Jeanne McLAUGHlin, (LAUGH is in the name) is a certified Laugh-a Yoga teacher who trained with Bharata Wingham at Yogaville, Buckingham, VA.

Laugh- a Yoga® or laughing yoga is from Hasya yoga found in ancient Sanskrit.  Laughling yoga is an easy yoga, not a traditional yoga with hard poses, but laughing and playing games that everyone can do regardless of age or ability.  Bring a Yoga mat or blanket. You may want to bring a small pillow for under your head or knees.

Jeanne teaches Laugh-a Yoga® at nursing homes and at The Yoma Room Wellness Center in Saxonburg, PA. 

Laughing for no reason and playing laughter games will release endorphins and T-cells to immediately increase energy, immunity, creativity and confidence. It is believed that laughing can help alleviate depression and may help the grieving process by releasing deep seated emotions.  Discover why prolonged intentional laughter is being recognized by the medical world as a therapeutic method for a healthy lifestyle.

Laugh- a Yoga® is a new idea for reconnecting us to our true self.  Through a yogic laughter session, Yoga nidra (guided deep relaxation), pranayama (yogic breathing practices) and laughing meditation we can reach a profound level of peace, joy and relaxation.
