In this episode of Aura Room, host Archita sits down with Cathy Nesbitt to explore laughter as more than a reaction—it can be a practice that supports stress relief, emotional release, and connection.

Cathy explains how intentional laughter (including laughter yoga) can shift us out of the body’s stress response and into a calmer, more joyful state. You’ll hear why the body responds to laughter—even when it feels “forced” at first—and how breathing, oxygen, and mood-boosting hormones play a role.

If you’ve been carrying heaviness, feeling tense, or forgetting how to play, this conversation offers a simple reminder: joy can be a tool you choose—starting today.
