👋 Hello Laugh Pact Pack!
I’ve been focused on breathing lately and it’s wonderful. I just finished reading a book that I highly recommend: Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art by James Nestor. It’s an easy read, compelling story, science class, history lesson, and it has an appendix that fully explains all of the exercises explored in the book. If you’re like me, you’ll find yourself flipping to the appendix to learn the exercises as you learn their history and why they’re valuable to do.
Meanwhile, I’ve been working with Laughter Yoga Master Trainer Duncan Cook on a new video series: Laughter Yoga Pranayama. We started with Kapalabhati last week and just released Anulom Vilom this week. As Duncan taught me, the two exercises go very well together. I’ve been doing them every morning. Please give them a try!
One more thing I’m excited to share… tomorrow… Friday, November 20th, a new Laughter Yoga song will be released! It’s called “Holiday Time: 4 Elements of Joy” and I’m super-excited for you to hear it! If you subscribe on YouTube and to click the notification bell 🔔, you’ll be notified when “Holiday Time” and other videos are released.
And now…without further ado… some Laughter Yoga news!
Take care & LAUGH ON!
