Be Willing To Be Well W/Laughter!….Ho Ho Ha Ha Ha Heheheeee…
‘Laughing Wellness’ is the birth baby of Laughter Yoga.
In Laughter Yoga we laugh as an exercise, but real laughter quickly develops. It’s a new exercise system sweeping the world. The term “Laughter Yoga” in English and other translations is the trademark of Dr. Madan Kataria and Laughter Yoga International.
Developed in India with only 5 people in 1995, it is truly a life- changing experience. We combine laughter exercise w/yoga breathing exercises to cultivate childlike playfulness and joy. By laughing we initiate powerful positive changes in our body, mind and emotions. Which then brings more oxygen to the body & brain, making one feel more energetic and healthy. The concept is based on a scientific study that the body can not differentiate between simulated and real laughter. One gets the same physiological & psychological benefits. Safe and easy, scientifically proven.
In today’s world with the constant pressures, including work, social issues, family challenges, health issues, and more, laughter plays a crucial role in promoting mental health and accountable well being. Laughter serves as a powerful support. It reduces stress, booststhe immune system, releasing natural feel good chemicals in our bodies while we’re laughing. It improves blood circulation, enhances mood, and boosts overall vitality.
Laughter also connects people quickly and easily, promoting kindness and understanding. It’s bringing people together, creating community, uplifting spirits and well being for the betterment of us all.
The world needs more Laughter Yoga leaders, teachers and ambassadors. Again, it’s my mission to get as many people certified to help build Laughter Yoga and Laughing Wellness services, gathering Laughter Warriors and Disruptors, joining Dr. Kataria, myself and so many Laughter yogis worldwide.
The bonus is “play every day your way.”
I’ll show you how I recovered from addiction, depression, anger and perfectionism.

What’s Your Story?
P.L.A.Y. ™ Your Way Every Day
Laughter has helped me promote healthy emotional, physical, and spiritual development. I use laughter as my daily cool tool.
Chapter 1. This is my own unique version of my story, from my own perspective. Now, as a grown-ass adult, I take full responsibility for every aspect of my life.
Chapter 2. That inner critic is a powerful saboteur. I used to be notorious for this quality, hiding behind perfectionism. Perfectionism isn’t realism.
Chapter 3. It’s been profound and truly a life-shifting occurrence to be able to disarm this anger and understand that it was important for me to own my failures.
Chapter 4. Once I reconnected w/myself using the laughter practice, and seeing how hard-hearted I’d become, I knew I had to wake the fun-up and make some good trouble.
Chapter 5.I continually dream of a life so grand and believe in myself, that this will be my full time service. Laughter Yogis’Z w/out borders sharing Love n Laughter all around the world.
Chapter 6. Namaste, I finally got out of my own way, shedding those limiting beliefs with laughter. Just the confidence boost I needed, so let’s celebrate life today and every day!
Chapter 7. We did not come to this planet to work 9-5 jobs for more than half our lives and be turned into worriers, instead of the warriors we really are. We are so distracted from our very self and the freedom that is our human right.
Chapter 8. Dr Madan Kataria and his wife Madhuri Kataria (co-founder of Laughter Yoga) promoting health, happiness, and world peace through laughter. very good, very good yay!
Chapter 9. I envision helping build the Laughter Yoga Revolution w/LaughingWellness, building the newest military of laughter warriors and disruptors who are armed with the most powerful weapon of all–Laughter.
Chapter 10. I’m giving you all a round of applause with childlike playfulness, for inspiring me to write this book. And, becoming my best self with Love and Laughter. Thank-You.
