What is Laughter Yoga?
 
Laughter Yoga combines Unconditional Laughter with Yogic Breathing (Pranayama).
 
Anyone can Laugh for No Reason, without relying on humor, jokes or comedy.
 
Laughter is simulated as a body exercise in a group; with eye contact and childlike playfulness, it soon turns into real and contagious laughter. 
 
The concept of Laughter Yoga is based on a scientific fact that the body cannot differentiate between fake and real laughter.
 
One gets the same physiological and psychological benefits.
