May 4th is World Laughter Day. Experience the Transformative Power of Laughter!
Join us and help celebrate and escape the stress of daily life in this unique laughter workshop. Not only will you have fun, but you'll also reap the evidence-based physical, emotional, and social benefits of laughter. Led by Lesley Lyle, a Positive Psychologist, Hypnotherapist, and wellbeing expert.
SPECIAL OFFER:
 We're offering 
5 FREE
 places for men! Use code "
LAUGHMORE
" when booking.
Research shows that male laughter creates unique neurological responses in group settings that enhance the experience for everyone. However, wellbeing activities often attract more women than men, so we are offering free places to men with the aim to encourage a more gender-balanced experience.
Bring a friend and save!
 Two tickets for just £20 (£12 each when purchased separately).
In times when reasons to laugh can seem scarce, this workshop offers a much-needed opportunity to reconnect with joy and each other through laughter.
What to Expect:
Despite its name, Laughter Yoga doesn't involve any traditional yoga poses or mats. It refers to the powerful breathing pattern that occurs during laughter—where you exhale more than you inhale, similar to Pranayama breathing in traditional yoga. This extended exhalation created during hearty laughter provides many of the same respiratory benefits as yogic breathing exercises.
The workshop combines several approaches to bring more laughter into your life:
Laughter Exercises:
 Dive into guided activities designed to elicit natural, contagious laughter without the use of jokes or humour.
Games and Interactive Activities:
 Experience a variety of playful strategies specifically designed to evoke natural, spontaneous laughter.
Science-Backed Benefits:
 Learn how laughter can significantly reduce stress, alleviate anxiety, and boost overall emotional well-being.
Immersive Experience:
 Enjoy a joyful, uplifting session that will leave you feeling lighter and brighter.
Playful Engagement:
 Reconnect with your inner child through playful, authentic exercises.
Supportive Environment:
 The session blends structured exercises with opportunities for authentic joy in a non-judgmental atmosphere.
Everyone Welcome:
 No prior experience needed. 
This is not a yoga session
, so just come with an open heart ready to laugh!
Come as you are, leave with a smile.
Whether you're looking to boost your mood, improve your health, or simply enjoy a unique and joyous event, this laughter workshop is for you. Don't miss this chance to laugh like never before and learn techniques to bring more laughter into your daily life.
Facilitated by Lesley Lyle, Positive Psychologist, World Laughter Yoga Ambassador, author of "Laugh Your Way to Happiness."
 Lesley was personally trained by Dr. Madan Kataria (founder of Laughter Yoga) in India in 2011 and has been sharing the gift of laughter ever since.
Spaces are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis. Don't miss out—book your place now!

According to my experience of being cheated, you should book tickets on Ctrip official website. Ticket issuance and refund are very fast. Ctrip&#39;s customer service is also very good now, 24 hours. Ctrip should remove the products of other travel agencies from your homepage. Or mark them with the two big words &quot;official&quot;. Otherwise, you will always click on the wrong products and get cheated.

It is cheaper than buying on site. There is no discount for buying on site. The second picture shows the price.

After issuing the ticket, go directly to the front desk staff to report your name. He will exchange it for a paper ticket for you. It is cheaper than buying on site.

This attraction is next to the airport. You can go there while waiting for the flight. It is not recommended to go there specially. It is relatively small. The exhibition content is good. The staff is also very friendly. There is a restaurant inside where you can have afternoon tea.

Wind and beautiful day. I like to take a walk to the botanical garden and breathe the fresh air. Peacock sculpture or other countries give it? The shape is very retro and elegant, and New Zealand is a flower city. Your climate and warm sea breeze make the flowers here colorful.

Punting On The Avon (Antigua Boat Sheds)

Boat tour

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing punting on the Avon River in Christchurch, and it was an absolutely delightful way to explore the city. The journey itself was serene and picturesque, offering a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life.Our guide, dressed in traditional Edwardian attire, expertly navigated the flat-bottomed boat with a long pole, allowing us to relax and take in the tranquil surroundings. We drifted past lush greenery, charming bridges, and historic architecture, all of which created a postcard-perfect backdrop. The gentle pace of the punting made it easy to fully appreciate the beauty of the Christchurch Botanic Gardens and the calm waters of the river.The entire experience was wonderfully calming, yet never dull. Our guide shared interesting tidbits about the area&rsquo;s history and natural features, making the trip both relaxing and educational. It&rsquo;s the kind of activity that feels timeless&mdash;no rush, no stress, just the simple pleasure of gliding through a scenic waterway.Overall, I&rsquo;d highly recommend punting on the Avon to anyone visiting Christchurch. It&rsquo;s a unique and charming way to see the city, and it&rsquo;s perfect for solo travelers, couples, and families alike. I came away feeling refreshed, with a newfound appreciation for Christchurch&rsquo;s natural beauty and historic charm.

It turns out that the scenery is not as good as the online ones, and the scenery on the way to New Zealand is actually not worse than this. In short, it&#39;s okay. It was quite quiet when I went out. When I returned, I came up with a Chinese tour group. It was noisy for a long time, so that the train experience was discounted.
