HARROW Laughter Club celebrated World Laughter Day 2010 with residents in the borough telling people who laugh often will live longer.
Club members went around Rayners Lane area on Saturday May 1 and ran through the laughter exercises enjoyed by borough's good folks.
Harish Chavda, 55, of Rayners Lane, a laughter Yoga therapist who runs the club, said: “Laughter exercise brings good health to people and at the moment so many negativities, like recession, are going on in our world.
“People will get physical and mental help, physically it helps improve circulation, it is like doing aerobic exercise; mentally it is good for stress relief.”
Mr Chavda has developed a special method which involves laughing by oneself in front of a mirror at home.
“My method helps people do laughter exercise when they are back home and helps boost their self-esteem.”
The laughter practice sessions running in the club include mobile phone laughter, milkshake laughter and no money laughter, and the whole sessions end up with a ten-minute cool down relaxation.
There are 13 laughter clubs in the UK. To find further information about Harrow Laughter Club, you can visit them at: www.artofeating.co.uk
