Begin the New Year with joyful laughter on Wednesday, January 4th (and every first Wednesday of the month) from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Meetinghouse of the First Universalist Society in Franklin, 262 Chestnut Street, Franklin. Laughter Yoga is a body/mind practice for well-being that involves deep breathing and a few stretches, playful laughter exercises (no jokes or comedy), clapping and deep relaxation. It has many benefits besides the joy of laughter. It can strengthen the immune system, combat the negative effects of stress, and is a powerful antidote to depression and anxiety.
Any age and any level of physical ability can participate in this uplifting experience! New laughers are always welcomed! $5 donation to the church, $10 maximum per family. Please bring your water bottle because laughing is dehydrating. Led by Certified Laughter Yoga Teachers, Linda and Bill Hamaker. See www.letslaughtoday.com. If you have any questions, just call them at (508) 660-2223 or e-mail [email protected].
