The use of humor functions as a valuable strategy to build resilience together with fostering connection between people when difficult situations arise.
-Laughter activates endorphins to release from the body which promotes natural good feelings. The production of stress hormones like cortisol decreases while blood pressure lowers down and the immune system receives protection through this process.
Humor enables people to separate from unpleasant circumstances so they can view problems in fresh ways. Through humor we discover strange elements in our lives while changing difficult problems into less overwhelming circumstances.
The act of laughing produces emotional relief by letting stress and intense emotions like sadness and worry express in safe approaches.
Agreeable social bonds manifest when laughter connects different people. The shared experience of humor helps people building relationships by breaking down social boundaries and improving connection with others.
Through humor the life context today can experience transformation. Humorous perspectives will redirect our attention from pessimistic forces toward building positive outlooks about life.
Examples
-Contacting others through laughter causes positive impacts on both their mood and relationship development.
-People who search for funny elements in everyday situations develop perspective while avoiding negative emotions.
-Humor acts as a tool to process challenging emotions when people create self-laughing humor campaigns or identify humorous aspects from difficult life events which both help retain emotional strength.
