The average child laughs 300 times in a day.
The average adult laughs only 30 times.
Laughing release a cocktail of hormones.
We release endorphins, giving us a similar feeling to a runner’s high
We lower our cortisol, making us feel calmer
And we release dopamine, the same hormone released during sex, making us feel more bonded
In essence, as far as our brains are concerned, laughing is like exercising, meditating and having sex at the same time.
