Laughter makes for a Happy Workplace

I am lucky to work with a group of people where we take time to have some fun within our working day - it can be as simple as sharing a story or a funny video but it makes for a great environment to work in and encourages a great team atmosphere as well as creativity.  Laughter sets off a reaction in our brains which releases endorphins that improve our mood and reduces the levels of stress hormones in our body.  It is estimated as adults we only laugh 14 times a day whereas children can laugh up to 400 times a day. So give it a go in your office and see how much happier your working life becomes.
