Why Laughter Is Contagious

Genuine joy is actually contagious and science proves it. When you see someone laughing like this,

your brain releases the same happy chemicals as if you were laughing yourself. It's called emotional

mirroring and it happens automatically. That's why scrolling through happy content can literally shift

your entire mood in seconds. But here's what most people miss. The more you expose

yourself to authentic happiness, the more your brain rewires to find joy in everyday

moments. So next time you catch yourself smiling at a stranger's laughter,

lean into it. Your brain is doing exactly what it's designed to do. What's the last

thing that made you laugh so hard you couldn't stop?
