The original clowns at hospitals were called Shriner clowns. They would hang out at hospitals at the pediatric wards cheering up the sick children. Beyond that you will often find them in pictures on the walls of doctors, dentists, and often around hospitals. It has positive effects on most small children. Extensive study of laughter as therapy has revealed a lot more in this area.

What is 15 minutes in a day? About the time it may take to fill your vehicle with gas? Call a friend or relative and say hi? Order a pizza from your favorite pizza joint (after the “please hold”)? Did you know there is a way to improve your health in the same amount of time? Researchers have shown that 15 minutes of laughter a day can have about the same benefits as a typical workout. It helps your blood flow which helps your heart. It also helps your immune system function better.

Researchers have spent a lot of time on the study of laughter and how it affects the body in many ways. Did you realize that laughter can do a lot more for you than just put a smile on your face? It plays a strong role in reducing blood pressure, stress and even helps you improve the effectiveness of your immune system. Some side effects that may be attributed to loss of humor are depression and other psychological disorders. They’ve compared the effect of laughter to drugs in a number of ways. If more people would become addicted to this “drug”, society might be a better place. Today’s a good day to start on it. Laughter as a science itself is important enough where researchers have spent lots of time on it, and still continue.

There’s a new drug going around. It’s making leaps and bounds in fighting stress, blood pressure problems, clogging of the arteries, and much more! This drug happens to be a miracle drug called LAUGHTER! It can help you in many areas of your life. While these problems can’t be stopped sometimes, there’s always stress for example; there is clear evidence that laughter will offset the stress and what it does to our bodies that leads to these problems. So add a big dose of LAUGHTER and now you are on the right track!

Remember the old saying, “laughter is the best medicine?” I am sure everyone has heard this as have I. Research shows that there is more truth to this than the usual evidence we all see in everyday life as well. They’ve proven it helps our hearts, blood flow, and in many other ways we never imagined. What, if someday you go to your physician and after your physical, they prescribe you a list of mash reruns and a few funny books? You might be surprised, though the prescription in some cases might be better than any pill on the market.
