As you scroll through this list, you may find yourself in moments of hearty laughs. And apart from the expected mood boost, laughter brings other benefits that people don’t typically talk about.
As Yale lecturer and best-selling author Emma Seppälä pointed out, incorporating something funny into learning can help you engage with the material more. This is also true for toddlers.

You’ve likely read about the mental benefits of laughter. Studies have suggested that humor can help reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. And according to Seppälä, even small bursts of chuckles can help manage feelings of distress.

They say laughter is the best medicine for a good reason. A study published in the National Library of Medicine found that frequent laughter, especially in social situations, was associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease.
“Laughter is known to buffer the effects of psychological stress, which is proposed as a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease,” an excerpt from the paper reads.

Apart from this list of memes, there are many other ways to incorporate more laughter into your life. The Mayo Clinic shared some suggestions, including trying laughter yoga.

Babies and grandparents just know. Naps are apparently generation skippers.

I did a job for a potential new large client who wanted to try our IT company. It required a lot of unpaid overtime. They were very happy and placed a huge order. The sales person got a big commission. I got a certificate of appreciation and round of applause at our company meeting.
If I ever look out my window, and Walton Goggins is just... there? I'll assume a Cool Day is about to happen.

I once jokingly made this my friend's home screen (minus the text) when he left his phone unlocked while running to the bathroom. Months later, he is still excited and has left it that way.

Why does she look like she's been abducted and is currently being held against her will?
