History of Laughter Yoga, Dr Kataria
Laughter Yoga was started in 1995 by Madan Kataria, a medical doctor, who was writing a medical journal on the benefits of laughter. The Dr Kataria decided to practice laughter rather than just write about it.
The Doctor, his wife, who is a Yoga Teacher, and 3 friends went to a Mumbai Park and told jokes and soon had 50 people joining them each day in laughter.
After two weeks the jokes were stale and not really funny and some of the group complained. Dr Kataria said wait let me sleep on this.
Children don't need a reason to laugh. Laughter is contagious. Laughter is the best medicine. So can we learn to laugh with out jokes, humor or comedy? Yes, they did. Laughter Yoga was born!!
There are over 6000 groups in 60 some countries.
