How to Start a Laughter Club in Your Area
i.e. DIY Laughter Club
This web page describes the tremendous benefits of Laughter
Yoga. Laughter Yoga is the best overall exercise for body, mind and spirit in
least period of time. No other system will provide so many benefits. There are
two requirements. First you need to spare at least half an hour daily preferably
in morning. Secondly you need to practice Laughter Yoga in a group of persons.
It will be ideal if you and your group practices Laughter Yoga in a park say
from 7:30AM to 8:00AM. It is assumed that you have studied contents of this web
page and also have fulfilled the two requirements.
A typical Laughter Yoga session is shown in a video

Introduction about Laughter Clubs
A breakthrough technology called Laughter Yoga, which Dr
Madan Kataria (A MBBS Doctor in Mumbai) discovered in 1995. It started as a social Laughter Club in
Mumbai, India.
There are now thousands of Laughter Clubs in more than 100
countries. A rapidly growing global phenomenon, Laughter Yoga is now being
practiced in companies, old age homes, schools, colleges, fitness centres,
community centres, prisons, hospitals, homes for the physically and mentally
challenged and cancer self-help groups. It is being touted as perhaps the best
alternative health therapy for complete body mind wellness.
Our Laughter Club at Indore
Mr A. L. Jain (known as Raja Babu) of Indore while in Mumbai
visited Laughter Clubs and on return started the same in a park at Indore. He
went round park to park and started such clubs past 20 years. On 30.10.2014, he
came to our ‘Man Pasand Park, Palasia’ at Indore and started such club. After
two months, we found the activity quite monotonous. To get rid of monotony, I
studied various web sites on internet and found that there are numerous ways and
means to do so. As an initiative, I started giving practical demonstration of an
unique exercise daily. From 16th Feb ’15, we started making videos of
the said exercise and posting the same on special WhatsApp Group. From 24th
Feb ’15, we started uploading the same on YouTube.
In fact I already had following materials on ‘Laughter’:-
(1)
‘Sant Anubhav’ – A book by Narayan Swami published in 1973. The 10th
Chapter in this book is titled ‘ Treatment by Laughter’
(2)
I shot a video on ‘Yoganand’ (Age 102 yrs) at Indore on 09.01.10 when he
demonstrated few exercises on ‘Laughter Yoga’

Indore also demonstrated few more exercises. Mr O.P. Gupta, the founder
President of 'Vishwa Hasya Yog Mahasang, Indore. narrated the history of
laughter yoga. He mentioned meeting with Dr. Madan Kataria who adopted the
phrase 'Laughter Yoga' based on news item published in Navabharat Indore. Later
on I met Mr O.P. Gupta on 11.04.15 and showed him this clip of 09.01.10. I then
recorded video interview of Mr OP Gupta and uploaded it on YouTube vide link

The benefits of ‘Laughter Yoga’ are described below.
This are based on the material published by Dr Madan Kataria in his famous web
site
http://www.laughteryoga.org/
Stress & Depression On The Rise
In this high pressure, high tension and competitive world,
laughter is fast disappearing and people are succumbing to daily stressors that
relentlessly rob one of the ability to laugh. Stress is the number killer today,
while depression has become the number one sickness. More than 70 - 80 percent
illnesses are related to stress.
The whole world is full of seriousness. There is little or
no laughter at workplaces. Newspapers and television programs continually
bombard us with unpleasant news and negative thoughts, making people even less
secure.
It has almost become a challenge to combat stress and
maintain good health - what with astronomical medical costs! People resort to
several therapies, but somehow fail to spot the simplest of them all –
laughter.
Scientifically Proven Benefits
It has been scientifically established that laughter has a
profound impact on the body and mind. Not only does it help to prevent the onset
of sickness by way of strengthening the immune system, it also has a healing
effect. A daily dose of laughter is the one solution which has the power to
unwind stress and uplift joy; the power to slow down a racing heart and
strengthen the mind; the power to raise the spirit and fend off pessimism…and
all this in an instant. Sounds crazy, but works like magic.
