Laughter is often seen as something simple — a reaction, a moment, a temporary feeling — but what if it’s actually a powerful tool for healing, connection, and transformation?
In this episode of All Things Good, we sit down with registered clinical counsellor and professional speaker Marla to explore the concept of Laughter Intelligence™ and how intentionally harnessing the energy of laughter can positively impact our mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing.
Together, we discuss the connection between joy and healing, how laughter affects the nervous system, why so many people lose touch with playfulness as they grow older, and how laughter can reduce defensiveness, build trust, and create space for deeper connection and personal growth.
This conversation is thoughtful, uplifting, and full of reminders that healing doesn’t always have to be heavy.
If you’ve been feeling emotionally exhausted, disconnected from joy, or simply needing a breath of lightness, this episode is for you.
✨ In this episode, we discuss:
What Laughter Intelligence™ is
The mental and physical benefits of laughter
Joy as a healing practice
The relationship between laughter and emotional safety
Why playfulness matters in adulthood
How laughter can strengthen relationships and resilience
