Beat those January blues, get healthy and have a good laugh in the process!

Laughter Yoga was developed by an Indian medical doctor, Dr Kataria, who recongnised that hearty laughter provides a great mid body aerobic workout. It boosts your immune system - perfect for this time of year, reduces pain, can help with weight loss and is an excellent antidote for depression. Laughter yoga is based on the scientific fact that your body cannot tell the difference between real and fake laughter, thus resulting in the same health benefits, including getting fit by having a good laugh. All you need to bring is an open mind and a childlike willingness to play...

A laughter yoga session is approximately 45minutes long, it is in 3 parts - laughter exercises, laughter meditation and finishing with a guided relaxation. It is a revolutionary exercise routine which combines Unconditional Laughter with Yogic Breathing. You don't need a yoga mat or special clothes, just bring yourself!
