Laughing is the best way to feel good

Everyone knows that to laugh is contagious.
Even if most scientists hate it, the psychologists think that the laugh is something like insane or crazy and the Holy Bible makes everything to discourage it.
It's important to know that to laugh contribute to change the mood and to eliminate stress and tiredness. In time of H1N1, the laughter helps the immune system to work better.
Why we should not laugh? It's free!

This is the phylosophy which is built "Laughology", the documentary-movie released last week about the laughter's phenomenon in the world. The director is Albert Nerenberg, a Canadian indipendent film-maker, who would tell to the audience the facility and the utility of the laugh.
The movie borns from a real life's episode. Albert and his partner Shannon were deeply sad by family losses when they received the birth of their first child. This event changes totally their lives.
One day, suddenly, their daughter started to laugh unfettered and naturally during the second month and she spreaded the laugh to everything and everyone near her.

This event in Albert's life brought himself to travel discovering the different way to laugh in the world.
He will meet the "Holy laughters", people who think God laughs through them, and the "Tanzanian laughter epidemic", villagers suffering from a curious 'laughing disease'.
Then Albert will know the Inuit, indigenous people who live in the Artic regions of Canada, that use laughter to resist to their cold climate.
At the end, he will analyze the case of a man who recovered himself from a fatal disease through laughter.

To remember to the people to laugh there is also an official event, the "World Laughter Day" that happens on the first Sunday on May. It is a positive manifestation for world peace and it is a way to build friendship through laughter.
The first celebration was on January 1998 in Mumbai, India, and was created by Madan Kataria, founder of the worldwide "Laughter Yoga" movement. It is an aspect of Yoga that uses laughter as an exercise to get the blood flowing.

Laughter is innate and is an excellent way to feel good, gaining health benefits, now and always.
So you can start to laugh out loud watching this video... :D
