Harvard Business School professor Michel Anteby explores strategies used by both academic and entrepreneurial organizations that deal in the dead.

Cries of grief could stop reckless driving

01/05/2008

Soon, one year will have passed since Shingo Kazami, a TV personality, lost his 10-year-old daughter Emiru in a traffic accident. The girl was struck by a truck on Jan. 17, 2007, as she made her way to school. Kazami wrote in his blog in late December: "May a big smile light up the faces of many people in many places. May such a smile reach all the way to heaven. That's what your name, Emiru, means. Please forgive dad for wishing desperately to be able to somehow turn the clock back to New Year's Day, 2007."

Shingo Kazami is a japanese comedian and his 10-year-old daughter was killed by a 22-year-old driver who is accused of driving negligent

Is laughter the best medicine? Who knows, but it's loads of fun

12/29/2007

BY BECKY PALMSTRØM, CONTRIBUTING WRITER

We know how much better we feel after a good giggle, but laughter therapy suggests that even forced laughter can be beneficial. Yes, that fake laughter you squeeze out for your boss' humorless jokes might actually be good for your health.

The theory goes that laughing not only stimulates endorphins and the immune system, but also leads to the release of tension and a positive attitude. Through the physical action of laughing, you gain all of the benefits, regardless of the stimulus. The focus, as Mary Tadokoro, founder of Tokyo Laughter Club, explained, is on "faking it till you make it."

But how do you get strangers to laugh together, without large amounts of alcohol, clowns or humiliation? In my worst nightmares, I imagined Mary performing a stand-up comic routine. But swallowing my fears, I went along to find out.

Attendees ranged from a frail lady, with her grown-up daughter, to a university professor. We got straight to it. Apparently laughing activates the right, creative side of your brain, whereas language comes from the left, so one of the first rules is not to speak when you're laughing.

"I want you to laugh at each other's self-introductions," Mary instructed. It was disorienting to have a group of strangers greet my introduction with peals of manic forced laughter. But perhaps it was the beginning of a lesson in not taking myself so seriously. Indeed, as the session progressed, it seemed that the unexpected breaking of social norms freed us to laugh with varying degrees of genuineness.

As a group, we threw ourselves into "sexy laughs," "monster laughs" or "hyena laughs" accompanied by silly dancing or a taped baby's giggle. Laughing became the default response. By hour three, I was exhausted (or perhaps that was just the endorphin high).

As we sat crammed together on three yoga mats so we could feel the laughter vibrate through the group, it occurred to me that crying and laughter use the same stomach muscles. As soon as I thought that, I wished I hadn't. And once I started dwelling on what would happen if I burst into hysterical tears, it felt like the most natural thing in the world to do. My stomach kept contracting as I faked a giggle along with everyone else. I sternly told myself, "Don't you dare start crying ..."

Mary saved me just as I was about to break. She asked us to meditate on two songs. The first, Stevie Wonder's "I Just Called To Say I Love You" and Bob Geldof's "Do They Know It's Christmas?" Although this was the one point in the entire session, when knackered from the exertion of the last few hours, no one else was laughing, I couldn't stop a genuine giggle from escaping. This was better than stand-up comedy, and if Tokyo Laughter Club is to be believed, just as healthy.
