LAUGHTER

Laughter can:

Stimulate many organs: It enhances your intake of oxygen-rich air, stimulates your heart, lungs and muscles; and increases endorphins that are released by your brain. The endorphins make you happy thereby soothing tension.  Laughter aids muscle relaxation.

Improve your immune system: Negative thoughts impact stress on your system. Stress decreases your immunity. In contrast, positive thoughts actually release neuropeptides that help fight stress and potentially more serious illnesses.

Relieve pain: It may ease pain by causing the body to produce its own natural painkillers. It can break the pain-spasm cycle common to some muscle disorders.

Increase personal satisfaction: Laughter can also make it easier to cope with difficult situations. It also helps you connect with other people.


Being cheerful keeps you healthy. It is slow death to be gloomy all the time - Proverbs 17:22 (GNT)
