MEMBERS of the Harrow Laughter Club hit to streets to greet passers-by with their special laughter exercises and funny costumes.
The group, one of 13 across the country, celebrated World Laughter Day with locals on Saturday May 1 and aimed 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 in Rayners Lane and people were amused by our funny dresses and hats.
"They approached us and asked what laughter yoga is all about."
The club meets once a month at Harrow Quakers Meeting Hall in Rayners Lane, South Harrow to conduct group exercises that create spontaneous chuckling.
Mr Chavda said: “Everybody lives a stressed life and money is a serious issue for us.
"We used to laugh when we were young but we do not laugh now because life have become serious and these exercise let people laugh for no reason.
"People get physical and mental help and physically it helps improve circulation, like doing aerobic exercise, and mentally it is good for stress relief."
Mr Chavda has also developed a method which helps individual practise laughter alone at home.
