Why Laughter is Good For You EP 173

A new fav IG account that ALWAYS makes me laugh Sometimes the best medicine doesn’t come in a pill, it comes in the form of laughter. That belly-deep kind of laugh, the one that makes your cheeks hurt and your eyes water, is more powerful than we realize. Laughter is good for you because: • It relieves stress. Even a few minutes of genuine laughter lowers cortisol and helps your body relax. • It connects us. Sharing a laugh with someone builds trust and strengthens relationships. • It shifts perspective. A good laugh can take the edge off a hard moment, reminding us not to take everything so seriously. • It boosts your body. Laughter increases oxygen intake, stimulates your heart and lungs, and even triggers the release of endorphins—the “feel-good” chemicals.
