TUCSON, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

They say that laughter is the best medicine, and SCAN Health Plan agrees. Tucson seniors will have the opportunity to learn just how therapeutic it is at a Laughter Yoga event, sponsored by SCAN Health Plan Arizona and held in honor of World Laughter Day in May.

World Laughter Day was created in 1998 in India by Dr. Madan Kataria, founder of the worldwide Laughter Yoga movement. On Sunday, May 5, SCAN will be sponsoring a session of Laughter Yoga for anyone who wants to join in the fun. The World Laughter Day celebration will take place at 10 a.m. at McCormick Park, 2950 North Columbus Blvd., in Tucson. Laughter Leader Emily Vance, Ph.D., a certified yoga instructor, will be guiding participants. No registration is required. For more information, call 520-609-7789.

Laughter Yoga is a type of exercise that combines laughter, yogic breathing and unique exercise movements. Participants breathe in and out very deeply and very slowly through the nose. When performed within a group of people, the result is nonstop, hearty laughter no jokes needed. Because Laughter Yoga can be done sitting or standing, it works for people of all ages regardless of physical condition. Laughter Yoga started with just five people and has since spread to more than 6,000 Laughter Clubs in 60 countries.

Like other forms of yoga, Laughter Yoga is beneficial for everyone because it:

Improves circulation and moves oxygen through the body. Lowers stress and relieves pain. Strengthens the bodys immune system, which helps fight off disease. Improves mental alertness and memory. Creates a positive state of mind and boosts self-esteem.

For 35 yearsSCAN Health Plan has been focusing on the unique needs of people with Medicare and today is one of the largest not-for-profit Medicare Advantage plans in the United States.

Studies have shown yoga to be beneficial for both physical and mental health, but the biological mechanisms for why have been poorly understood -- until now. New research from the University of Oslo has determined that yoga practices can have an almost immediate impact on gene expression, particularly in immune cells.

From previous research , we know that yoga is linked to not only lower stress levels, but also bone health, reduced back pain, relief from depression, and lower risk factors for heart disease, among other health benefits. However, the means by which these positive effects are enacted have been poorly understood.

The Norwegian study, published this month in the journal PLOS ONE, has found genetic evidence of yoga's impact on the immune system. In the study, researchers examined 10 participants who underwent a week-long yoga retreat where they did meditation, yogic postures and yogic breathing exercises. Examining the participants' blood before and after four-hour yoga sessions showed that the yoga practice changed the expression of 111 genes in circulating immune cells. In contrast, music and walking-based relaxation changed the expression of 38 genes.

"There are rapid (within two hours of start of practice) and significant gene expression changes... during a comprehensive yoga program," the research team writes in the study. "These data suggest that previously reported effects of yoga practices have an integral physiological component at the molecular level which is initiated immediately during practice and may form the basis for the long-term stable effects."

The results suggest that yoga may as effective, or even more so, than traditional exercise in inducing health benefits through changes on the genetic level, the study's authors note.

And although it's long been known that yoga can reduce stress, a UCLA study also recently determined how the practice can induce relaxation. Practicing a type of chanting yogic meditation daily for eight weeks was found to lower stress levels by reducing biological mechanisms responsible for increasing the immune system's inflammation response -- and stress is known to spur inflammation.
