Laughter Yoga
A few years ago, Dr Madan Kataria, a doctor from Mumbai, India, wrote an article called ‘Laughter -
The Best Medicine’. In the article, he said people shouldn't be sad all the time. They should laugh
more: laughing is good for your health. He decided to test his idea so he went to his local park with
four other people and spent the day laughing. This was the first laughter club. Other people in the park
enjoyed watching them and wanted to join their club. Soon there were fifty people in the group.
At first, they stood in a circle while one person told a joke or a funny story. Everybody enjoyed the
jokes and stories and felt good for the rest of the day. But after two weeks, there was a problem. People
had no more jokes to tell. Then Dr Kataria had a new idea. He decided that our bodies cannot tell the
difference between fake and real laughter. He decided that we can teach ourselves to laugh. He tried
this with the group and the results were amazing. At first people acted their laughter, but after ten
minutes everybody was laughing naturally. It was the start of laughter yoga. Today laughter yoga is
popular all over the world.
