Reclaim Your Laughter

Picture
I'm sure you have heard the phrase "Laughter is the best medicine"

​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 session you will be led through a series of breathing exercises, gentle movement, and simulated laughter. Developed by Indian physician, Dr. Madan Kataria, laughter sessions are 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 sessions are for all people - all ages and all abilities. Specific exercises can be modified to suit the abilities of the participant. Anyone can participate and everyone can benefit.
