Steps

Part 1 of 3: Finding humor

1. 

   Smile more. Studies have shown that people often smile more when holding straws between their teeth instead of holding them with their lips. This is because the body naturally responds to the sensation of a smile and assumes that laughter will come. When you are ready to laugh, your body is deceived if you smile more.
   • Many people inherently have a frown even when normal. Practice smiling while working, running, and even while reading a book. Always have a bright smile on your face every day.
   • When walking to work or to the bus stop, be sure to smile at strangers you meet on the way. This is a great way to practice and be willing to smile, and also show courtesy.

2. 

   
   
   Be around people who make you laugh. Get ready for a fun night out with friends and share your troubles at work with your high school roommates. If you're feeling sad and it's hard to smile, it's worse if you are around people who are always sad. Instead of hanging out with people who upset you, hang out with people who always make jokes and make you laugh.
   • There is a bit of a negative side to mastering group chats. If you are in the middle of a group of whining people, move on to another topic. If people talk about the things they don't like, talk about the things you like. People will tend to imitate and follow, so an individual can reduce collective laughter. Rejuvenate with a few silly questions or tell a joke.
   • You don't have to stay away from people who lack a sense of humor, but try to find new friends that will always make you laugh and laugh. When you are with them, you will also be ready to smile.
   • You might consider sending jokes or funny videos to your friends. This can make them laugh, and they can also send you funny things.

3. 

   
   
   Watch entertaining comedies and TV shows. Whether you prefer to watch theater or horror movies, pause this routine and watch shows featuring comedian Hoai Linh. Find the things that make you laugh the most and take the time to laugh instead of thinking too much about a good story being upset about a documentary.
   • If modern comedies don't make you smile, check out the old comedies. Watch Hoai Linh and Chi Tai do a comedy together, or watch one of Mel Brooks's excellent parodies. For foreign comedies, "The Golden Girls" and "Seinfeld" are always worth enjoying. Watch older movies like “All In the Family”, “I Love Lucy”, “The Honeymooners”, the Marx Brothers, Abbott & Costello, and Buster Keaton to understand the ancestors of comedy.
   • It doesn't matter how old you are: Tom & Jerry are also highly entertaining. Stir in a sugary cereal and return to your childhood every weekend morning.

4. 

   
   
   Turn off news. It's hard to laugh if you welcome the new day by listening to a series of news on economic atrocities and inequality on the radio. Instead, download comedies or listen to fun radio shows and read the afternoon news.
   • If you still want a lot of news from a humorous perspective, check out a humorous chat show like Stephen Colbert or John Oliver to help you (almost) stay on top of the news, but in a more pleasant way. much.
   • If you are a journalist, start with funny tidbits and real life stories before diving into the sad ones. Switch back and forth to keep your mood comfortable. Don't read too many negative things.

Part 2 of 3: Practice relaxation

1. 

   Laugh out loud. Learning to laugh at yourself is one of the biggest differences between happy people and troubled people. If you can turn difficult, erroneous, and flawed moments into an opportunity to delight in your naivety, then the grief will have less of an impact on you.
   • Laughing at yourself will help distinguish between "who you are" and "the things you do". Everyone will make mistakes sometimes, but that doesn't define who you are. Laughing at yourself will convey to yourself and those around you that it's not a big deal.

2. 

   Don't worry about the sounds of laughter. Everyone will have their own laugh, so as long as it's polite and appropriate, you don't have to worry about having a "bad" laugh. There will be no such thing.
   • If you feel tense when you smile and are always worried about what people will think of you, it's hard to really relax and be happy. If you are playing with people who make fun of other people's laughter, find new friends.
   • People often ignore a weird laugh. They are busy responding to humorous topics.

3. 

   Take it easy. You may be a busy person, but learning to spend time with yourself and by yourself will feel truly more relieved, calmer and ready to smile. Working hard is a good thing, but you should keep it in moderation, so learn to moderate your goals and stay competitive so that you will always be ready to laugh at yourself and enjoy life.
   • Be sure to do what you enjoy every day. Relax by playing on a recording and smiling and sipping on your favorite drink. Take control of your mood.
   • Try to add 15 minutes to your daily schedule so that you can do things like watch a funny movie or look at funny pictures online. If possible, try to schedule it right after the most stressful time of the day.

Part 3 of 3: Practice smiling

1. 

   Try to squeeze out laughter. When you're at home alone or driving to work, try to laugh as naturally as possible a few times. Usually, the body needs to be paced for the inspiration to smile. Even if you don't find something really funny to laugh at, just laughing at yourself can start a laughter.
   • Start with three short "ha ha ha" sounds and do a series of laughter to warm up. You will be surprised how forced laughter can quickly turn into natural laughter.
   • Think about the things that you found funny in the past and laugh with great smile. Remember those things during your laugh to stimulate laughter.

2. 

   Pay attention to the physics of laughter. Laughing regularly can boost your immune system, increase blood oxygen levels, tone your abdominal muscles, and release beneficial brain chemicals that can help boost your mood. When you smile, place your hand on your diaphragm and feel the laughter. Later, when you practice smiling, make sure you feel it in your body.
   • See smiling as a muscle maintenance exercise. Many medical professionals even encourage heart disease and cancer patients to smile as part of a holistic approach when combined with therapies like chemotherapy. Practice laughing loudly and laughing freely. You will feel better after that.
