Tertawa Bikin Anda Lebih Sehat

Mengapa Tertawa Bikin Anda Lebih Sehat?

Orang tertawa karena mendengar atau melihat sesuatu yang lucu. Efeknya, orang tersebut bisa terhibur bahkan merasa bahagia. Dari sisi kesehatan, tertawa itu menyehatkan. Menurut penelitian, tertawa dapat meningkatkan kesehatan jantung, meningkatkan harapan hidup serta mengurangi rasa sakit.

Ketika seseorang tertawa, tubuh akan melepaskanneurontransmitter dan hormon yang dapat mengurangi hormon penyebab stres yakni kortisol dan adrnealin. Pada gilirannya, pelepasan ini membantu menurunkan tekanan darah. Saat tertawa, otot-otot seperti otot perut, wajah, kaki, dan punggung ikut bergerak. Selain itu, tertawa juga membuat paru-paru lebih berkembang sehingga lebih mudah bernapas.

Dampak positif dari tertawa ini memberi dorongan bagi sistem kardiovaskular tubuh. Pembuluh darah lancar karena tertawa menyebabkan darah lancar mengalir. Tertawa juga menyeimbangkan otak kanan dan kiri saat menanggapi sebuah lelucon.

Jantung sehat

Jika Anda ingin mengurangi risiko masalah penyakit jantung, cobalah dengan menonton film lucu. Rekomendasi penelitian dari Universitas Maryland menyarankan, tertawa sekitar 15 menit karena film dapat melancarkan pembuluh darah serta meningkatkan aliran darah.Menonton acara yang membuat Anda bisa tertawa sekitar 40 menit setelah makan dapat membatasi kenaikan kadar glukosa darah. Para peneliti percaya jika Anda tertawa, emosi positif akan muncul yang mempengaruhi sistem endokrin pada tubuh.

Tertawa juga membuat usia lebih lama. Sebuah studi terhadap 500 orang lebih yang berusia 95 tahun keatas menemukan, kepribadian yang santai, optimis, dan menikmati saat tertawa akan berumur lebih panjang. Namun, para peneliti belum mengetahui secara pasti dimana letak kaitannya.

"Ketika kami meneliti kepribadian 243 orang yang berusia lebih dari 100 tahun, kami menemukan kualitas yang mencerminkan sikap positif memandang kehidupan," kata Dr. Nir Barzilai dari Universitas Yeshiva, Amerika Serikat.

"Sebagian besar dari mereka hidup dengan rasa optimis besar dan santai. Mereka menganggap tertawa adalah bagian penting dalam hidup," jelasnya.

Orang Jujur Lebih Sehat dan Bahagia

Orang Jujur Lebih Sehat dan Bahagia





Untuk mendapatkan tubuh yang sehat, pastikan Anda selalu mengonsumsi buah dan sayuran, rutin berolahraga, serta menjauhi dusta. Menurut penelitian orang yang bersikap jujur lebih sehat secara fisik dan mental.



Sebuah penelitian menunjukkan orang Amerika rata-rata berbohong 11 kali dalam seminggu, mulai dari "bohong putih" semacam pujian, sampai ketidaksetiaan atau kebohongan yang lebih serius lainnya.

Menurut penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Anita Kelly, profesor psikologi dari Notre Dame, bila kita mengurangi jumlah kebohongan yang kita lakukan sebenarnya kita bisa mencapai kepuasan hidup yang lebih tinggi.

Ia melakukan penelitian dengan melibatkan 110 partisipan yang diminta untuk berhenti atau mengurangi berbohong, baik kebohongan kecil atau besar, selama 10 minggu. Sebagai pembanding, partisipan lainnya tidak diberi instruksi khusus tentang kebohongan.

Hasilnya, setelah orang dari kelompok yang dilarang berbohong tidak mengatakan kebohongan kurang dari tiga kali dalam seminggu, keluhan mereka akan sakit kepala, sakit tenggorokan, ketegangan, kecemasan, dan gangguan kesehatan lain, berkurang.

"Tidak berbohong sangat jelas berkaitan dengan kesehatan yang lebih baik," kata Kelly.

Selain kesehatan fisik, ternyata orang-orang dari kelompok dilarang berbohong itu merasakan adanya hubungan personal yang lebih baik dengan orang lain. Menyimpan kebenaran tentu membuat hubungan Anda dengan orang lain menjadi tidak tulus.

"Berbohong bisa menyebabkan stres pada banyak orang, memicu kecemasan bahkan depresi. Mengurangi kebohongan bukan hanya baik untuk hubungan Anda, tapi juga menyehatkan," kata Dr.Bryan Bruno, ketua departemen psikiatri dari Lenox Hill Hospital, New York City.

Kebiasaan berkata dan bertindak jujur selama 10 minggu juga membuat para partisipan itu lebih pintar menghindari kebohongan. Misalnya saja merespon pertanyaan yang bisa mengarahkan pada kecenderungan untuk berbohong dengan pertanyaan lain sebagai pengalih.
