“When life starts feeling a bit too serious, find someone you can giggle with!”

Laughter is contagious good health. When someone shares a good laugh with you, they are spreading not only joy but lowering blood pressure, boosting the immune system, improving brain functioning, lowering the risk of heart disease, as well as reducing de- pression, anger, anxiety, and stress. A healthy sense of humor during hard times is especially beneficial not only for all these physical healthful benefits, but the psyche benefits as well.
