A funny movie, hilarious tv sitcoms on television, a dinner with friends when you all laughed until you cried, a visit to a comedy club, these are the things and times we cherish. These times of great joy and laughter fill our lives and our hearts. Being around people and things that make us laugh comprise some of our best memories. These times of happiness are where our minds gravitate toward when life gets tough. Laughter encompasses your whole body, mind and spirit. When you laugh, everything is involved. So, is laughter good for you? It absolutely is! For every part of you: mind, body, and spirit. You might be surprised just how many benefits laughter brings to us, and why we want more of it!
Laughter has excellent benefits, helping us physically, mentally and socially. First physically. Laughter can physically help our bodies? Yes it can, let’s look at the ways:
It’s no secret that laughter is essential for good mental health. The physical benefits of it are encouraging, but so are the mental benefits.There’s nothing like a roar of laughter shared with those you care about. It is truly the best feeling, and it can improve your outlook.
Laughter is great on our own, but it’s even better within a group of people. Laughter has the power to enrich us in our social health in the following ways:
Even in times when we can’t be together, in the same room, with those we care about there are still ways we can engage. Thanks to technology we have video calls and video meeting apps that can connect us with many people at one time and we can still laugh and enjoy each other, even when we are apart.
Laughter is obviously just what the doctor ordered. It has physical, emotional and mental benefits. And laughter creates memories, happy remembrances of good times and warm moments. Even in hard and trying times, a laugh can break the barrier of pain and turn it around. A good sense of humor is powerful and necessary. Find the people and things that bring you joy and then laugh, a lot!
