Rest and Relaxation

One of the short-term effects of laughter is a nice rest. When you start to laugh, it induces physical changes in your body. Laughter has the ability to activate and relieve your stress response, giving you the sensation of a relaxed feeling. Laughter can also soothe tension. A good laugh stimulates circulation and aids muscle relaxation, which reduce physical symptoms of stress.
