Laughter is fun, therapeutic, and contagious! Learn Laughing Yoga as a life tool to better assist you in building resilience and navigating life’s challenges with a positive mental attitude. It’s a great way to reduce anxiety, stress, and even depression.

In this playshop, Sylvie will guide us through easy laughing yoga, a feel-good practice that combines intentional laughter with simple breathing and light movement. You don’t need any special skills or even a sense of humour, just a willingness to try.

Laughing yoga is welcoming, inclusive, and creates a sense of connection. It is suitable for people living with chronic illness, care partners, and anyone looking for a simple way to add joy and stress relief to their day. You can participate standing or seated, and you’re always encouraged to listen to your body.
