The Laughter Room - the safe space to let go and recharge
It all started during the lockdown when I realised that beside the risk of catching the virus, people were also facing the risk of developing symptoms or conditions associated to stress, anxiety and depression. I was reading articles in which psychatrists were warning about the high risks of mental health deterioration due to the uncertainty, social isolation, media neurosis created by continously broadcasting of the same panic creating information, lack of employment and so on. Things were not looking great.
I wondered if I could contribute in any way. And there it came to me. I already had a tool: Laughter Yoga.
I had been practicing Laughter Yoga for quite some time, but not on a weekly basis. Having followed a Laughter Yoga Facilitation training myself, I had been colaborating with other facilitators.
And if the lockdown had closed any opportunity of co-facilitating laughter yoga sessions in the classroom, a new environment was becoming available. Zoom became the new classroom. Zoom became the new laughter yoga room.
The Laughter Room was then created. It is a safe space, non-judgemental, in which for a brief period of time we let go of our worries and are completely in the moment. It is a safe space where lightness can be found, where child-like playfulness becomes of source of empowerment, a safe space where we can simply let go and just… laugh. It is a place where we combine laughter exercised with clapping and breathing exercices.
We have been serious for too long. And it’s alright to be serious. We need that. But we also need to ease, to relax, to play and to laugh at ourselves. This is how lightness and creativity emerge.
Laughter is the best medicine, they say. It is an excellent stress relief that relaxes the whole body, it boosts the immune system, protects the heart, lightens the anger’s heavy load, decreases pains, improves mood and the list could go on.
We, as adults, we learned & have been taught to be serious. It is said that adults laugh less then 20 times a day. Many of us don’t even laugh once. We need to laugh more, for our sake, for our family’s sake, for our health, for our community and for our future.
