World Laughter Day 2020 zoomathon laughing with the world from 14 countries, 28 laughter professionals for 16 hours!

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!

World Laughter Day 2017 in London infecting London with Laughter and Joy

We had such an incredible day for World Laughter Day in London. Our day started with an hour or so of Laughter Yoga in the park. In the video you can see our laughter meditation in the very beautiful Victoria Embankment Gardens. It is fabulous with so many different types of laughs.

I think the sun must have heard our laughter and then it popped out to join us Ha Ha.  We then headed to Trafalgar Square for some more laughter. A lunch stop and then laughter on the Tube until we reached our final destination at Piccadilly Circus.

A fabulous day with a lovely group of willing laughers, big ones and little ones. It was great to have a few toddlers in the group.

Until next year, when we will do it again.

A few more snap shots from the fabulous day.

Laughter Meditation on World Laughter Day

World Laughter Day takes place on the first Sunday of May.  This year it falls on 7th May. The first celebration was in India almost 20 years ago and was arranged by Dr. Madan Kataria, founder of Laughter Yoga.

Laughter Yoga says: Laughter is a positive and powerful emotion that has all the ingredients required for individuals to change themselves and to change the world in a peaceful and positive way.

Our mission to bring good health joy and world peace through laughter.

On this day the laughter club members and their friends and families get together in important squares public parks to laugh together and pray for world peace.

How Can We Bring World Peace Through Laughter?

Laughter is a universal language we all speak without any language barrier. Laughter Clubs are a powerful tool to connect people from different cultures and countries and provide social network of people who care for each other. By setting up laughter clubs all over the world we are creating a worldwide community of like-minded people who believe virtues like unconditional love and laughter generosity & forgiveness.

Formula is very simple -When you laugh; you change and when you change the world changes around you.

It was unbelievable to be totally blessed with Glorious Sunshine which seemed to appear from nowhere, such a beautiful day.  We crawled just a few minutes walk away to enjoy the sunshine and laughter in a local park at Embankment. The flowers were out in abundance, just perfect.

I must say this is as far as we crawled and this turned out to be perfect to enjoy a few hours! of laughter, fun and games in the sunshine.

Just a few snapshots and a short video clip of our day, a day to celebrate Laughter Yoga, Love, Peace and Happiness.

Love Peace and Happiness exercise created just for World Laughter Day by Suz.