Several studies are underway in many universities around
the world. Clinical research conducted at Bangalore, India and in the United
States has proved that Laughter lowers the level of stress hormones
(epinephrine, cortisol, etc) in the blood. The results also showed significant
improvement of the Laughter Yoga group in all areas, and it is particularly
interesting to note the long-lasting effects of the laughter interventions.
For centuries, laughter was referred to as the best
medicine for body and mind, but never was there a reliable delivery system.
Laughter was simply the end result of entertainment or amusement, but Laughter
Yoga has taken laughter to a new level. It is a complete delivery system,
allowing laughter to actually be prescribed as part of a daily routine in order
to realize all of the health benefits. It enables everyone to laugh, even those
who are serious, introverted and uncomfortable being funny.
Inspired by articles on benefits of laughter, Dr Madan
Kataria launched the Laughter Club Movement in March 1995 with just 5 people in
a Mumbai park. In the initial days, the group resorted to jokes and funny
stories, but they soon ran out of them. This prompted Dr Kataria to come up with
a breakthrough system of laughter. He finally found the answer he was looking
for, which was based on a scientific fact that our body cannot differentiate
between acted and genuine laughter. Both produced the same ‘happy chemistry’.
The next morning he explained this to the group and asked
them to try to act out laughter with him for one minute. Amid skepticism they
agreed to try – and the results were amazing. For some, the acted out laughter
quickly turned into real laughter – this was contagious and very soon others
followed. Soon the group was laughing like never before. The hearty laughter
that followed persisted for almost ten minutes. This breakthrough was the birth
of Laughter Yoga.
●
Laughter Yoga is a unique concept where anyone can laugh for no reason, without
relying on humor, jokes or comedy.
●
We initiate laughter as an exercise in a group, but with eye contact and
childlike playfulness, it soon turns into real and contagious laughter.
●
The reason we call it Laughter Yoga is because it combines laughter exercises
with yoga breathing. This brings more oxygen to the body and the brain which
makes one feel more energetic and healthy.
●
The concept of Laughter Yoga is based on a scientific fact that the body
cannot differentiate between fake and real laughter if done with willingness.
One gets the same physiological and psychological benefits.
In addition to social laughter clubs, Laughter Yoga is
also practiced in companies and corporations, Fitness centers, Yoga studios,
Centers for Seniors, Schools, Colleges, Universities, Physically and mentally
challenged and Self help cancer groups.
Most people feel that if they are able to laugh naturally
they don’t need to join a Laughter Club, Here are the 3 basic reasons why one
must do Laughter Yoga to get maximum health benefits:
(1)
To reap the health benefits of laughter, laughter has to be loud and
deep, coming from the diaphragm. It should be a belly laugh. It might not be
socially acceptable to laugh loudly, but Laughter Yoga clubs provide a safe
environment where one can laugh loudly and heartily without any social
implication. In order to get scientifically proven health benefits of laughter,
we need to laugh continuously for at least for 10 to 15 minutes. Since in
Laughter Yoga we do laughter as an exercise, we can prolong our laughter as long
as we want; it brings measurable physiological changes like oxygen levels in the
blood, muscle relaxation, blood circulation and release of certain hormones in
the body.

(3)
Natural laughter that courses through our life depends upon many reasons
and conditions, but there are not many reasons which make us laugh. That means
we are leaving laughter to chance, it may happen it may not. In contrast, in
Laughter Yoga club we are not leaving laughter to chance, but doing it out of
commitment. This is a guaranteed way of getting the health benefits of laughter.
Laughing for no reason is the core philosophy of Laughter
Yoga methods. When Dr Kataria travels around the world, the most commonly asked
questions are: Do we need a sense of humor to laugh? How can we laugh when we
don’t feel like laughing or are not in a good mood? How can we laugh when we
have so many problems in life? Why children can laugh 300 to 400 times in a day
while adults laugh only 15 times? Can we learn to laugh? Though Dr Kataria is a
medical doctor, he admitted that he was not aware of these very relevant
questions before starting the Laughter Club movement. But as the concept of
Laughter Yoga evolved, so did the answers. He started to experience the magic of
laughing without a reason, which gradually enabled him to discover Five Secrets
of Laughing for No Reason
5
Secrets
SECRET 1: We Don’t Need Sense Of Humor To Laugh Most
people believe that one must have a sense of humor to laugh, but Laughter Yoga
has proven otherwise. To develop the ability to laugh joyfully, it is important
to remove all inhibitions and conditioning created by self, family, and society.
