●Laughter, Health And Dogs●


There are many advantages of laughing. To begin with laughing makes an improvement on the blood circulation. It keeps us healthy by enriching the blood with ample supplies of oxygen. According to an experiment laughing increased blood flow by more than 20 percent, and lasted for 30-45 minutes. Next laughing reduces negative effects of stress, like high blood pressure and heart disease and even expands the blood vessels. Laughing even reduces pain. Children watching comedy films relax more and tolerate pain more easily. In fact, humorous videos are being used in anesthetic rooms at Manchester Children's Hospital, and an American nurse has found that telling jokes to her patients before she administers a painful treatment reduces their discomfort.

Look what I found on the internet last week. This video clip shows dumb dogs acting weird in a funny voice, like one of the dogs walks upside-down and the other gets too exited and falls in an aquarium. I can’t explain why it’s so funny, but it makes me fun and relaxed. People who like dogs will especially enjoy these video clips.
