And the Pandemmy Award Goes to… Claire my Laughter Yoga Teacher!

First of all, I’m grateful for the practice! Yoga is about breath and so is laughter! Life force energy is found in our laughter! Being silly and joyful intentionally is so good for your health and experience of the world. Especially when it feels out of control!
