Details

Denver Laughter Club meets every Monday (except holidays) at First Unitarian Church at noon, for approximately 45 minutes, and is free and open to the public. All are welcome! Bring a smile and prepare yourself to laugh a lot for no reason whatsoever!

Based on "Laughter Yoga" principles by the founder of Laughter Yoga, Dr. Madan Kataria, from India. The laughter club movement is a world wide grass roots movement for peace since 1995, with over 5,000 laughter clubs around the world and over 250,000 plus members! Check out the Denver Laughter Club and Laughter Yoga at www.laughteryoga.org

Laughter, whether "faked or real" has a profound effect upon health: Benefits of Laughter: our bodies release "happy" chemicals, unwinds the negative effects of stress, reduces blood pressure, dumps depression, boosts the immune system, and enhances creativity and joyfulness. No jokes or comedy are used - rather, we practice laughter exercises, gentle stretches, and yogic breathing/relaxation, then end with laughter meditation (spontaneous self-directed laughter). This is playful activity - all you need is a commitment to having fun and accessing your inner sense of joy (chimpishness)! Happiness is an inside job! and Laughter truly is the best medicine!

HO HO HA HA HA! See you at Laughter Club!
