Laugh Pact List: Happiness Within
👋 Hello Laugh Pact Pack!
With Laughter Yoga, we ask ourselves and others to choose to laugh. This laughter quickly becomes natural, genuine laughter. From there, spontaneous feelings of joy emerge. I think Andrew Weil’s quote is a great description of how Laughter Yoga creates joy.
I hope you enjoy today’s Laugh Pact List. Let’s create more and more joy!
Take care & LAUGH ON!

Storytime & Laughter Meditation: Spider Monkey
👋🏼 Hello Laughter Lovers!
This is a story about a little spider monkey. It’s also a story about friendship, love, grief, and laughter. The story concludes with a Laughter Meditation in honor of Godfrey and whoever you would like to honor.
This video is more candid and personal than usual. It makes me feel oddly vulnerable to share it. I debated. Nevertheless, I’m going for it. Here’s a different side of me. I hope you like it.
Laugh Pact List: Give Joy
👋 Hello Laugh Pact Pack!
As Laughter Yoga enthusiasts, I think we can deeply relate to this Eleanor Roosevelt quote. The cycle of joy is easily demonstrated through the contagious effects of laughter. With our laughter, we give joy AND receive it. I hope the picks in today’s Laugh Pact List help you both feel and give joy.
Take care & LAUGH ON!
