Is laughing contagious?

”Laugh and the whole world will laugh with you… but when you cry, you cry alone.’ This time researchers have also proved this proverb scientifically to some extent. According to a new study, when we hear other people laughing, our brain areas that control laughing and smiling also get active, inspiring us to smile. Researchers have proved this fact after studying about 20 men, whose average age was 32.

Through this study it has become quite apparent that positive emotions like smiling, laughing has contagious impact on our self. At the same, time negative emotions like, weeping, sobbing, whining has negative impact on our self.

So, if you want to be happy so company those people who lead a happy life and try to take laughter with you wherever you go.
