  Wednesday Evening Laughter Club - Come and enjoy the benefits of a good laugh!
  1. Good Mood and More Laughter: Laughter Club helps to change the mood within minutes by releasing certain chemicals from your brain cells called endorphins. You will remain cheerful and in a good mood throughout the day and will laugh more than you normally do.

  2. Healthy Exercise to Beat Stress: Laughter is like an aerobic exercise (cardio workout) which brings more oxygen to the body and brain which makes one feel more healthy and energetic.

  3. Health Benefits: You can’t enjoy life if you are sick. Laughter Club strengthens the immune system which not only prevents you from falling sick, but also helps to heal a variety of illnesses.

  4. Quality of Life: Laughter is a positive energy which helps to connect with people quickly and improves relationships. If you laugh more, you will attract many friends.

  5. Positive Attitude in Challenging Times: Laughter helps to create a positive mental state to deal with negative situations and negative people. It gives hope and optimism to cope with difficult times.
