Can Laughter Fight COVID-19?
According to USA Today, They say laughter is the best medicine, and another study proves it.
Laughing improves the immune system, fights depression, and relieves tension, even in the midst of a worldwide pandemic. That’s the finding in a Penn State University study published Monday in the American Psychological Association journal Psychology of Popular Media.
The research showed that just looking at a few memes can help with emotional wellbeing and stress as well as bring out positive emotions. The study’s lead author says that humor can be a powerful tool to help cope.
The most interesting takeaway is that people who looked at memes having to do with their stressors, like COVID, began feeling more relaxed. So, go ahead and look at memes because they actually help!
