The healing powers of laughter have been acknowledged in the most ancient of cultures, from Greece to north-east Asia to South America. Today leading doctors are again recognizing the importance of laughter as an effective antidote to stress. In this book, the author shows how laughter should be valued as a basic need - as important as love and life itself - and he presents more than 50 prescriptions for feeling good again, celebrating being alive, enhancing loving relationships, embracing health and happiness, profiting from fun and play at work, improving your laughter-life and enjoying new beginnings. Two years after he launched the first-ever Stress Buster clinic on the National Health Service in Great Britain in 1989, Robert Holden pioneered the first ever NHS laughter clinic. He also wrote "Stress Busters".
