International Joke Day: Why are Jokes so important in our lives?

In today’s hectic life, it is important that there are a few moments when we relax and have fun. Jokes are one way of bringing that smile and laughter into your life and sharing some chilled moments with your near ones.

Jokes help you relax and release tension. On International Joke Day, know why jokes are such an important part of our lives.

Jokes boost the immune system

Jokes make you laugh and bring positivity to life. When you laugh it lightens the body and brings many physical changes in the body. Laughter is considered the best medicine and that is why many people even join laughter clubs so that they can enjoy a healthier and positive life. It improves the immune system thereby increasing the body’s ability to fight infections.

Jokes are good for the heart

Laughing improves blood circulation and helps keep the heart and the entire cardiovascular system in good condition. Jokes reduce the tension in the mind and contribute to keeping mood fresh thereby stimulating all the body organs.

Help control pain

Jokes bring a smile to your face thus stimulating the brain and making it release endorphins in large amounts. These endorphins work wonderfully well to reduce pain.

They help you socially, for image building

Those who have a good stock of jokes are the hot favourites at parties. These people can lighten any strained moment by cracking the right joke at the right time. Thus, socially you can be the darling of many if you have a pitara of jokes always with you. It also helps build an image as people love to be with someone who can make them laugh.

Those who can create a joke in the spur of the moment can use this as a technique to promote their business or use them to impress the seniors.

Ability to joke makes you wittier and sharp

Cracking a joke needs a lot of sharpness and presence of mind. Making someone laugh is an art in itself and if you develop a habit of telling or creating jokes out of the existing situation you end up being a sharper, wittier, and more interesting person.
