fpLaugh

fpLaugh the Laughter Yoga App for better health and enjoyment of life (according to Dr. Madan Kataria).

What is Laughter Yoga? Laughter Yoga is a unique exercise developed by the Indian doctor Dr. Madan Kataria and supported by his wife Madhuri. It combines laughter exercises with yoga breathing (Pranayama) which supplies both body and brain with more oxygen making one feel more energetic and healthy. Anyone can laugh without relying on humor, jokes and comedy. Laughter is simulated as a body exercise in a group but with eye contact and childlike playfulness it turns into real and contagious laughter. It is based on the scientific fact that the body cannot tell the difference between fake and real laughter and so one gets the same health benefits. Laughter Yoga has been widely covered by media which includes prestigious publications.

Why Laughter Yoga? Everyone knows laughter is the best medicine and is good for health. But, in this performance-oriented, stressed modern world, there are not many reasons that make us laugh. In order to get the scientifically proven benefits of laughter, one must laugh for 15 to 20 minutes a day and laughter should be hearty and loud. This is not possible in real life as natural laughter is rare and only comes for a few seconds which is not enough to bring health benefits. Through Laughter Yoga one can laugh heartily for an extended period of time because it is a physical exercise and not a mental process.

Why fpLaugh? With fpLaugh you never have to laugh alone. You can choose from a growing number of laughers to animate you at home, while driving and so on. You can arrange two or more laughers into a laughing group and listen to them simultaneously. If you want to, your laughter can also become a part of the list (more information available in the app). If your laughter is part of fpLaugh you can publish information about you, your events, your laughter club and so on in fpLaugh.
