Laughter Triggers

Laughter originates from Broca’s area in the left frontal lobe that produces audible speech. Laughter is a sound, a form of speech. It can be triggered by a sense of humor, the laughter of others (it is catching!), surprise, fright, emotion, and personal choice to laugh. There are many types of laughter: angry, sad, fearful, happy, sarcastic, rueful, and mirthful. Studies have shown that mirthful laughter provides the most benefits to the brain and immune system. As with a sense of humor, when and where it is appropriate to laugh is learned, starting in childhood. Lord Byron reportedly put it this way: Always laugh when you can; it is cheap medicine.
