Laughter strengthens our relationships by bringing positive feelings and building emotional connections.When we laugh with one another,a positive bond is created.This bond fights stress,disagreements,and disappointment.
Shared laughter is one of the most effective tools for keeping relationships fresh and exciting.All emotional sharing builds strong and lasting relationship bonds.Laughter unites people during difficult times.
Having more humor and play into your daily interactions can improve the quality of your love relationships-as well as your connections with co-workers,family members,and friends.
Laughter is your birthright,a natural part of life that is inborn.Little babies begin smiling during the first weeks of life and laugh out loud within months of being born.Even if you did not grow up in a family where laughter was a common sound,you can learn to laugh at any stage of life.
One essential characteristic that helps us laugh is not taking ourselves too seriously.We've all known someone who takes everything with deathly seriousness and never laughs at anything.No fun there!
