Laughter is the key to healthy living

It is usually said that “zindagi ka doosra naam zindaadili hain“ (jocundity is another name for life). But this jocundity is seen in very few people. Do you remember those carefree childhood days when you used to laugh and enjoy with your friends? It is true that you cannot rewind those days but at least you can try to steal some time from your busy schedule to just relax and laugh your heart out. We might have all the luxuries in the world, but nothing can replace a precious smile and a hearty life.

According to psychologists, calm and shy persons are more prone to be affected by mental stress, depression and psychological problems because they cannot easily express their feelings and emotions. Laughter can act as a medicine for such persons.psychologist says, “There are several thoughts related to frustration, jealousy, personal flaws and depression suppressed in the mind of people which they cannot express due to social inhibitions. Unknowingly, on a subconscious level these emotions get disclosed by people in the form of laughter and this process helps in keeping us tension free and relaxed.
