Laughter Yoga is a deceptively simple, yet very powerful and potentially life-changing form of exercise that anybody can do — anytime, anywhere. Its core premise is that your body can and knows how to laugh, regardless of what your mind has to say.

You do not need to have a sense of humor, know jokes, or even be happy. Laughter Yoga invites you to fake it until it becomes real.

This is not the typical yoga with downward dog and warrior poses! It is the deep breathing mixed with laughter exercises and laughter meditation that has similarities to traditional yoga.
