This practice is good for those who experience depression.
This video will demonstrate how to practice a pranayama technique known as Breath of Joy and also give a short session of laughing yoga. Both techniques are designed to get the blood flowing and stimulate the third and fourth chakras – our centers of motivation and compassion respectively. Our brains are often thought of as the ultimate control center, but they also respond to feedback from our bodies – mimicking the action of laughter causes our brains to produce the same neurochemicals as it would if we were laughing spontaneously. For this reason, laughing yoga is especially helpful for people dealing with depression. -NYV0064C
