Image titled Laugh Step 1
If you’re having a hard time laughing, try starting with a smile. Even a fake smile can trick your body into feeling happier, which can make it easier to slip into laughter. Train yourself to smile as you’re working, jogging, and even while you’re concentrating reading a book. Make a nice smile your go-to face.
As you’re walking to work or to the bus, make a point of smiling at each stranger you pass on your way. It’s a good way to practice and get ready for laughing, and it’s also polite.
If you’re having trouble even smiling, try making a list of things that you’re grateful for. That can make it easier to see more of the positive things around you.[3]
