Take time to laugh along with us!
Laughter Club
Laughter is the best medicine! Laughing and smiling increases our body's natural feel good endorphins, boosts our immune system and helps lower our stress levels. Laughter Yoga involves prolonged voluntary laughter that provides similar physiological and psychological benefits to spontaneous, real, contagious laughter, which it often turns into! Lina creates a safe space in which to talk about happiness, engage in a laughter and sound meditation and relax with other members. Come and laugh yourself to health and happiness with Lina the Laughing Goddess!
Session Brief
I'm struck by how laughter connects you with people, it's impossible to maintain any kind of distance when you're just howling with laughter; laughter is a force for democracy.
-John Cleese
