@AlzChat @fam6 @nchadborn @Glorias_Touch @LBUdementia @arnell97 @Twomey_A @MyTwoElaines So important in all care settings - we cannot underestimate the power of laughter - not only psychological and social but physical benefits - increased oxygen into blood stream, reduced blood pressure and even analgesic effects are all thought to be outcomes of laughing #AlzChat

#alzchat RT @NextAvenue This L.A. company (@laughteroncall ) pairs comedians with dementia patients for 'comedy care' https://t.co/Q0YDPJVlRZ
Emily Jones @emilyjonesmed
Also not just for people living with dementia but also for personal and professional carers- laughter and humour increases morale and builds resilience which potentially reduces burnout #AlzChat

that is a great ambition in life. Moments of joyfulness mean so much to people. Good to create environments where people feel relaxed and able to have fun - it can make a huge difference :) #AlzChat

@IRememberBetter @creativitycare Oh yes. I often forget #alzchat Spontaneous hilarity is what it’s all about. Tonight when launching still further our plastic cup stacking challenge thus quickly & inexplicably led to a rousing rendition of ‘show me the way to go home’- heaps joining in. Much guffawing ensued https://t.co/DdaAoPLa19

RT @journeyofcareM Laughter is infectious and I found that even if at first my mum doesn't get the humour of something, if I'm laughing uncontrollably/hysterically, she will start to laugh too. After the laughter, there's a lovely cathartic feeling. #AlzChat

@creativitycare @wendymo94921768 @TommyTommytee18 I think humour can be a good way to get a point across. I'd love to see a comedy skit where ppl are talking in the midst of a pwd as if they don't exist & then the pwd says/does something that brings the point home of their existence in a lighthearted, but memorable way. #AlzChat

@mindsetlaura great to read this #alzchat RT @mindsetlaura I've seen Laughter Yoga in action with people living with dementia in the later stages. With support, everyone participated, and it was very powerful.

@IRememberBetter That's look fun ! I think I might try this with mum. A few flyswatters, a balloon and a piece of string would suffice as a net. I think she'd be game. I'll let you all know when I try. And I bet we will laugh ! #Alzchat

RT @TommyTommytee18 · #alzchat @HitchmoughPaul @PatBroster @louise_langham @thredcic Humour gives us an overt expression of feelings without personal discomfort or unpleasant effects on others

RT @TommyTommytee18 #alzchat @HitchmoughPaul @PatBroster @louise_langham @thredcic You need humour Even if You might think there is nothing humorous about caring for a loved one with dementia, In order to maintain your sanity

@TommyTommytee18 #alzchat @HitchmoughPaul @louise_langham @PatBroster @thredcic It's a fact that Laughter has been found to lower blood pressure, massage important muscles, and release endorphins into the circulation

I have tweeted about how important humor was to me & my mom. But the humor has to be based on genuine respect for the capacity & capabilities of the person w/ a dementia. It’s not just making a person laugh. Accurate diagnosis is crucial to engender respect. #AlzChat
