Laughter helps your organs function better, such as helping your lungs take in more air, making better airflow for your heart and muscles. Laughter also helps maintain your stress levels and even can raise or lower your blood pressure leaving you with a feeling of relaxation. It also influences the increase of the endorphins that your brain releases and can aid your muscles in relaxing.
In a way, laughter can help you in the same way that practicing yoga helps you.
Better breathing, maintaining stress levels, promoting a healthy mind and relieving tension, among many other benefits, are all things that practicing yoga comes with.
So basically yoga and laughter can provide you with the same things and act ‘medicinal’ by helping your organs, managing stress levels, providing blood pressure maintenance, and helping you to just keep breathing. These quotes are about to combine yoga and laughter by providing the very best funny yoga sayings that can be found on the internet.
