Laughter is the shortest distance between two people. It can bridge language barriers, religious faiths and cultural differences. In wordless communication laughter can bind us together in a shared moment of happy human emotion.

Laughter Yoga involves deep diaphragmatic breathing, which fully oxygenates the bloodstream and major organs. It is a great way to reduce stressful thoughts, improve memory and boost your immune system.
Research shows that regular practice of Laughter Yoga generates a positive state of mind with increased optimism. Even a quick session of Laughter Yoga has a positive effect on depressed patients. Laughter, real or cultivated, is a great way to reduce stressful thoughts. Laughter Yoga is an ideal method to help people to laugh for no reason. It provides the same physiological and psychological benefits as spontaneous laughter.
