Oh, Mona...



Laughter is proven to not only make you feel happier, but relieves your stress, works out your diaphram, abs, and shoulders (not to mention your heart), AND it's a distraction from any negative emotions you have.
Basically all around, it is GOOD for you.

How to incorporate laughter into your life:

Laugh by yourself - watch a funny movie or read The Onion; instead of complaining about life's frustrations, try to laugh about them - if something is so frustrating or depressing it's ridiculous, realize you could look back on it and laugh, so why wait? Laugh about it now.
Laugh with others - do something silly and outrageous with someone else, laughing is contagious; the more they laugh the more you will too!
Fake it til you make it - even fake laughter can have the positive affects listed above, so fake an evil laugh and eventually it will probably turn in to a real one! ;)
