Popularly known as the Guru of Giggling, Dr. Kataria is the founder of Laughter Yoga Clubs - a movement that started in 1995 with just five people in a public park in Mumbai.  Amazed by the number of studies showing profound physiological and psychological benefits of laughter, Dr. Kataria decided to find a way to deliver these benefits to his patients and the rest of the world. The result is Laughter Yoga, a unique exercise routine that combines group laughter exercises with yoga breathing, which allows anyone to laugh without using humor, reduce stress, and increase productivity. Laughter Yoga has grown into a worldwide movement of more than 6,000 laughter yoga clubs in over 60 countries. It's spread rapidly in the US, Canada, Europe, Australia, Middle East, Southeast Asia, China, and Africa. This new concept has been widely covered by prestigious publications like Time Magazine, National Geographic, and the Wall Street Journal. Laughter Yoga has been featured on CNN, BBC US Networks, and the Oprah Winfrey Show. Now Dr. Kataria is a keynote, motivational, and inspirational speaker for companies, corporations, and organizations all over the world. He's also a corporate consultant for holistic health stress management, team building leadership, peak performance, and communication skills.   Show Links: Join Dr. Kataria’s Free Laughter Club on Zoom Laughter Yoga International Website Want to book Erin to speak at your organization or large scale event: Learn more here!
