Well it happened again last night. Leading a laughter yoga program for a group of parents, when we were finished, one participant reported to me, that even though she didn’t know her lungs were clogged before she began the session, now at the end she realized her lungs were clear. Congestion she didn’t even know was there, until we began laughing, started breaking up.
Laughter is a combination of deep inhalations and full exhalations. This rhythm acts to clear the lungs of congestion. I’ve seen it repeatedly. Someone will start coughing during the session, an indication of this process beginning.
I once had a regular laughter club member with scleroderma, a disease characterized with the build-up of skin tissue. She also reported that her lungs would clear after our laughter sessions.
