How your heart and brain are effected by laughter

Institute of heartmath The heart and brain maintain a continuous two- way dialogue, each influencing the other's functioning. The signals the heart sends to the brain can influence perception, emotional processing and higher cognitive functions. This system and circuitry is viewed by neurocardiology researchers as a "heart brain."

Human energy and happiness Think about a situation at work or at home where you have approached it in a negative manner. Now think of the same situation but choose a positive approach and see how it makes you feel. We produce 30 feet of energy in any given direction. Imagine what a room full of negative energy would feel like then imagine what a room full of positive energy would feel like! Laughter is a positive energy.
