HARTFORD — Cindy Heald will present Laughter Yoga at 1 p.m. Saturday, July 19, at Pinpoint of Light, 546 Town Farm Road.
The concept of Laughter Yoga is based on a scientific fact that the body cannot differentiate between fake and real laughter. One gets the same physiological and psychological benefits.
Laughter Yoga is a revolutionary idea – simple and profound. An exercise routine, it is sweeping the world and is a complete well-being workout. Developed by a medical doctor from India, Dr. Madan Kataria, it has spread across 72 countries.
Are you someone who wants to move on and bring more laughter and joy into your life? Clinical research conducted at Bangalore, India, and in the United States has proved that laughter lowers the level of stress hormones in the blood.
Class time is approximately 60 to 90 minutes. Open donation.
There will be an opening circle and meditation at 12:30 p.m.
