Ways to laugh
When you feel too stressed to laugh out loud, reach for a humor tool.
Humor tools don't have to be props. A funny picture or an object that makes you smile or laugh works just as well.
"On my desk I have little flat glass circles with smiley faces on them," says Britten. "Every time I walk into my office ... I see those smiley faces, and I immediately feel better."
•Don't forget that funny people may be around you. "You build your sense of humor when you hang around with people who laugh at the same things you do,"
•Find those things that always make you laugh
•Remembering those things during times when they are not present.
•Laugh about how you didn't laugh on time.
•Express Yourself
The best way to cheer yourself up is
to try to cheer somebody else up.” -
Mark Twain
