“The benefit that I got from the laughter is that a neck problem that I’ve had for the last three weeks has disappeared. I really enjoyed the class a lot and it’s really beneficial!”
Steve Austin, patient at St. Francis, San Francisco, CA
“What I got out of the laughter class is relief from my pain in my left lung. When I came into the class I was hurting a lot. My left lung was stinging and burning. With these exercises it started to loosen up the pain and by the end I noticed that that pain had been greatly relieved. Now I can breathe. What a relief. I wasn’t expecting it. It was like a bonus! Even my allergies loosened up.”
Sash, patient at St. Francis, San Francisco, CA
“I benefited so much from today’s session. I am so much more relaxed and am more aware of the benefits of laughter and I plan to laugh more!”
Therese Kelly, California Department of Health- WIC program

Pulmonary Rehab has never felt so good!
“It’s really making a difference.” Barbara Rife, Respiratory Therapist at Mercy San Medical Center Juan in Carmichael, CA “They want me to replace all of the exercises and just laugh!
I have them do their breathing and lift weights and then we laugh. I say, ok, now it’s time to laugh, haha hehe hoho. Then we do the laughter faces. We are incorporating it together with the regular program and they’re loving it. They’re having a ball. It’s been great for our program.
Today they were saying again, ‘we want to laugh more, we don’t want to work so hard.’ I said you can work hard and laugh at the same time. Then they go hahaha.
We are incorporating it into our hour and a half exercise program because we’re just having a blast with it. It fits together. Laughter increases their quality of life.
Now they are more excited to come to class. What’s really neat is they’ll talk to their friends who haven’t come to maintenance in a year. They’ll tell them, ‘you really should come because we’re doing a lot of fun things. We’re laughing more and that’s part of the exercise program now.’
It is fun. These guys are really enjoying it. It’s really making a difference. I tell them, take this out into your world, take it to your kids, your grandkids, your friends.
