Laughter Yoga is ideal for senior citizens. It can be adapted for physical and cognitive limitations while providing many health benefits.

Oftentimes, seniors struggle with cognitive decline in which it becomes difficult to understand humor. Laughter Yoga is about simulated laughter and does not rely on humor to achieve benefits.

Many elderly suffer from depression and frustration as they lose loved ones and deal with the challenges of aging. Laughter Yoga supports the feel-good chemicals in the body supporting good mental health regardless of circumstances.

It may be difficult for seniors to make meaningful connections. Laughter Yoga offers a unique, fun way to bond with others easing feelings of isolation.

Seniors with difficulty sleeping found that Laughter Yoga exercises were helpful in getting a better quality of sleep.
