May 14, 2025 at 10:37 amWhy Laughing Is Good for You No joke, laughter can relieve stress, strengthen your relationships and even do your body good.
May 14, 2025 at 10:38 amWe all have those people in our lives. The ones who laugh without abandon. Who come in with the punchline when you didn’t even see the joke coming. Sure, they’re fun to be around, but it turns out they can reap in some serious health benefits with those one-liners. And you can get in on that action, too. Join in!
May 14, 2025 at 10:39 amDid you hear about the restaurant on the moon? Great food, no atmosphere.🤣 or you’re a little more high-brow in your comedy, letting out the chuckles and guffaws can do your mind and body a lot of good.
May 14, 2025 at 10:41 amAnd, so, knock, knock… Who’s there? Doctor. Doctor who? Well, not Dr. Who. But health psychologist Angel PsyD, who we talked with to help understand the health benefits of a case of the giggles.
May 14, 2025 at 10:43 amWhy laughter matters Dr. Angel says, that many of us are living our lives on the edge, and not in a fun way. “There’s a lot of literature that shows that Americans these days are more or less living in a ‘fight or flight’ response,” “Evolutionarily, that’s not what we’re made to do. Fight or flight is our natural stress response that allows us to run away from a saber-toothed tiger. It’s supposed to be short-lived. But the stress that many of us are living with day to day is triggering that response continually.”
May 14, 2025 at 10:44 amThat fight-or-flight mentality is the work of your sympathetic nervous system. Its job is to swoop in a dangerous situation and psych you up to keep you safe. Your breathing gets shallow, your heart pounds and your pupils dilate. Researchers say that long-term activation of your stress system has serious health implications, like an increased risk for obesity, heart disease, cancer and a variety of other illnesses.
May 14, 2025 at 10:45 amOn the opposite side of the equation is your parasympathetic nervous system, which is where your “chill mood” comes from. It’s also called the “rest and digest” or “feed and breed” response. When you’re living on parasympathetic nervous system vibes, your body slows its roll. Your heart rate lowers and you breathe more easily. Your parasympathetic nervous system kicks into gear when your body knows you’re not in danger and that it can safely lower its guard. Things like deep breathing, mild exercise and, yes, laughter, can cue your nerves to calm themselves and give your fight-or-flight response a much-needed break.
May 14, 2025 at 10:46 amHealth benefits of laughing Activating your parasympathetic nervous system through laughter can be a boon for your whole body, Trust me, the laugh lines will be well worth it!🤩
May 14, 2025 at 10:48 am1. Stress relief Sharing fun times and laughs with friends or family or even on your own, watching a funny movie or ridiculous cat videos or whatever tickles your funny bone🦴lowers your stress levels. ☺️🤣😂😇😜🤪🤩😩 “Letting out a good laugh makes you feel more relaxed because it disarms your nervous system,” “If you think about a moment when you were finding humor in life, it can be like nothing else mattered but that genuine joy that you were feeling.”
May 14, 2025 at 10:50 am2. Strengthen social bonds It’s one of the top traits people cite when talking about a prospective partner a good sense of humor. And there’s a reason for that. Humans are social creatures, and sharing good times is one way we find community. “Humor and laughter naturally create bonds. “Say you’re meeting someone new. If you can throw in a joke and make them laugh it’s like, ‘OK, we get each other,’ and you start to feel like you can be more your authentic self with them.”
May 14, 2025 at 10:52 am3. Increase oxygen to your body When you LOL in real life, not those lazy “LOLs” you typed out when you didn’t know how else to respond, you bring in heaps of extra oxygen, which decreases your heart rate and stimulates your parasympathetic nervous system. “When we get all this oxygen to our organs, our heart rate decreases, brain fog can dissipate. “It’s the opposite of the stress response. Increased oxygen can help you think more clearly and just allow your body to let go.” 😅
May 14, 2025 at 10:54 am4. Heart health Early research suggests laughter can decrease stress hormones, reduce artery inflammation and increase HDL, the “good” cholesterol. Here are three ways in which laughter can give you a healthier heart: Increased blood flow. Less stress hormones, which cause our blood vessels to constrict. Reduce your risk of heart attack.

The officer tells the driver, “You can’t be doing this, you need to take these penguins to the zoo!” The next day, the police officer pulls the same car over again, and says, “Hey! I told you to take these penguins to the zoo!” The driver says, “I did, and today I’m taking them to the movies!” 😩🤣☺️
