$20Start our new season with a good laugh with Donna Bernstein, RD, CDN, Certified Laughter Yoga Leader
For centuries, laughter was referred to as the best medicine for body and mind, but never was there a reliable delivery system. Laughter was simply the end result of entertainment or amusement, but Laughter Yoga has taken laughter to a new level. It is a complete delivery system, allowing laughter to actually be prescribed as part of a daily routine in order to realize all of the health benefits. It enables everyone to laugh, even those who are serious, introverted and uncomfortable being funny.
Join us for an uproarious evening that will:
- Elevate your mood by releasing endorphins
- Benefit your health by reducing stress
- Strengthen your immune system
- Bring more oxygen to the brain, improving brain function, efficiency and performance
- Connect you with others and leave you with a sense of wellbeing
What is Laughter Yoga?
Laughter Yoga is an exercise that combines laughter exercises with yoga breathing – bringing more Oxygen to body and brain, helping you feel more energetic and healthy. But don’t take our word for it, watch this news clip:
