The Benefits of Laughter
We’ve all heard that laughter is the best medicine, but is it?
When it comes to self managed health and wellbeing laughter is difficult to beat.

Laughter is clinically proven to have a powerful and positive effect on physical, emotional and social health and wellbeing. It heals and renews the human body and mind, and nothing works faster or more dependably to bring the mind and body back into balance.
Happily there is growing interest in laughter as a simple and effective health and wellbeing strategy, although it’s still a much underutilized health and wellbeing resource.
These are the latest discoveries in the ever growing list of the benefits of laughter.
