MEMBERS of the Harrow Laughter Club went around Rayners Lane to greet residents with their laughter exercise and funny costume.
The Rayners Lane based club, one of 13 across the country, celebrated World Laughter Day with the locals on Saturday May 1, aiming to bring good health, happiness and stress relief to people.
Harish Chavda, 55, of Rayners Lane, a laughter Yoga therapist who runs the club, said: “Our 30 members went out at Rayners Lane, people were amused by our funny dresses and hats, they approached us and asked what laughter yoga is all about.”
The club's group exercises include mobile phone laughter, milkshake laughter and no money laughter.
He said: “Everybody lives a stressed life; money is a serious issue for us; we used to laugh when we were young, we do not laugh now because life have become serious, these exercise let people laugh for no reason.”
“People get physical and mental help, physically it helps improve circulation, like doing aerobic exercise; mentally it is good for stress relief.”
Mr Chavda has also developed a method which helps individual practise laughter alone at home.
