National Let’s Laugh Day

National Let’s Laugh Day is celebrated every year on March 19th. It is a day dedicated to the joy of laughter and to encourage people to find humor in everyday life.

On National Let’s Laugh Day, people are encouraged to share jokes, watch funny movies, and just let loose and have a good laugh.

Laughter is a powerful tool that can help us deal with difficult situations and cope with stress. It has been shown to lower levels of stress hormones such as cortisol and increase the production of endorphins, which are natural painkillers and mood enhancers. Laughter can also improve the function of blood vessels and increase blood flow, which can lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart disease.

Not only does laughter have physical benefits, but it can also have positive effects on mental health. Laughter can help us feel more positive and optimistic, reduce anxiety and depression, and improve overall well-being. It can also strengthen relationships and promote social bonding, as laughter is contagious and can bring people together.

On National Let’s Laugh Day, there are many ways to incorporate laughter into our lives. Watching a funny movie or TV show, reading a humorous book, or listening to a comedy podcast are all great ways to get a good laugh. Sharing jokes with friends and family or playing a silly game can also be a fun way to celebrate the day.

One of the best things about laughter is that it is free and accessible to everyone. It doesn’t matter where you are or what you’re doing, you can always find something to laugh about. Whether it’s a funny meme on social media, a silly video on YouTube, or a joke from a friend, there are countless opportunities for laughter in our daily lives.

In addition to its physical and mental health benefits, laughter can also have a positive impact on our relationships. Sharing a laugh with someone can help break down barriers and build trust and intimacy. Laughter can also help diffuse tension in difficult situations and make it easier to navigate conflicts.

Laughter is a universal language that can bring people together regardless of their background or culture. It is a powerful tool for promoting empathy and understanding, and can help bridge divides between people. When we laugh together, we are reminded of our shared humanity and the things that make us all unique and special.

In today’s fast-paced and often stressful world, it can be easy to forget to laugh and have fun. National Let’s Laugh Day serves as a reminder to take a break from our worries and just enjoy life. It’s a day to let loose, be silly, and embrace the joy of laughter.

About the Author: Yvonne Wonder

As the founder and managing director of Destination Sitters, LLC, a national hotel and event babysitting service, and the mother of two children, I strongly believe that family comes first. I personally needed babysitting when I moved to San Diego 14 years ago. Like most parents, I assumed there were standards for temporary babysitting; in reality, there are no state standards or licensing requirements for temporary babysitting. The idea for Destination Sitters was born! I wanted to Give Parents Peace of Mind® when traveling with their children, so I created strict screening requirements for the sitters we refer. There is nothing like the peace of mind that comes from getting great professional help to care for your children, especially when traveling away from home. I and my partners, along with our office staff, have that one goal in mind with everything we do. Through the years of working with children, I have been inspired to write three books, and this blog for parents’ and children’s wellbeing. I believe the best way to teach a child is leading by example, with love, honesty, integrity, compassion, perseverance, and personal responsibility. Learning these values and teaching children that all women and men are equal will encourage them to dream big to be anything they want to be! An entrepreneur for over 35 years, I previously spent years running a construction and design company with two offices in California and built million-dollar estates and remodeled existing ones. For three and half years, I was one of the primary designers on HGTV’s Curb Appeal. I have also been published in books, magazines and newspapers, and have been a featured designer in multiple showcase houses.
