I have been celebrating world laughter day in London organising events there for the past 4 years and already had my usual world laughter day London event advertised before the world changed so suddenly!
As the date was drawing closer it became clear that there would not be a world laughter day event happening in London due to social distancing and the covid-19 pandemic. We are all
The world needs laughter right now more than ever as it can provide a release from current goings on, a stress release, a mood lift and overall well-being boost for mind, body and soul and it can totally help us at times of adversity!
I decided to invite laughter yoga colleagues to join me in sharing Love, Peace and Joy through laughter together as we are all in this together, we are one world! #oneworld I also invited Dr Madan Kataria (founder of laughter yoga in India) to join us and Dr Kataria said YES! How awesome is this.
So this was the birth of World Laughter Day Zoomathon for 2020. Opening Ceremony at 8am, moving on to Judith in New Zealand and bouncing around the globe all day until we finish off at around midnight in Brazil!
You are invited to join us from wherever you are, you can pop in and out as you please throughout the day/night. We have 16 hours of laughter, relaxation and joyful activities for you and it is FREE of charge. Everyone is donating their time to this beautiful day.