Laughter Yoga facilitates this cleaning process and helps to release natural
joyful laughter inside of us. The techniques are effective even for people who
have lost their laughter or have absolutely no sense of humor. People often say,
“I am depressed”, “I cannot laugh”, or “I don’t feel like laughing”. We tell
them, “It doesn’t matter. Just bring us your willing body and we will make you
laugh.” So, even if you don’t have sense of humor, don’t worry. Just join a
Laughter Club and you will develop a sense of humor.
SECRET 2: Motion Creates Emotion “How do you laugh
when you’re in no mood to laugh or don’t have any reason to laugh?” The answer
is – Theory of motion creates emotion. There is an inherent link between the
body and mind. Whatever happens to the mind happens to the body. Therefore, if
one changes the quality of thoughts, one can feel a change in body behavior.
Conversely, if one can bring a change in body behavior one can experience the
change in mental state. Laughter Yoga has the ability to synchronize both body
and the mind, maintaining a mutual harmony.
SECRET 3: You Can Laugh Even If You Are Not Happy
There is an old saying, “If you are not happy, act like a happy person and you
will become one.” There is great wisdom and science behind “acting out
happiness”. Medical research shows that even if you pretend to laugh or act
happy, your body produces happy chemicals. Laughter yoga emphasizes ‘fake it
until you make it’, which clearly states that there is hardly any difference,
between thinking about doing something, and actually doing it. Therefore,
whatever may be the source of laughter; it leads to the same physiological
changes occurring in the body.
SECRET 4: Cultivate Childlike Playfulness Laughter
is not about laughing. It is actually about cultivating childlike playfulness.
Once you learn to play, you don’t have to laugh. Laughter will be the natural
outcome of your playful inner child. Though laughing in a group provides a
stimulus, a childlike behavior by adults helps them to get over their
inhibitions and actually loosen up. Therefore, we incorporate a lot of
childlike actions in the laughter clubs like producing funny sounds by swiveling
the tongue inside the mouth, tapping air-filled cheeks, laughing like a child
and talking Gibberish. We keep reminding our members about the importance of
being like a child.
SECRET 5: You Can Train Your Body And Mind To Laugh
Our body and mind can be trained to laugh at will. By repeating any bodily
behavior over a period of time, the mind begins to generate a predictable
response. Thus, by doing laughter exercises on a regular basis, people become
conditioned to be joyful. With Laughter Yoga, the brain develops new neuronal
connections that produce happy chemistry in the body. These reactions can be
triggered simply by laughter exercises, and doing certain actions of the body,
which lead the mind to experience the emotion of joy.
4
Steps of Laughter Yoga
1 Clapping: We clap with our hands parallel to each
other for full finger-to-finger and palm-to-palm contact. This stimulates
acupressure points in the hands and increases energy levels.
2 Deep Breathing : Laughter exercises are
interspersed with deep breathing exercises to help flush the lungs as well as
bring physical and mental relaxation.
3 Childlike playfulness: The objective of Laughter
Yoga is to cultivate childlike playfulness that helps you laugh without any
reason, keeps the energy levels and builds enthusiasm.
4 Laughter exercises: Laughter exercises are the
mainstay of the session. They help to reduce inhibition and shyness and convert
simulated laughter into unconditional laughter.
Health Benefits
Here is an ever increasing demand to open more and more
Laughter Clubs in the world because people are inspired and motivated by the
enormous health benefits derived from doing Laughter Yoga. These benefits can be
felt from the very first session and members report amazing improvement in their
physical health, as well as a more positive mental attitude and higher energy
levels.
