Saying Yes! to Laughter Yoga is not the same as walking around laughing loudly non-stop and getting "funny looks" from people passing by. No, saying Yes! to Laughter Yoga is a deep journey to acceptance and joy. It brings a sense of feeling happy even when life is roughing you up. The choice to turn your "huh" into "ha" is within reach, whether through workshops or training, self-guided learning, or something else.
The multitude of routes to improving life for yourself and with others can be confusing, with all the offers to recreate, regenerate, revitalise, rejuvenate, and recover yourself from doom and gloom.
However, the simplest way forward is to start laughing as a practice. Laughing daily as a choice is beneficial simply because it is good for you.
How good is it, then?
Knowing the benefits, not just from an academic perspective but from lived experience, always makes me wonder why so many people still choose seriousness over laughter. It is that good.
Laughter creates a sustainable outlook that helps us manage ourselves when life breaks down into challenges and unforeseen events, both good and less good, and those things we could never have predicted in a million lifetimes.
Our bodies manufacture a wealth of "products" we can actively tap into when we choose to laugh.
Laughter enables us to cope physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially with what we face. Without laughing AT things or people, we laugh to connect with the pain and discomfort so everyone can feel safe and part of the expression we share.
Laughter Yoga is a simple practice. Many individuals, corporations, charities, and educational institutions have chosen to learn the method through training and workshops.
You have the potential to learn how to manifest a simpler life when you laugh. You can find solutions where there were none before, become a healthier human being, connect joyfully with yourself and others, and manage stress and upsets in an empowered way.
We are at the start of 2025, and now is the time to "turn your frown upside down." Miracles are known to happen when you wear a smile and share a smile.
I have many more quotes and phrases I could share, but if you feel only words can help you decide to say Yes to Laughter Yoga, then I seriously invite you to say the words (or rather the syllables) "ha ha ha ha" in front of your mirror and watch the transformation.
