Laughter Yoga – Two open classes!
HASYA YOGA, LAUGHTER YOGA
Come and join us for a free discovery session on 5 and 12 July at 6:00pm!
Originally a medical yoga created by Indian Doctor Madan Kataria in 1995, hasya yoga or laughter yoga is now spreading all over the world. Hospitals, but also schools, universities and companies use it to reduce stress and increase performance. We too may use it for the same reasons, or just to feel better and live a more joyous life.
The concept of Laughter Yoga, a combination of deep breathing exercises from yoga and laughter exercises, is based on a scientific fact that the body cannot differentiate between fake and real laughter. One gets the same physiological and psychological benefits.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?
Laughter yoga helps release adrenaline and get rid of stress, produce dopamine which induces ease and pleasure, bring more oxygen to blood and tissues, get better quality sleep thanks to higher level of serotonin, breathe better, get stronger antibody cells and lower blood pressure. It increases positive thoughts and, when facing difficult situations, helps to take distances in order to decide with clear ideas and a positive energy. In any group, it helps neutralize conflicts and build harmony.
I discovered Laughter Yoga in India in 2009, when staying at a friend’s whose aunt would practice it everyday. Today
I am pleased to be able to share at Red Earth Centre this experience of a fun and powerful yoga that brings so much to the body and soul.
