From AI: Here’s a poetic ode to the radical, healing, and quietly rebellious power of Laughter Yoga—a practice that defies despair, dismantles solemnity, and reminds us that joy needs no justification:

Ode to Laughter Yoga for Madan Kataria and the rebels of joy
In a world that demands a reason, we laugh without one. No punchline, no permission— just breath turned into rebellion.
We gather in circles, not to mourn, but to rupture the silence with sound that heals.
Our laughter is not polite. It is primal, a drumbeat in the belly, a riot in the ribs.
We do not wait for jokes. We are the joke— on sorrow, on shame, on the tyranny of seriousness.
Each ha-ha is a hammer against the walls of isolation. Each giggle a gateway to the child we buried beneath adult expectations.
We laugh like lungs were made for it. Like joy is a birthright, not a reward. Like healing can be contagious without a prescription.
This is not therapy. It is uprising. It is the sound of souls refusing to be small.
So let the world scoff. Let it call us foolish. We will laugh louder. We will laugh longer.
We will laugh until the grief has nowhere left to hide.
Ho ho, ha ha ha, -Chris

Remember that fun is healing, laughter is healing, excitement is healing, silliness is healing, childlike wonder is healing, curiosity is healing, exploration is healing. Healing isn’t only hard work.
