Tb on this day 2019.
Laughter Evolution !

Laughter Longevity :
🔆We all know .. Laughter Yoga exercises can be based on real life situations .
These exercises are : yogic , playful and value based . Though , they are all ultimately about LETTING GO.

🔆The other day I went to the dermatologist because I had a rash and understandably , I was upset about this rash on my face .

🔆So last night in my Laughter Salon Zoom Class , I created a WORRY WART REMOVER CRÈME Laughter Exercise :
Step 1- you twist the jar open
2- inhale the aromatic lemongrass fragrance ( ooh ahh) 3- ( LEADER ) reads aloud directions : Apply generously and dab your face with Worry Wort Remover ( class follows along ) 4- LEADER continues reading directions aloud : May cause uncontrollable laughter . {PAUSES } and class laughs uproariously while ( repeat ) additional dabbing of face .

🔆Lastly , I read from the jar ( all off the cuff , while improvising ) that
“ FEAR is
IR - (RASH ) inal “ Nod nod , wink wink.

🔆At the end of the class - I love the fact , that a laughter exercise can open up a dialogue on the topic - WORRYING. ANTICIPATION. FEAR.
And so it goes .

As your bellies inflate , deflate and swell..
You’ll be under a LauGhTeR spell..if we have our way…
These court jesters are wild. ..with many games up their sleeve
So, there’s no good reason to leave…

In fact, stay for the full hour
And feel the magic of LAUGHTER Power..

As this Laughter Activators will Unearth Your Mirth..
And Glee your Chi..
We’ll giggle, wiggle and gaffaw
And LaUgH s’more..

With bubbles of froth..
We get to LaUgH it off…

Creating an OOH LA LA LaUGhTeR trance..
As we sway and dance..

And DO THE HUSTLE..DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO …
Leaving behind any BUSTLE..

Movin’ and Groovin’ and Rejuvin' into the night…

Mirthfully and Foolishly outta sight…

Gentle Dental Experience: Yesterday , I went to the Dentist and was very anxious about the Novocain injections . So I did my diaphragmatic breath exercises and I told the Dentist I was going to do some Yogic Laughing . The Dentist is from India and she mentioned that in India they believe that Laughter Is The Best Medicine. I told her about Dr Kataria and my Laughter Yogic practice . She had heard of Dr Kataria and LY . She mentioned that it was ok to laugh during the injection, which surprised me .. not wanting her to miss the spot , if I moved a bit . I laughed gently and she laughed along .. which was astounding . We both eased our stress . It was fantastic . Then I laid back , had my game changing SHOKZ headset on , to listen to some music . She gave my a comfy pillow to rest my head on , asked if I wanted to squeeze a stress ball and it was a state of the art office .. so I looked up on the ceiling and was able to watch a bit of “The Office “ with titles and sound off .
I forgot to tell her about our Dental / Mental Floss Laughter exercise .🦷

Much gratitude for your presence and support throughout the years !
Show us the Laughter Lovin .. if you can 🧡🙏🤎

Tonight at Laughter Yoga Salon NYC Zoom Room , we performed a SURREALIST Thanksgiving Dinner Exercise :
🚴🏻Marcel Duchamp rode in on his bicycle . We all rode our bicycles and laughed .
🕰️Salvador Dali was twisting his moustache and kept looking at the clock. We all twisted our mustaches and pointed to the clock , wondering if we were late for dinner . We were .. so we laughed .
🪖While Rene Magritte kept putting on and taking off his hat , we took our cue and all laughed . ..
🤹‍♀️🎻🔴 Marc Chagall wore a red nose and played his creaky sounding Violin. We did the same and added laughter .
🎏 Paul Klee was glad we served fish , as we all delighted in its taste , and shared in the laughter and ample portions .

😛Too much of a good thing gave way to BELLY ACHE LAUGHTER.

A wonderful opportunity .

Good to know .

To date : My Laughter Yoga Salon NYC has met 960 times. ( 4 of the years on zoom) Whoo Hoo! 🙏👏
