We need laughter. Especially this year. So why not take a break and chuckle?

After all, here’s what happens when you laugh:

  • Laughter can cause the tissue that forms the inner lining of blood vessels to dilate and expand and thus increase blood flow
  • Laughter boosts immune systems
  • Laughter increases your pain tolerance
  • Laughter exercises your facial, abdominal and chest muscles
  • Laughter improves the function of your brain
