Laughter is the Best Medicine

Humour is very important in our daily life. At the social level, laughter binds people together and
increases happiness and intimacy. Laughter is a powerful cure to stress, pain, and conflict. Nothing works
faster or more dependably to bring your mind and body back into balance than a good laugh. Humor reduces
your troubles, inspires hopes, connects you to others, and keeps you grounded, focused, and alert. With so
much power to make good and renew, the ability to laugh easily and frequently is a great resource for
solving problems, enhancing your relationships, and supporting both physical and emotional health. At the
physical level, laughter relaxes the whole body. A good and hearty laugh relieves physical tension and
stress, leaving your muscles relaxed for up to 45 minutes after. This boosts the immune system. Laughter
decreases stress hormones and increases immune cells and infection-fighting antibodies, thus improving
your resistance to disease. Laughter produces the release of endorphins, the body’s natural feel-good
chemicals. Endorphins promote an overall sense of well-being and can even temporarily relieve pain. It
protects the heart. Laughter improves the function of blood vessels and increases blood flow, which can help
protect you against a heart attack and other cardiovascular problems. At the personal level, laughter makes
you feel good. And the good feeling that you get when you laugh remains with you even after the laughter
subsides. Humor helps you keep a positive, optimistic outlook through difficult situations, disappointments,
and loss. More than just a respite from sadness and pain, laughter gives you the courage and strength to find
new sources of meaning and hope.
