it’s about time we let go and laugh more
now there was a time I looked for
something or someone to make me laugh
but when I depended on those external
factors
I went days without laughing until I
found laughter yoga laughter yoga gave
me a safe space to connect with others
and laugh and I was so impassionate by
its that I became a laughter teacher I’m
going to invite you now in this session
of laughter yoga I want you all to stand
in your glory all right now I have to
say something when we start laughing it
always feels slightly uncomfortable so
to help us with that I want you to do
this what you’re doing right now is
shooing away all the judges that sit on
your shoulders day in and day out
judging you they’re gone the next thing
we’re gonna do take your hands spread
are your hands tingling
we’re alive alright now we have a saying
and laughter yoga fake it fake it till
you make it but even if you don’t make
it it doesn’t matter because science
proves that regardless of whether the
laughter is real or fake the body makes
no distinction so when you engage in
this action called laughter the body
follows suit and you start feeling the
emotion connected to laughter this is
how we actually help decrease the
cortisol in our body and increase
endorphins so let’s do it
now we got to get out of our heads so
we’re gonna do this laughter exercise
called the brain wash so follow me put
your hands like this and we’re gonna
unzip with a sound e
[Applause]
ah very good okay let’s do another one
we gotta get into the nooks and crannies
of the brain so we got something called
the Mental Floss so you’re going to take
your floss and put it over your heads
and guess what start flossing take a
deep breath these I am statements are so
important and so powerful we’re going to
catch our breath
we’re going to take a deep breath in and
we are going to say I am strong I am
strong exhale I am healthy
inhale I am strong
exhale I am healthy and one more time
bring it together hands on two hearts thank you