The first thing they say is that they don’t fall sick very
often. There are daily reports of partial or total cure of most stress-related
illnesses like hypertension, heart disease, depression, asthma, arthritis,
allergies, stiff muscles and more.
Laughter Yoga is a complete package for physical, mental,
social and spiritual well-being of an individual. It has all the elements of
perfect health building activity. Therefore, it is not about the concept or the
philosophy which attracts them; it is about what they get and how it benefits
their lives.
1. Good Mood and More Spontaneous Laughter
Whether it is your personal, business or social life your
mood affects everything you do. If your mood is good, you can do things much
better. Laughter Yoga helps to change your mood within minutes by releasing
certain chemicals from your brain cells called endorphins. You will remain
cheerful and in a good mood throughout the day and will laugh more than you
normally do.
2. Healthy Exercise to Beat Stress
Laughter Yoga is like an aerobic exercise (cardio workout)
which brings more oxygen to the body and brain thereby making one feel more
healthy and energetic. Laughter Yoga is a single exercise routine which reduces
physical, mental and emotional stress simultaneously.
3. Health Benefits:
You can’t enjoy life if you are sick. Laughter Yoga
strengthens the immune system which not only prevents you from falling ill, but
also helps to heal a variety of conditions like hypertension, heart disease,
diabetes, depression, arthritis, allergies, asthma, bronchitis, backache,
fibromyalgia, migraine headaches, menstrual disorders, cancer and many others.
4. Quality of Life:
Quality of life depends upon the quality of good
friendships we have. Laughter is a positive energy which helps people to connect
with other people quickly and improves relationships. If you laugh more, you
will attract many friends.
5. Positive Attitude in Challenging Times
Everyone can laugh when life is good, but how does one
laugh when faced with challenges? Laughter helps create a positive mental state
to deal with negative situations and negative people. It gives hope and optimism
to cope with difficult times.

Laughter is the Best Medicine
The Health Benefits of Humor and Laughter
Humor is
infectious. The sound of roaring laughter is far more contagious than any cough,
sniffle, or sneeze. When laughter is shared, it binds people together and
increases happiness and intimacy. Laughter also triggers healthy physical
changes in the body. Humor and laughter strengthen your immune system, boost
your energy, diminish pain, and protect you from the damaging effects of stress.
Best of all, this priceless medicine is fun, free, and easy to use
Laughter is strong medicine for mind and body
Laughter is a powerful antidote to stress, pain, and conflict. Nothing works
faster or more dependably to bring your mind and body back into balance than a
good laugh. Humor lightens your burdens, inspires hopes, connects you to others,
and keeps you grounded, focused, and alert.
With so much power to heal and renew, the ability to laugh easily and frequently
is a tremendous resource for surmounting problems, enhancing your relationships,
and supporting both physical and emotional health.
Laughter is good for your health
Developing your sense of humor: Take yourself less seriously
One essential characteristic that helps us laugh is not taking ourselves too
seriously. We’ve all known the classic tight-jawed sourpuss who takes everything
with deathly seriousness and never laughs at anything. No fun there!
Some events are clearly sad and not occasions for laughter. But most events in
life don’t carry an overwhelming sense of either sadness or delight. They
fall into the gray zone of ordinary life–giving you the choice to laugh or not.
Using humor and play to overcome challenges and enhance your life
The ability to laugh, play, and have fun with others not only makes life more
enjoyable but also helps you solve problems, connect with others, and be more
creative. People who incorporate humor and play into their daily lives find that
it renews them and all of their relationships.
Life brings challenges that can either get the best of you or become playthings
for your imagination. When you “become the problem” and take yourself too
seriously, it can be hard to think outside the box and find new solutions. But
when you play with the problem, you can often transform it into an opportunity
for creative learning.
Playing with problems seems to come naturally to children. When they are
confused or afraid, they make their problems into a game, giving them a sense of
control and an opportunity to experiment with new solutions. Interacting with
others in playful ways helps you retain this creative ability.
