Lightening Your Load with Laughter

Laughter is one of the best ways to reduce stress and help cope with unpleasant situations, including health problems. Here are some healthy ways to inject a little laughter into your life:
  • Rediscover the kid in you: Children laugh around 400 times a day - compared to only about 25 times for adults. Watch youngsters, see what makes them laugh, and try to bring some of that playfulness into your life.
  • Lighten up: Instead of bristling at life's annoyances - lost luggage, a late bus - try to view them as amusing and joke with others who are in the same fix.
  • Look for humor in difficult situations: Just make sure that your jokes aren't made at the expense of others, which could be hurtful instead of enjoyable. Positive humor is better for the mind, body and spirit than negative humor.

I think if I stood at the counter of the airport help desk and burst out in laughter when told my luggage was lost people would look at me funny and think I am crazy.

i trade currencies for a living and that has more highs and lows than anything id think. at the end of the day a good laugh reduces the stress level and the ability to bounce back the next day

mind you im not impressed by long lines or lost luggage myself ! laughing never solved either of those problems
