Research has shown that laughter has therapeutic and preventative benefits.
Laughter and deep breathing can:
Help keep you healthy by enriching the blood with oxygen
Remove the negative effects of stress
Help to control blood pressure by reducing the release of stress-related hormones and bringing about relaxation
Relieve pain through the release of endorphins (the body's natural painkillers)
Gives a sense of wellbeing
Help with depression, anxiety and
psychosomatic
disorders by boosting the production of seratonin (a natural antidepressants)
Enhance the blood supply to your internal organs - giving them an 'internal massage'
Aid restful sleep and can reduce snoring - laughter is good for the muscles of the soft pallet and throat
It makes you feel good! Laughter is, after all, the best medicine. You will feel able to cope more easily with
negative emotions, the daily stresses of life or difficult people.