Here are two examples of people who took everyday problems and turned them
around through laughter and play:
As
laughter, humor, and play become an integrated part of your life, your
creativity will flourish and new discoveries for playing with friends,
coworkers, acquaintances, and loved ones will occur to you daily. Humor takes
you to a higher place where you can view the world from a more relaxed,
positive, creative, joyful, and balanced perspective.
The
following extract from the Wikipaedia is also useful:-
Laughter
(from Wikipaedia, free encyclopaedia)
Laughter is
a physical reaction in humans and some other species of primate, consisting
typically of rhythmical, often audible contractions of the diaphragm and
other parts of the respiratory system. It is a response to certain external or
internal stimuli.
Laughter can arise from such activities as being tickled,[1] or
from humorous stories
or thoughts.[2] Most
commonly, it is considered a visual expression of a number of positive emotional
states, such as joy, mirth, happiness,relief,
etc. On some occasions, however, it may be caused by contrary emotional states
such as embarrassment, apology, or confusion such as nervous
laughter or courtesy laugh.
Age, gender, education, language, and culture are all factors[3] as
to whether a person will experience laughter in a given situation.
Laughter is a part of human
behavior regulated
by the brain,
helping humans clarify their intentions in social
interactionand
providing an emotional context to conversations. Laughter is used as a signal
for being part of a group — it signals acceptance and positive interactions with
others. Laughter is sometimes seen as contagious, and the laughter of one person
can itself provoke laughter from others as a positive
feedback.[4] This
may account in part for the popularity oflaugh
tracks in situation
comedy television
shows.
The study of humor and laughter, and its psychological and physiological effects
on the human body, is called
gelotology.
Nature
Children are said to laugh a great deal more than adults: an average baby
laughing 300-400 times a day compared to an average adult laughing only 15-20
times a day;[citation
needed] however
the cited article, written by one of the two top humor researches in the world,
establishes that there is no real basis for this claim.[5] Laughter
might be thought of as an audible expression or appearance of excitement, an
inward feeling of joy and happiness. It may ensue from jokes, tickling,
and other stimuli completely unrelated to psychological state, such as nitrous
oxide. One group of researchers speculated that noises from infants as early as
17 days old may be vocal laughing sounds or laughter,[6] however
the weight of the evidence supports its appearance at 15 weeks to four months of
age.
Laughter researcher Robert Provine said: "Laughter is a mechanism everyone has;
laughter is part of universal human vocabulary. There are thousands of
languages, hundreds of thousands of dialects, but everyone speaks laughter in
pretty much the same way." Babies have the ability to laugh before they ever
speak. Children who are born blind and deaf still retain the ability to laugh.[7]
Provine argues that "Laughter is primitive, an unconscious vocalization."
Provine argues that it probably is genetic. In a study of the "Giggle Twins",
two happy twins who
were separated at birth and only reunited 43 years later, Provine reports that
"until they met each other, neither of these exceptionally happy ladies had
known anyone who laughed as much as they did." They reported this even though
they both had been brought together by their adoptive parents, who they
indicated were "undemonstrative and dour." He indicates that the twins
"inherited some aspects of their laugh sound and pattern, readiness to laugh,
and maybe even taste in humor."[8]
Norman Cousins developed
a recovery program incorporating megadoses of Vitamin C, along with a positive
attitude, love, faith, hope, and laughter induced by Marx Brothers films. "I
made the joyous discovery that ten minutes of genuine belly laughter had an
anesthetic effect and would give me at least two hours of pain-free sleep," he
reported. "When the pain-killing effect of the laughter wore off, we would
switch on the motion picture projector again and not infrequently, it would lead
to another pain-free interval."[9][10]
Scientists have noted the similarity in forms of laughter induced by tickling
among various primates,
which suggests that laughter derives from a common origin among primate species.[11][12]
A
very rare neurological condition has been observed whereby the sufferer is
unable to laugh out loud, a condition known as aphonogelia.[13]
The Brain
Neurophysiology indicates that laughter is linked with the activation of the ventromedial prefrontal
cortex,
that producesendorphins.[14] Scientists
have shown that parts of the limbic
system are
involved in laughter. This system is involved in emotions and helps us with
functions necessary for humans' survival. The structures in the limbic system
that are involved in laughter: thehippocampus and
the amygdala.[15]
The December 7, 1984, Journal of the American
Medical Association describes
the neurological causes of laughter as follows:
"Although there is no known 'laugh center' in the brain, its neural mechanism
has been the subject of much, albeit inconclusive, speculation. It is evident
that its expression depends on neural paths arising in close association with
the telencephalic anddiencephalic centers
concerned with respiration.
