Realizing the effectiveness of laughter, corporations and organizations have introduced Laughter Yoga into their routines and have reported dramatic changes in interactive behavior and attitude towards others.Stress and negative emotions reduce communication skills and the motivation to communicate. Laughter Yoga is a perfect exercise routine that exactly counters these effects.
As it induces unconditional laughter through group dynamics and childlike playfulness, Laughter Yoga enables people to communicate and freely express their emotions. As it is an instant stress buster, it generates positive feelings and alleviates all negative strains of thought. Laughter breaks down barriers and creates an instant connection. Laughter Yoga Helps to Express Oneself
Laughter Yoga allows people to be more open with each other. It creates a feeling of safety where issues seem less important. It allows them to express themselves more clearly because laughter helps one to think more clearly and creatively. When we laugh with others we are fun to be with and provide good company. Regular doses of laughter and play take the work out of staying in love with life and other people for a lifetime.
Laughing makes us more likeable because it reduces our tendency to gain self-confidence by analyzing and judging others. When we laugh with others, criticism and sarcasm seem to evaporate. It also promotes good will and cooperation between generations, between those with opposing viewpoints, and between nations.
