Laughter Yoga - Ease Into the Weekend
Event Details
07:00PM - 08:00PM
Learn how to use Laughter Yoga to decrease stress and anxiety and boost overall health.
Laughter Yoga is not postural yoga and requires limited physical ability, and no special exercise clothing or equipment. All that is needed is a willingness to choose to laugh. The practice is called Laughter Yoga because laughter exercises are interspersed with deep yogic breathing and gentle stretches. The breathing deepens the laughter and increases the net intake of oxygen, which boosts peak performance levels.
