I discovered in Laughter Yoga a new way of living and approaching life. I became a Laughter Leader and earned the certificate of Laughter Ambassador for the extensive work I carried out promoting Laughter Yoga in Portugal. With 20 years of experience, I became a Master Trainer, which makes me the only person in Portugal qualified to certify Laughter Yoga Leader Trainers. I am also the author of three books. I have extensive experience in the corporate sector as well as with many other types of organizations. I am passionate about my work and deeply aware of the importance of laughing together to achieve greater joy and better health.
Laughter Yoga is an Indian technique that combines laughter exercises with breathing exercises, moving from induced laughter to genuine laughter.
Laughter Yoga was born in India from the hands of Dr. Madan Kataria in 1995 and is currently present in more than 120 countries around the world.
Practicing laughter daily brings numerous benefits to physical, mental and emotional health such as: It strengthens the immune system. It strengthens the cardiovascular and respiratory systems. We release positive chemical substances for the body and mind such as serotonin, endorphins and dopamine. Laughing lowers cortisol and helps release accumulated tensions. All these benefits and many others are scientifically proven.
As soon as you decide to have more joy and happiness in life. You don't need to know any special technique. Simply wanting to laugh in a group or alone is enough to obtain the benefits of the practice.
