1. Laughter Yoga is a unique concept because there is no need to  rely on humor, jokes, or comedy.  There is no need to have a reason.  Just laugh!   Just laughing will lift your endorphins. 

2. Laughter Yoga exercises  includes eye contact and childlike playfulness.   Exercises will be taught in a group and how to laugh alone. Laughing will become  a contagious way to feel joyful. It soon turns into real  happiness. 
​
3.  Laughter Yoga  combines laughter exercise with yoga breathing and meditation. More oxygen flows to the body and the brain.  One will feel more energetic and healthy.

4. If done with willingness, the body cannot differentiate between fake and real laughter.  Laughter Yoga is scientifically proven that one gets the same health benefits, whether it is real or simulated.

5.  Dr. Madan Kataria, medical doctor and his wife Madhuri, a yoga teacher started LY in India  in 1995. Now,there are thousands of Laughter Yoga clubs around the world!

 How does laughing benefit health?  Why is laughing healthy?

1. Elevates Mood
Laughter Yoga can change your mood within minutes by releasing endorphins from your brain cells. This makes you feel good and if you are in a good mood you do everything better.

2. Health Benefits
Laughter yoga reduces stress and strengthens the immune system. You will stay healthier, fall sick less often and if you suffer from a chronic condition, it can help you heal faster. Laughter Yoga is also great for pain management.

3. Business Benefits
Our brain needs 25% more oxygen for optimal functioning. Laughter exercises can increase the net supply of oxygen to our body and brain, which helps to improve efficiency and performance. You will feel energetic and can work more than you normally do without getting tired.

4. Social Connector
Quality of life depends upon the quality of your friends and our relationships. Laughter is a great connector of people and you will meet lots of interesting people and develop new friendships.

5. Laughing through Challenges
Anyone can laugh when times are good but Laughter Yoga teaches people to laugh unconditionally so that they can laugh even during tough times. It provides strength in adversity, a coping mechanism to help people keep a positive mental attitude regardless of the circumstances.