Wilson considered the mechanism to be in the region of the mesial thalamus,hypothalamus,
and subthalamus.
Kelly and co-workers, in turn, postulated that the tegmentum near
the periaqueductal
greycontains
the integrating mechanism for emotional expression. Thus, supranuclear pathways,
including those from the limbic
systemthat
Papez hypothesised to mediate emotional expressions such as laughter, probably
come into synaptic relation
in the reticular core of the brain stem. So while purely emotional responses
such as laughter are mediated by subcortical structures, especially the
hypothalamus, and are stereotyped, the cerebral
cortex can
modulate or suppress them."
Health
A
link between laughter and healthy function of blood vessels was first reported
in 2005 by researchers at the University of Maryland Medical Center with the
fact that laughter causes the dilatation of the inner lining of blood vessels,
the endothelium,
and increases blood flow.[16] Drs.
Michael Miller (University of Maryland) and William Fry (Stanford), theorize
that beta-endorphin like compounds released by the hypothalamus activate
receptors on the endothelial surface to release nitric oxide, thereby resulting
in dilation of vessels. Other cardioprotective properties of nitric oxide
include reduction of inflammation and decreased platelet aggregation.[17][18]
Laughter has proven beneficial effects on various other aspects of biochemistry.
It has been shown to lead to reductions in stress hormones such as cortisol andepinephrine.
When laughing the brain also releases endorphins that
can relieve some physical pain.[19] Laughter
also boosts the number of antibody-producing cells and enhances the
effectiveness of T-cells, leading to a stronger immune system.[20] A
2000 study found that people with heart disease were 40 percent less likely to
laugh and be able to recognize humor in a variety of situations, compared to
people of the same age without heart disease.[21]
In
interaction
A
number of studies using methods of conversation
analysis and discourse
analysis have
documented the systematic workings of laughter in a variety of interactions,
from casual conversations to interviews,meetings, and therapy sessions.[22] Working
with recorded interactions, researchers have created detailed transcripts that
indicate not only the presence of laughter but also features of its production
and placement.
These studies challenge several widely held assumptions about the nature of
laughter. Contrary to notions that it is spontaneous and involuntary, research
documents that laughter is sequentially-organized and precisely placed relative
to surrounding talk. Far more than merely a response to humor, laughter often
works to manage delicate and serious moments. More than simply an external
behavior “caused” by an inner state, laughter is highly communicative and helps
accomplish actions and regulate relationships.
Causes
See also: Theories
of humor
Common causes for laughter are sensations of joy and humor;
however, other situations may cause laughter as well.
A
general theory that explains laughter is called the relief theory. Sigmund
Freud summarized
it in his theory that laughter releases tension and "psychic energy". This
theory is one of the justifications of the beliefs that laughter is beneficial
for one's health.[23] This
theory explains why laughter can be used as a coping
mechanism when
one is upset, angry or sad.
Philosopher John
Morreall theorizes
that human laughter may have its biological origins as a kind of shared
expression of relief at the passing of danger. Friedrich
Nietzsche,
by contrast, suggested laughter to be a reaction to the sense of existential loneliness
and mortality that only humans feel.
For example: a joke creates
an inconsistency and
the audience automatically try to understand what the inconsistency means; if
they are successful in solving this 'cognitive riddle'
and they realize that the surprise was
not dangerous, they laugh
with relief.
