Since the spring of 2020, Laughter Yoga facilitators and teachers from around the world have been generously donating their time to help us keep our spirits up! And we’re still here!
We offer sessions on Eastern Canadian time
Pandemic… still in 2024, we need to laugh!
Why are we laughing now when the world situation continues to be serious? BECAUSE IT’S GOOD FOR OUR HEALTH! This is where laughter yoga becomes even more useful, and we need to use it to help us cope (with a cool head)! Laughing will allow us to release stress and tension, boost our immune system, see things from a more “manageable” perspective (even if we don’t have much control over what’s happening right now), be better company, connect with others who want to change their energy. Laughing will help us all to avoid falling into fear and panic! A precious help every day, and especially right now. Please make a donation to support the efforts of the animators and teachers who have been helping out since March.
How does it work?
Choose the time that suits you best and simply click on the “screen” icon (PASSWORD laugh) and you’ll find yourself directly on ZOOM for a few minutes’ laughter with other people.
*If you don’t have ZOOM on your device, you’ll be asked to download it. It’s free and safe.
The formula is simple. We laugh for 8 to 10 minutes. Then a few soothing breaths soothe and relax us. And before we leave, we express (if we wish) something for which we are grateful. It’s so simple and it feels so good. Little talk. Lots of HAHA!
Sessions every day to make sure you’re laughing for at least eight minutes (but there’s nothing to stop you continuing later in the day!). No risk of contagion… except the risk of laughing even more!
Thank you to the facilitators of the School of Laughter Yoga and to our European colleagues who have agreed to spread the joyful virus voluntarily and free of charge on ZOOM since March 2020!
Please contribute what you can.
Contraindications
In certain cases, the Laughter Yoga method is not recommended. People suffering from major, uncontrolled health problems, hernia, angina, eye problems or who have recently undergone surgery should not venture to do these exercises without the explicit advice of their doctor. Nothing prevents you from smiling or laughing softly, however. Use your common sense: no pressure, no new boo-boo!
Simply choose your preferred time from the table below and click on the “screen” icon and you’ll find yourself on ZOOM for a few minutes of laughter with other people.
If no time is indicated below the “screen” icon, there is no session at that time.
