Laughter is the Medicine for the Soul
In today’s materialistic age, most people are stressed. Laughter is very important to get rid of stress. Laughter is a cure for our body and medicine for our soul. It is written in the holy scriptures that there is a time for everything. Every problem has its own time. Every task has its own definite time. In this world, there is a time to cry. There is a time to laugh.
The research has proved that laughter not only strengthens your heart, but also helps you in boosting your immunity, relieving stress and keeping your behavior calm. Laughter frees the heart from all kinds of burdens. You feel good. You also rise spiritually.
A psychologist gave a new formula to one of his female patients who was always sad. The doctor asked the patient to laugh three times a day whether she liked it or not. The patient was a bit disturbed by the doctor’s advice, but after a few days she would get a chance to laugh. The patient’s mental and physical condition improved.
The biggest reason for this was that when we laugh heartily, the brain produces more of those hormones that free us from worries. Dr. William Fry, a psychologist at Stanford University, has done research work for many years on the relationships between laughter and health. His research results prove that people with a cheerful nature also have a healthy heart. We can reduce our stress through laughter and jokes.
Laughter frees the heart from all kinds of burdens. You also rise higher on a spiritual level. Laughter that comes freely not only builds a strong heart but also increases your immunity level. It is true that a person who keeps himself happy stays away from many problems. When the immunity level in the body is right, more red and white blood cells increase in the body.
Comedy movies increase the white blood cells in the blood. This indicates a higher immunity level in our body. Laughter not only changes your emotional attitude, but it also increases your lifespan. Laughter is not a guarantee for us to live up to 100 years, but it does guarantee that we will not have health problems.
