In a recent Web Poll, I asked GON Readers, 'Do you laugh a lot?' Here are the results:

48% Yes, many times in a given day!

48% Sometimes, although I can definitely use more laughter in my life.

4% Never. I haven't been happy enough to laugh in quite some time.

Laughter is a vital part of life. It releases tension and stress, boosts the immune system, burns calories, triggers the release of endorphins, may help you live longer...and can result in you being more organized as well!

Here are 3 ways to draw more laughter into your life:

1) Come across something funny? Capture it. Use a journal to record funny things you see, hear, or read. When you need some laughter in your life, you'll have a journal filled with reference material. You can even cut out comics you see in newspapers or online, photos you've printed, etc. and tape them into your journal.

2) Give yourself a daily visual. Whether you need more laughter at home, at the office, or both, create a daily visual you...and others around you...can enjoy. I suggest a 'white board/cork board' combination where you can 'write' funny sayings, quotes, etc. AND also where you can 'pin up' comics, photos, and other visuals that make you feel like smiling and laughing. Here's an example of a a 'white board/cork board' combo:

3) Make your own 'library' of laughter sources. Find at least a dozen or more sources of laughter, like sitcoms on TV, funny podcasts, comedians who cater to your type of humor, funny authors, and 'laughter-inducers' in your own family and friends circle. Jot these down, and 'visit' these sources at least once a day...even if for only 10 minutes at a time.

Finally, remember that laughter is often a result of you allowing it into your life and mindfully practicing it daily!
