Everybody likes to have a good time, but did you know that laughing is good for your health? Scientists believe that laughing can help your body fight illness. Because of this, an Indian doctor opened the first laughter club in 1995.
There are now more than 1000 laughter clubs around the world. A laughter club is a place where you can go to laugh your way to happiness and good health. Steve Wilson, the man who took laughter clubs to America, said,”We laugh with each other but never at each other. At first the laughter exercises feel a bit false. But soon the laughter becomes real.’
Laughter is very important when we communicate with other people. It helps us make friends and understand each other better. We can laugh with people all over the world. It is the same in any language. So don’t be afraid to laugh. It’s good for your health.
