The Importance Of Laughter For Health And Happiness

Laughter is one of the most under appreciated assets we have at our disposal. Most people just haven’t recognized its importance. Since the ability to laugh is something that has generally always been with us and is something that comes free, we have tended not to recognise its importance. Most parents will encourage their children to get a good education, to eat the right foods, to get adequate exercise, to save money for the future, etc., but one seldom hears parents or teachers say to children, “It’s important to get plenty of laughter”. Yet there is hardly anything more useful for enriching one’s life.
