We wanted to do this subject because I felt inspired after speaking to my therapist last week about the subject. Humor and laughter have always been a BIG part of life. I was raised being surrounded by it and I've raised my own children with lots of humor. When I have a funny experience and laugh hard, I feel so good afterwards. I love all kinds of shows to make me laugh. I have a couple definite favorites I will put in comments. Please add some funny movies or shows you recommend because I need some ideas.


"Humor is known to reduce stress and anxiety. It’s said to help boost the immune system."


"Humor cuts through the noise and overwhelm with a powerful clarity. We pay attention to what makes us laugh, and that’s for one simple reason: humor makes us feel good. "


"Laughter can be a great coping mechanism when you live with a chronic illness."


"But once my symptoms started to improve a bit and I understood more about what was happening, I tried being open and jovial with those who were treating me."


"When people laugh, their muscles relax, as their tension seems to melt away. Part of the reason is that we you laugh, your body releases chemicals called endorphins, which are natural substances that mimic the effects of powerful painkillers like morphine and codeine, without the danger of addiction."


"Laughter enhances your intake of oxygen-rich air, stimulates your heart, lungs and muscles, and increases the endorphins that are released by your brain."
