Laughter
There is a saying, laughter is the best medicine. It turns out that there's some truth to this old adage. Laughter has been shown to have a number of benefits for our physical and mental health.
Why laughter is so important:
It reduces stress. When we laugh, our bodies release endorphins – feel-good chemicals that help reduce stress and anxiety. This can help us feel more relaxed and calmer.
It strengthens relationships. Sharing a laugh with someone can help build a sense of connection and intimacy. It can also help diffuse tension and conflict in relationships.
It boosts our immune system. Studies have shown that laughter can increase the production of immune cells and antibodies, which can help protect us from illness and disease.
So how can you incorporate more laughter into your life this month? Here are a few ideas:
Watch a funny movie or TV show. There's nothing like a good comedy to get you laughing. Find a movie or TV show that you know will make you laugh and set aside some time to watch it. Is there a comedian who makes you laugh – find them on YouTube and have a few laughs.
Spend time with funny friends. If you have friends who always make you laugh, make an effort to spend more time with them this month. Their humor and positive energy can be infectious.
