Gorman, J. (2011, September 13). Scientists hint at why laughter feels so good.
The New York Times, p. A14. Retrieved from http://www.nytimes.com/
Dr. Robin Dunbar at Oxford, demonstrated that laughter produces enough endorphin to increase
pain resistance, which is a direct outcome of the nervous system; laughter is also a very common
reaction when being either in love or in enlightened love.
In addition, Dr. Provine showed that relaxed contagious social laughter is not only a very strong
way of creating bonding between humans, but also among primates. Which demonstrates that
positive relationships-which usually involve love in its many ways- are an important source for
humans to subsist as social beings, and through relationships an individual can evolve spiritually.
