off your stress arousal system simply by moving the diaphragm and you’ll never be stressed again.

Everyone needs more laughter in life and since ‘yoga’ in this case refers only to the process of yogic breathing and not the bends and poses, Laughter Yoga is open to all ages, mobilities and attitudes. Laughter Yoga is fun and healthy for the whole family, so feel free to bring the little ones along with you. Kids under five laugh free!
