Wonderful post! I recently took a "Laughtger Yoga" class which also exercised the facial muscles. I will try to do this at least a few times a week! Thanks!

Laughter Yoga sounds wonderful! I wonder what other benefits it provides?

I too love this video of Jack LaLanne.
Most guys have no problem working out the body but think facial exercises are for the girls only.
Not so for Jack LaLanne. And since this video was produced a few decades back, Jack is way ahead of the times!
