Laugh more

When did you last laugh until your stomach hurt? Laughter is linked with lower stress, more relaxed muscles and a lighter mood, and it's one of the few wellness habits that costs nothing.

Laughing is also contagious and deeply social. We laugh far more with other people than we do alone, which is one more reason to spend time with the friends who make you giggle.

Today, put a little humor on your calendar. Watch a comedy special, swap funny videos with a friend, play a silly game with your kids or call the person who always cracks you up. Notice how your body feels afterward.
