Laughter therapy is useful:

In reducing High Blood Pressure and Heart disease: Laughter helps to control blood pressure by reducing the release of stress related hormones and bringing relaxation.

As a Natural Pain Killer: Laughter increases the levels of endorphins in our bodies, which are natural pain killers.

In Alleviating Bronchitis and Asthma: Laughter is one of the best exercises for those suffering from asthma and bronchitis. It improves the lung capacity and oxygen levels in the blood. Doctors recommend chest physiotherapy to bring out mucous (phlegm) from the respiratory passages.

As an Internal Jog: There are plenty of exercises available for your body muscles, but laughing provides a good massage to all internal organs. It enhances their blood supply and increases their efficiency.

To curb Depression, anxiety and psychosomatic disorders: The stress and strain of modern life are taking a heavy toll of the human mind and body. Laughter has benefited many people who were on heavy anti depressant pills and tranquillizers.

To Improve Stamina in Athletes: Since breathing capacity is one of the factors which determines stamina in sports, laughter before any competitive sports activity will increase the relaxation levels and hence, performance.

To Make You Look Younger: Laughter is an excellent exercise for your facial muscles. It tones up the muscles of the face and improves facial expressions. When you laugh, your face becomes red due to an increase in blood supply, which nourishes the facial skin and makes it glow
