Humor Relief for Cancer Patients
Being
diagnosed with cancer is disturbing, frightening,
depressing and certainly
not
funny.
It’s not surprising that many cancer patients say they’ve
lost their sense of
humor. Yet the wonderful benefits of laughter can bring
great comfort in times of illness.
Did you know that deep laughter can help ease pain…
sometimes for hours afterwards? Laughter helps us breath
deeply which stimulates our inner organs and sends more
oxygen to our brains. Laughter releases powerful chemicals
that boost our mood and help us to relax and think more
clearly. Hearty laughter also helps us to relieve stress so
we can sleep more soundly … once
we stop laughing that is.
