Laughter Yoga Waiver and Release

Welcome!

I am so delighted to have you join me in this joyful practice. Laughter Yoga involves voluntary laughter and breathing exercises designed to enhance well-being. Your safety and comfort are my utmost priority

Health Considerations

While Laughter Yoga is generally safe for most people, certain health conditions may require caution or medical advice:

1. Respiratory Conditions: Individuals with severe respiratory issues, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma, may find the breathing exercises challenging. Please consult your healthcare provider before participating.

2. Cardiovascular Conditions: People with conditions such as hypertension or heart disease should seek medical advice, as intense laughter can temporarily increase heart rate and blood pressure.

3. Mental Health Conditions: Those with severe anxiety, psychosis, or other mental health conditions may find the group setting or forced laughter overwhelming. It is advisable to consult a mental health professional before engaging in Laughter Yoga. In general, if you have any specific health concerns, please evaluate your suitability for Laughter Yoga and seek guidance from healthcare professionals.
