Humor is a magnet connecting humans, and laughter serves as a universal language. In recent years, humor has become accepted in the medical community as a healing tool and coping mechanism for stress reduction. Humor and laughter have well-researched health benefits, and in today’s stressful world, most of us could probably use more humor and laughter for our overall well-being. But just what is humor? In this workshop, we will define humor, explore the psychological, biological, and social benefits of humor and its “offspring,” laughter; discuss types of humor, share tips for getting more humor and laughter into our lives; and experience the therapeutic value of humor through several interactive exercises.
