Day 6: Ha ha

My clue for Wednesday – ha ha. Just simply ha ha. And this story will end with a quote 'We have been laughing here for seven years'.

I had signed up to become a laughter yoga leader - my certification will come through next weekend back in Germany. I have always been passionate about yoga, and I laugh a lot so a natural combination? No. I just wanted to learn and be able to share what could be a useful tool.

Carl had scouted around in NYC and found a laughter yoga teacher and centre and got us both invited for a session! And we had a private chit chat with Vishwa Prakash, a laughter yoga trainer of trainers at yogalaff.

We laughed our heads off for a good hour.


Not sure why I was attempting a lion here - but a bad one.



That's Vishwa with the laughter yoga t-shirt on.

 Laughter yoga became all the laugh in 1995 with Dr. Madan and Madhuri Kataria, the founders. Today there are laughter clubs spread across the globe and people gather to laugh. I will elaborate more once I complete my training.

Carl and I hauled our jaws sore from laughing so hard to 'Chi' and IndoChine restaurant to end the evening with gorgeous food and orange-ginger margaritas!

And the line that stayed in my head – when Vishwa said 'We have been laughing here for the last seven years.' Just a bizarre line - one that I will want to repeat soon.
