Steemit Engagement Challenge S5-W1: Laughter is The Best Medicine
Hello everyone,
The Steemit Engagement Challenge Season 5 weeek 1 is here and this is my entry for the theme of this week's contest from this community "laughter is the best Medicine" by @steembetterlife
Human existence is full of ups and downs. Everyone is going through various battles and pains in life, but we can conquer them all. The truest feasible way to withstand all the pains is a good Laugh. Laughter is understood to be a beneficial treatment for pain, stress, and conflict. Nothing seems to work more rapidly to restore someone’s mental and physical health than having a good laugh.
Laughter is simply the expression of happiness, joy, pleasure, or derision with a clear, vocal expulsion of air from the lungs varying from a loud burst of sound to a sequel of giggles which is usually accompanied by distinct facial and bodily movements.
One of the nicest feelings in the whole wide world that also brings with it so much delight to life is laughter. It is deemed one of the best medications in the world for both the young and the old. Be it a smile or just a tiny little giggle, it has the power to completely alter the aura and mood of the surroundings. Likewise, it also has the power to make you feel good and everyone feels positive vibes as it's contagious. This contest theme is designed to teach us the valuable benefits of inculcating laughter in day-to-day life.
Laughter acts as an influential remedy for pain, stress, and conflict. There is absolutely nothing that helps in bring back the mind and body into harmony faster than a good laugh. Also, it helps lightens one's burden. Thus, laughter has so ample powers to restore and heal one’s mind and body. Furthermore, the potential to laugh oftentimes is the best way to surmount difficulties. Similarly, it underwrites your emotional and physical health. Plus, laughter strengthens your relationships.
A good hearty laugh always alleviates a person from all stress and bodily anxiety. Hence, even the muscles are relieved tension after a good laugh. Laughter is proven to have boosted the immune cells in one's body and curtailed stress hormones. Thus, it assists in enhancing a person’s resistance power against sickness and diseases. Laughter also can increase the blood circulation in your body and also the performance of blood vessels. Thus, it can boost one's ability in protecting him/her against a heart attack.
Also, laughter enables you to feel good. That feel-good feeling you get during laughter stays with you even when you stop laughing. Therefore, laughter comforts you with an encouraging view in tough times.
People often say "Happiness brings about laughter" but I am of the believe that Laughter provides happiness.
Laughing is a process known to Release Endorphins. Endorphins are tiny neurochemicals in our body that act as pain relievers. So, when you laugh, it discharges endorphins. Hence, it helps in curtailing the pain and enhancing your mood in general.
One of the easiest and most free medicine to reduce your blood pressure is laughter. The best thing about laughter is that there are no after-effects of laughter but only favourable effects on one’s well-being with laughter. Therefore, it is vital to have a daily dose of laughter to help you control your blood pressure.
Laughter is a good medication that helps in reducing the stress hormones level in one’s body. Hence, it eventually reduces the anxiety and stress in your body thus, curtailing the negative impact of stress on you which will ultimately lead to higher immune performance.
Of course, watching and seeing funny movies and incidents, and funny skits make me laugh.
When I was much younger, I found many things funny. As a big fan of Animation, Sponge bob was one of the numerous TV shows that made me laugh. My favourite character was always the undisputed Mr Krab. All the characters were outrageous and cracked many funny jokes throughout the show.
As I grew older, I find Mr Beans very funny and effective as he shows comedy not verbally but physically. From how he walks to his facial expressions are exhilarating. The stupidity he displays is also very entertaining as he uses no logic.
Some other guys that I currently laugh at are Mr Funny and Trevor Noah. I constantly look out for Mr Funny's new clips and Trevor Noah's programs.
One other person who wouldn't stop making me laugh is my two-year-old Nephew, he can make every single person in this house laugh anytime he wants.
At first, I couldn't imagine how funny this would be until I saw the reactions of my victim, my little Nephew. On his birthday, this past August, His dad got him new shoes, so he was over the moon with joy about it that he can't wait to wear them.
The next morning, I stuff a clean pair of socks in the toes of the new shoes, so when he put them on, his feet couldn't fit in. He was all over the living room wishing to go back to his old age, that he's overgrown his new shoes in space of one night.
My big boy on his new shoes after the prank, he was over the moon |

Also, there is this prank called "A Fools Message". Back in secondary school, being a boarding school student, this was our number one prank for new intakes. Where we would send the new intakes to get us a certain item from a senior, so when the student walks up to a particular senior and ask for the item, the senior directs him to another senior like that till they get tired, if not you continue till nightfall and I have been both a victim and a perpetrator.
To this day, if I remember the various reactions, I still laugh my eyes out.
If you go through my various works, you will see that, I am a big advocate for people smiling. Hence, always having that tiny whiny smile and laughter on your face could be the best way to live a healthy life. Don’t take the situations of life so seriously that you forget to put on laughter. Never go a single day without laughter as life only become more stressful with it.

Having being in a boarding school, I remember the fools message, you will just hate your first day in school if you take it serious. There is one we ised to do in school then, I think eve of valentine, I can't really remember where we would prank our fellow friends or juniors when they are asleep.

Thank you ma, for always supporting and educating me, will make that correction right now.
Thank you! ☕
I think I can remember this prank "A Fools Message", mother's also do it especially when you are disturbing the house too much , they will just send you on an impossible errand to the far neighborhood and ask you to get something that doesn't exist.
Yoruba mother's are very funny 🤣.
Very true, my mother was number one on that too.. Especially when she's eating and we are standing around watching or begging for our share.. She would send us to call someone who doesn't exist for her from the next neighbour, that neighbour hearing the name knows what it means, will send us to the next till we get exhausted and return home to meet nothing.. I think we the boarding school students got the idea from them.
Thank you for your wonderful contributions..
