Add More Laughter To Life: Laughter Yoga is ideally suited for helping seniors live a more laughing life. As we grow older, we tend to laugh less and less, because of Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, often understanding of jokes is lost. This is because humour is a mental and cognitive phenomenon. Laughter Yoga is ideally suited for seniors to do laughter as a form of exercise and get multiple health benefits from it.
Promotes Physical Health: As we grow older, because of the wear and tear most seniors have many ailments like high blood pressure, diabetes, asthma and other diseases. Laughter Yoga helps in healing from illnesses by strengthening the immune system, increasing oxygen to the body and bringing a positive mental attitude.
Supports Good Mental Health: Many seniors suffer from depression, frustration and anger. As they lose loved ones and their health, it becomes increasingly difficult to maintain a positive mental attitude. Laughter Yoga changes a person’s biochemistry in a way that supports good mental health regardless of their circumstances.
Laughter Yoga Adds to Longevity: If Laughter Yoga exercise routine is practiced regularly, it gives the Elders a reason and purpose to live fully every day. AS the population becomes increasingly older every day, Laughter Yoga is a tool for transformational aging and increased longevity.
Cognitive Stimulation: Engagement in Laughter Yoga exercises stimulates the brain, promotes mental alertness and cognitive function. The Combination of laughter and gentle movement helps maintain cognitive abilities and enhance memory for seniors.
Pain Relief: Laughter triggers the release of endorphins, which act as natural painkillers. Regular laughter yoga practice may help alleviate chronic pain conditions and improve pain tolerance and improve sleeping quality.
