The At Health staff


1. UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND MEDICAL CENTER
Laughter is the "Best Medicine" for Your Heart
Laughter, along with an active sense of humor, may help protect you against a heart attack.

2. JOURNAL OF NURSING JOCULARITY
Physiological Effects of Laughter
The medical community has recognized the harmful effects of stress upon the health of individuals for many years.

3. CAROLINA HEALTH AND HUMOR ASSOCIATION
Laughter as Therapy: The Results are Excellent
Though not an immediate cure for trauma, chronic illness, or emotional difficulty, humor can be a therapeutic tool.

4. ASSOCIATION FOR APPLIED THERAPEUTIC HUMOR
Laughter and Mental Flexibility
Humor is one of the healthiest and most powerful methods to help provide perspective on life's difficult experiences.

5. HUMORMATTERS
Using Humor in the Counseling Relationship
As with all therapeutic interventions the counselor must ask him/her self, "How will this humor help my client?"

6. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
Stress and Your Health
With all we have going on in our lives, it seems almost impossible to find ways to de-stress. But it’s important to find those ways. Your health depends on it.
