We Don't Laugh Because We're Happy. We're Happy Because We Laugh! Laughter is universal. No matter what language you speak, how old you are, or what your physical or mental abilities are, you can still laugh, and when you laugh, you unleash a host of physical, emotional and mental health benefits for both yourself and the people around you. Studies have shown that laughter relieves stress; relieves pain; boost your immune system; helps reduce blood pressure; stimulates your mind; and is a good workout. Laughter also triggers the release of the drug-like neuro-chemical endorphin which makes people feel better all over. Laughter has an anesthetic-like effect on the body, suppressing physical pain and discomfort for up to two hours following a good laugh. The ability to laugh is also closely tied to having a positive outlook on life which helps to prevent numerous mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. Laughter is infectious and as seniors get older, they can still stay young at heart with laughter. In fact, studies have shown that people with a sense of humor can expect to live longer than people who never laugh. This book is dedicated to laughter and will give you lots of 'Healthy Laughter' because laughter really is the best medicine! ALSO INCLUDED IN THIS BOOK: Information Resources for Seniors on Alzheimer's and other Dementia.
