Kay Wararuk Su is a master trainer of Laughter Yoga, born in the scenic town of Chiang Rai, Thailand. Her journey into the realm of Laughter Yoga commenced with the initial intention of utilizing it as a training tool in corporate settings. Her aim was to alleviate stress among employees, but she soon discovered that it brought immense joy to those who participated. As she delved deeper into the practice, she also unearthed its profound connection to meditation.
The Connection Between Laughter and Meditation: The enchantment of Laughter Yoga revealed itself to her in a magical moment. Following a meditation session after her Laughter Yoga practice, she experienced an extraordinary release of tension that permeated her entire body, as if her muscles had unraveled. This transformative experience served as a profound realization of the hidden marvels of Laughter Yoga. It ignited an insatiable desire within her to explore the depths of Laughter Yoga even further, to uncover its secrets and share its profound benefits with others.
Empowering Survivors A Heartfelt Session for Pregnant Women: Over the past seven years, she has had the privilege of teaching a diverse range of individuals, both in Thailand and abroad. Among the many profound and touching experiences she has encountered, one stands out—the opportunity to teach Laughter Yoga to pregnant women who were survivors of abuse.
Four brave women, residents of a shelter in Bangkok, attended a special event organized at a hospital. Accompanying them was a group of regular participants. It was a unique and challenging situation, as she pondered how to bring laughter to these pregnant women, who had endured such trauma, while also engaging the larger group.
On that momentous day, she made a decision. She announced that they would not be laughing solely for themselves. Instead, they would laugh for the little worlds growing inside these four courageous women. She explained that the stress experienced by these mothers could impact their unborn babies. Therefore, they would laugh together to create a realm of joy for these four precious lives.
What ensued was a remarkable session of Laughter Yoga. Everyone wholeheartedly committed to laughing, not for themselves, but for the well-being of the four mothers and their unborn children. It became a powerful moment where everyone present recognized that laughter could be a force for positive change.
Laughter Yoga as a Catalyst for Positive Change: Her deep dive into the world of Laughter Yoga commenced when she had the privilege of traveling to Bangalore, India, in 2015 to learn from the esteemed Dr. Madan Kataria, widely known as The Laughter Guru. Since that pivotal experience, she has wholeheartedly embraced the practice and shared it with others in Thailand.
Laughter Yoga has become the catalyst for a complete transformation in her life. It took her from a lucrative corporate job in the bustling metropolis of Thailand's capital to a serene existence in the peaceful province of Chiang Rai. This shift was monumental, altering the course of her life in profound ways.
Initially, she was unaware of the immense potential of Laughter Yoga. However, everything changed when she witnessed the extraordinary power of laughter to emancipate individuals from their suffering. Whether it was financial hardships, familial struggles, or the burdens of everyday life, she witnessed people releasing their pain through the simple act of laughter. This pivotal moment propelled her to resign from her managerial position in the capital and return to her hometown of Chiang Rai, fully immersing herself in the world of laughter.
Her vision extends to a future where Laughter Yoga instructors in Thailand are not only respected for their dedication but also enjoy a high standard of living. She envisions a society where Laughter Yoga becomes a widely recognized and embraced practice, reshaping the nation's collective mindset and fostering positive change in various spheres of life.
By harnessing the potential of Laughter Yoga as a transformative force, she believes that Thailand and its society can experience profound shifts, leading to a brighter and more harmonious future.
