If you want to start a 
LAUGHTER YOGA group, here's a start:



Laughter warm-ups
10 things that are almost impossible to do:
1.  Raise both eyebrows.  Now raise just one.  Now raise the other one!
2.  Lick your elbow.  Not your neighbor’s, your own!
3.  Touch your tongue to your nose.
4.  Wiggle your ears.
5.  Twitch your nose like Samantha on Bewitched.
6.  Sneeze with your eyes open.
7.  Make clockwise circles with your foot and draw the number 6 in the air with your finger.
8.  Pat your head, rub your stomach and say “she sells seashells by the sea shore.”
9.  Say your first name backwards.  Now say your first and last name backwards!
10.  Tickle yourself.  (Now tickle someone else.)

OMG. What is he saying at 22 seconds??



Laughter yoga exercises


Stop ticking me! Find a partner and pretend you’re going to tickle them.  Don’t stop tickling no matter how hard they beg you!


****************************
No, not ice down my back!  Imagine someone is putting ice down your back, and it makes you laugh!
*******************************
Magilla Gorilla: Imagine you are a 400 lb. laughing gorilla…sporting a bow tie, shorts held up by suspenders, and an undersized derby hat.  …your arms hang down to your knees!  Now chase somebody.  Don’t catch them, just chase them.
*******************************


Santa Clause laugh: Shake your jelly-belly!
“His eyes--how they twinkled! His dimples, how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
and the beard on his chin was as white as the snow.
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,
and the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath.
He had a broad face and a little round belly,
that shook when he laughed, like a bowl full of jelly.”
***************************


Helium laugh: Imagine you have a tank of helium for filling party balloons.  Now take a big hit and laugh like a munchkin!
*****************************


Woody Woodpecker:  ha-ha-ha-HA-ha! Emphasis on the fourth Ha (louder and higher pitch) and first three ha's gradually go up in pitch. 
********************************


Taunting laugh:  na na, na NA na!  Melodic childish taunting phrase, expressing a feeling of superiority or contempt for another.  Stick out your tongue and wiggle your fingers and your ears. Laughing gas laugh: Take a big hit of laughing gas….take another….now laugh!
********************************


Evil laugh: Imagine you are Dick Dastardly or Snidely Whiplash.  You are the stereotypical villain from silent movies stage melodramas, wearing a black cape and top hat, and twirling your long handlebar moustache while you laugh your evil heart out!
Now give us your best evil laugh!
*****************************


Laughing Orgasm: Imagine you are laughing so hard that it’s giving you an orgasm!
