MEDIA, Pa. (WPVI) — Alexa Fong Drubay is a local practioner, master trainer, and all-around global ambassador of a growing movement in wellness called Laughter Yoga.<\/p>\n
Founded 30 years ago by a medical doctor in India, Madan Kataria, laughter yoga does not involve poses. It is a series of simple movements, yogic breathing, and exercises designed to elicit intentional laughter.<\/p>\n
The benefits can include stress relief and feeling connected, and it can help with anxiety, social isolation, and more. Laughter yoga can be practiced in-person or virtually, and Alexa leads both types of groups in the Philadelphia area. There are as many at 20,000 laughter clubs in 120 countries around the world.<\/p>\n
