• Stomach upset
• Sleep problems
• Stress headaches
• Back pain
• Chest Pain

Some people engage in unhealthy activities like overeating or under-eating to loosen up. Fortunately, there some are simple and more harmless way to manage stress and make sure it does not affect your performance and life. Laughter yoga or, to some, laughter therapy, is a simple way to relieve anxiety and other negative emotions. As the name implies, all you need is to have a few good laughs to help you manage the pressure and improve your outlook.
