Humor and Stress: Laughter Reduces Stress!

Now if you don't already know why laughter reduces stress, then you should read it now. I'll wait for you here.

Had a good laugh?

Great. As you can see, laughing makes you happy because of the endorphins (happiness chemicals!) it releases.

Ok, great. Laughter is good for you. But how do you take advantage of this "stress-killer"?

Humor and Stress: Laugh! But How?

If you like to laugh, then maybe a funny movie, or TV show would be good for you.

If so, then check out the different ways you can make yourself laugh.

Once you've checked that out, it's time to go one step further.

You can start bringing in the humor! This will not only make you laugh but everybody around you!

There's no stress when everyone's getting a good laugh, right?

Right. But there's still one question...

How?

Start At Work.

Whenever your boss or colleague talks to you, reply in a humorous way.

"But I'm not funny. So how do I be funny?" you ask.

Everyone's funny. Not everyone's a comedian, however.

Even you have some "funniness" in you.

Have you ever cracked a joke before? Of course you have.

Therefore, just try to be in a more joking mood whenever someone talks to you.

For example...

When you're talking to your boss, jokingly mention the idea of you getting a raise.

Boss: "I see you've been working hard on that project."

You reply, "Yes, but my chair is too low and I can't fully see my computer. I think I need a "raise" to get the computer in full view!"

Bad example, I know.

But you were able to see the humor in that, right? Of course.

You don't have to laugh hysterically to see humor in something.

As long as you get a good smile and a laugh once in a while, your stress is history!

Humor and Stress: Being Funny Kills Stress!

Stress doesn't stand a chance against humor.

When you watch funny things and laugh, your body releases endorphins. That's great.

But when you take it one step further and be funny, your stress will be long gone.

Here's one last tip...

Whenever you want to add some humor,

"Go For The Throat".

Hmm?

Say something that people normally don't talk about, and put it in a light manner.

Why?

If you crack a joke about something that everyone talks about, it won't be funny.

Therefore, by humoring something not spoken about, people are likely to laugh.

Here's an example...

Let's say there is a very short-tempered woman (or man!) at work, and no one wants to say anything about it.

It's stressing everyone out (you too).

Everyone wants to say something, but no one wants to be the first one to do so.

Therefore, if you're first, they'll enjoy it because everyone's itching to hear something.

Crack a light joke about the short-tempered person.

Say something like, "She's always angry; her face is red like a tomato. I'm surprised it hasn't turned into tomato sauce!"

It's a silly joke, but you get the point, right?

Be humorous when no one else dares to be. It will kill all the stress and tension...
