A Laugh A Day Keeps The Doctor Away



So there's a saying which everyone knows of, "An Apple A Day Keeps The Doctor Away" but I am sure no one has heard of "A Laugh A Day Keeps The Doctor Away" unless you know Dr.Matan Kataria who invented the concept of laughing to a healthier life.

Dr.Katan Mataria on the right.

People do question his methods, but as his number of followers increase, well maybe there is some truth in what he does. Dr.Matan Kataria is a health doctor and also a writer for a health magazine, he says that it was one of those days when he was under a lot of stress he created the laughing yoga. He was juggling jobs between treating patients and writing for a health magazine which was really really tough and at one point he just started laughing which made him feel all better. The sudden realization of how laughter cured his stress at that moment gave him a thought, if laughter was such a good medicine why not share it? He then started a laughter club.

It started with just 5 people in a room sharing jokes, but as time passed, the club grew to what it is today.

Still finding hard to believe? Well, start laughing and figure it out.
