Deception Bay Neighbourhood Centre sparks laughter club trial

Laughter clubs help lift spirits and heart rate (gently), are absolutely welcoming and, yes, they are fun.

• You don’t need to know anyone to come along. You become part of ‘the gang’ within minutes.
• You don’t need to be in a good mood.
• You don’t need to know or ‘get’ jokes.
• It’s not ageist.  Anyone of any age or ability is welcome.

Laughter is a natural stress reliever, helps regulate the nervous system, and creates a shared sense of belonging.

For families, laughing together can strengthen relationships, improve mood, and build resilience during challenging times.

The sense of social connection experienced while doing group laughter yoga exercises often continues afterwards, in conversations and new friendships.
