Original airdate: 1/1/2019 | The holidays bring laughter and cheer, but laughter lasts all year long at the Perfect Christmas Tree Farm in New Jersey, and it's contagious.
Farm co-owner Cynthia Curtis is a licensed laughter yoga instructor.
"People are lonely these days. To laugh with somebody that's such a good connection," she says.
When she's not at the farm, Curtis teaches at libraries, in nursing homes, and also practices with people all over the world on Skype.
"There's one in Chicago, I usually laugh with them. An hour before that there's one in India. There's one in Belgium I laugh with," Curtis said.
The idea of laughter yoga is to force yourself to laugh for 20 minutes straight per day. To do that, groups act out mundane life experiences and try to find the humor in it.
Curtis says laughter yoga can change the situation for those who are ill, something she experienced after being diagnosed with breast cancer.
