Many scientific studies exist on the benefits of laughter.
Children laugh hundreds of times every day, naturally, for no reason.
Adults only laugh 12 times a day on average, whereas in the 1930s they laughed 10 times more!
To get the full benefit of laughter, it is a good practice to laugh continuously for at least 15 minutes.
How then to laugh continuously for 15 minutes?
Laughter yoga allows this. It is above all a physical and respiratory exercise.
Exercised regularly, it helps to develop a more positive mental attitude.
Usually when we laugh, it is brought on from the outside, whether it is by a funny story, a skit, it goes through the mind.
Whereas laughter in laughter yoga is laughter for no reason that does not involve the mind. It’s an inner laugh.
Laughter yoga is the only technique that allows laughter without involving the mind and thoughts.
10 minutes of laughter yoga is worth 30 minutes of cardio jogging.
No prerequisites are required from participants.
The body does not differentiate between simulated laughter and natural laughter, it is scientifically proven. With regular practice, laughter will no longer seem faked.
Laughter Yoga was created by Dr. Madan Kataria, a visionary Indian physician. He is at the origin of the movement for Peace, Happiness and Health.
