GIVE LAUGHTER YOGA A GO
Finding laughter and positivity in daily life needs to be intentional – don’t leave it to chance.
It’s hard to think of anything more awkward than getting together with a bunch of strangers and pretending to laugh. But the magic of Laughter Yoga is that what starts out as forced mirth – ho, ho, ho, ha, ha, ha – soon turns into hilarious, spontaneous laughter that becomes infectious. A typical session for instance, involves a mix of clapping, laughing and gentle breathing and body movements.
It’s a mindfulness exercise that puts you in the moment. You can do Laughter Yoga by yourself but it’s a more intense experience if you’re with other people because you bounce off each other. If you can’t find a Laughter Yoga group in your area, Laughter Yoga Australia has details of in person Laughter Yoga clubs in each state as well as online laughter yoga clubs.
