The most wasted of all days is one without laughter. ~ E E. Cummings

Our immune system reacts to laughter in an opposite way as it reacts to stress. People who like to laugh a lot rarely get sick. The analgesic effect of laughing has been showed in many studies. This is especially available for the relief of chronic pain in lesions, neurological diseases etc. Doctors are of opinion that laughing brings about the secretion of endorphins into blood. More than that, it is known that laughing is a strong muscle-relaxing method, which also relieves pain. ~ (Wikipedia)
