Dr. T Latrice | Laughter Yoga

Laughter as Medicine

A New Healing Practice Is Here

Yes, we’re laughing on purpose. And yes—it actually helps.

Laughter Yoga combines intentional laughter with deep yogic breathing and gentle, playful movement.

You don’t need jokes, a sense of humor, or even to feel happy to begin. Your body responds to the laughter, real or intentional, just the same.

Benefits of Laughter Yoga:

✨ Emotional release
✨ Nervous system regulation
✨ Boosted mood + energy
✨ Connection with self + others

Why Laughter Yoga for Trauma + Grief?

Grief and trauma often leave us feeling breathless, heavy, and alone. Laughter Yoga offers a gentle way back to breath, voice, and joy. There’s no need to “feel ready.” There’s no pressure to pretend. Just show up as you are.

Move Stuck Energy

There’s no need to “feel ready.” There’s no pressure to pretend. Just show up as you are.

Ease the Weight of Sorrow

In shared laughter, sorrow softens. Even momentary relief can remind us that lightness is still possible.

Access Joy, Gently

You don’t need to “feel happy” to participate. This practice makes space for joy to emerge without force or pressure.

Rebuild Body Trust

Laughter invites safety, breath, and awareness back into the body—restoring connection where trauma may have fractured it.

How It’s Used in My Practice

As part of my trauma-informed approach, I offer Laughter Yoga in supportive, healing spaces:

Grief Support Sessions

Trauma Recovery Groups

Workshops + Retreats

1:1 Healing Sessions (by request)

This isn’t about bypassing pain. It’s about making room for light, breath, and laughter—alongside your healing.

Wherever you are in your healing journey, Laughter Yoga can meet you there, with compassion, presence, and a spark of joy.