Otherwise, if the inconsistency is not resolved, there is no laugh, as Mack
Sennett pointed
out: "when the audience is confused, it doesn't laugh." This is one of the
basic laws
of a comedian,
referred to "exactness". It is important to note that sometimes the
inconsistency may be resolved and there may still be no laugh.[citation
needed] Because
laughter is a social mechanism, an audience may not feel as if they are in
danger, and the laugh may not occur. In addition, the extent of the
inconsistency (and aspects of it timing and rhythm) has to do with the amount of
danger the audience feels, and how hard or long they laugh.
Laughter can also be brought on by tickling.
Although most people find it unpleasant, being tickled often causes heavy
laughter, thought to be an (often uncontrollable) reflex of the body.[24][25]
Types
Laughter can be classified according to intensity: the chuckle, the titter, the
giggle, the chortle, the cackle, the belly laugh, the sputtering burst.[26][27] According
to the overtness: snicker, snigger, guffaw. According to the respiratory pattern
involved: snort. According to the emotion it is expressed with: relief, mirth,
joy, happiness, embarrassment, apology, confusion, nervous
laughter,paradoxical
laughter, courtesy
laugh, evil
laughter.
Laughter can be classified also according to the sequence of notes or pitches it
produces. It may be subjectively measured on the Andreoli scale
for heartiness, with a higher measure denoting greater robustness, generally in
a manly aspect.
Human laugh structure and anatomy[edit]
A
normal laugh has the structure of "ha-ha-ha" or "ho-ho-ho." It is unnatural, and
one is physically unable, to have a laugh structure of "ha-ho-ha-ho." The usual
variations of a laugh most often occur in the first or final note in a sequence-
therefore, "ho-ha-ha" or "ha-ha-ho" laughs are possible. Normal note durations
with unusually long or short "inter-note intervals" do not happen due to the
result of the limitations of our vocal cords. This basic structure allows one to
recognize a laugh despite individual variants.[28]
It
has also been determined that eyes moisten during laughter as a reflex from the
tear glands.[20]
Negative aspects
Laughter is not always a pleasant experience and is associated with several
negative phenomena. Excessive laughter can lead to cataplexy,
and unpleasant laughter spells, excessive elation, and fits of laughter can all
be considered negative aspects of laughter. Unpleasant laughter spells, or "sham
mirth," usually occur in people who have a neurological condition, including
patients with pseudobulbar
palsy, multiple
sclerosis and Parkinson's
disease.
These patients appear to be laughing out of amusement but report that they are
feeling undesirable sensations "at the time of the punch line."
Excessive elation is a common symptom associated with manic-depressive psychoses
and mania/hypomania.
Those who suffer from schizophrenic psychoses seem to suffer the opposite—they
do not understand humor or get any joy out of it. A fit describes an abnormal
time when one cannot control the laughter or one’s body, sometimes leading to
seizures or a brief period of unconsciousness. Some believe that fits of
laughter represent a form of epilepsy.[29]
Laughter therapy
Laughter has been used as a therapeutic tool
for many years because it is a natural form of medicine. Laughter is available
to everyone and it provides benefits to a person's physical, emotional, and
social well being. Some of the benefits of using laughter therapy are that it
can relieve stress and relax the whole body. It can also boost the immune system
and release endorphins to
relieve pain. Additionally, laughter can help prevent heart
disease by
increasing blood flow and improving the function of blood vessels. Some of the
emotional benefits include diminishing anxiety or
fear, improving overall mood, and adding joy to one's life.
Laughter therapy also has some social benefits, such as strengthening
relationships, improving teamwork and reducing conflicts, and making oneself
more attractive to others. Therefore, whether a person is trying to cope with a
terminal illness or just trying to manage their stress or anxiety levels,
laughter therapy can be a significant enhancement to their life.[30][31]
In
literature
Laughter in literature, although considered understudied by some,[32] is
a subject that has received attention in the written word for millennia. The use
of humor and
laughter in literary works has been studied and analyzed by many thinkers and
writers, from theAncient
Greek philosophers onward. Henri
Bergson's Laughter:
An Essay on the Meaning of the Comic (Le
rire, 1901) is a notable 20th-century contribution.
