Laughing Out Loud

Some people say that laughter is the best medicine. Scientists are beginning to agree with this. They
are studying laughter seriously and are finding that it is really good for us.
So what happens when we laugh? We use 15 different muscles in our face, and laughing is good
for every organ in our body. When we laugh, we breathe quickly and exercise the face, shoulders, and
chest. Our blood pressure goes down, and our circulation gets better. Our heartbeat is lower, and our
brain makes a natural painkiller called a beta-endorphin.
Every minute we laugh is the same as 45 minutes of relaxation. Many doctors around the world
believe that laughter helps us get better when we are sick.
Today, there are laughter clubs around the world. They try to improve people’s health with
laughter. The laughter clubs started in India. Now they are in many different countries. There are more
than 450 laughter clubs just in India. All kinds of people join a laughter club. They go once a day for 20
minutes and start to laugh. There are no jokes. People laugh as a kind of exercise, and everyone feels
better afterwards. Some people pay a lot of money to join a laughter club and just laugh.
Of course, there are many kinds of laughter. We may laugh in different ways when we are in
different situations. But we all have a laugh that is special to us.
How and when do you usually laugh? Does the following make you laugh?
Patient: Doctor! Doctor! Every time I drink coffee, I get a sharp pain in my eye.
Doctor: Well, take out the spoon.
