Life is a mixed bag of happy and not-so-happy moments. Sometimes we are brave enough to fight back but other times, we need help. The solution is humour - 100% effective antidote for your life problems. Situations may take time to get better but humour instantly makes you feel lighter.

## Why humour is important in life?

- When you are sad and life seems to be a curse, humour can only bring a ray of sunlight. You won't smile at once, but after a while, that's the only thing that'll comfort you.

- In any difficult or embarrassing situation, [a little pinch of humour](https://thoughtsbygeethica.com/2017/04/humour/) can only make you feel better. You can see more ways to come out of the phase as your mind can now focus better.

- Humour lets you shine in your circle of friends. People love your company and want to spend more time with you taking inspiration from the same.

- [Research](https://bigthink.com/neuropsych/humor-life-skill/) shows that humour improves your health and increases your productivity at work by enhancing your creativity. Don't you feel energetic and skilful at work when your mind is at peace? I can finish my tasks quickly and proficiently when I am happy.

## How does humour do the magic?

When I was a young mother at 23, during one of those postpartum depression phases, I asked myself; Why do we have kids? I didn't ask anyone but somehow started writing a poem. Coming to an end, I got many answers and felt so happy and satisfied. It was one of those moments when writing had clarified many of my life doubts.

Kids give you a reason to smile at the silliest things and feel better.

## Positive outlook helps

Your positive perspective to look at things helps you. I know it's not possible to smile every time you are in trouble but practising and making it a habit definitely helps you in the long run.

## Good company good thoughts

Being in the company of happy people matters. Other's thoughts influence us so why not be that of happy people? We tend to discuss our problems with people we trust but those people must carry a positive outlook. Else, we will carry their baggage too along with our own.

## Divert your mind to good things

When nothing helps then read books. I read comics because they make me laugh and humour is 100% effective antidote to sadness. Listening to music and practising Bharatanatyam changes my thought process and I feel better. Revising my dance notes and practising hand mudras while watching a video is also a part of learning and helping me calm my mind.

Any form of art is successful in keeping you busy and happy. When happiness empowers you, any situation is manageable.

Do you remember any humorous life incident that helped you lighten your mood?
