Types of laughter therapy Treatment with humor He relies on humor in self-therapy, using methods of books, entertainment programs, movies, and novels that encourage patient laughter. It is possible to do this individually or in the form of therapeutic groups, but the second does not come to the desired result, especially if the doctor is the person who provides the treatment and not the patient himself; because it is difficult to consider all patients participating in the joke to the material submitted to them as They offer a "joke" that helps them to raise their spirits. Treatment with a vulva In the hospital and specialized treatment centers, the "clown", which is part of the treatment, is located by passing through the rooms and performing many tasks that help the treatment, especially for children: magic, play, music, fun, or tenderness for the child. One of the benefits of this treatment is that it strengthens the spirit of cooperation in children, reduces anxiety in the child who wants to have a permanent presence with him, reduces the need to use sedatives in some, reduces the pain, and stimulates the efficiency of the functions of the immune system. We find that this type of treatment is not limited to hospitals only, but can be employed in shelters for children, nurseries, places of war and prisons. Treatment with laughter stimuli Here, the doctor prepares a "laugh stimuli file" for the patient, by collecting information from the person who wants this type of treatment about the things that motivate him to laugh since childhood from the positions and jokes he prefers. Through this information, the doctor trains the individual on some exercises that he exercises to stimulate laughter, and reminds him of the importance of social relations as part of the treatment. The doctor has a great responsibility: how to differentiate between what the patient interprets as a teaser from his point of view, and what is not a joke, which is not easy.

The yoga is either for supplementary or preventive treatment, and is a 30-45 minute exercise led by a trainee. The following steps include breathing exercises, yoga, and lengthening with laughter. In this type we do not need to use or resort to laughing materials. Meditation of laughter This type of person can be performed alone without recourse to medical advice or specialized assistance. The laughter is a reflection of an exercise that lasts for about 15 minutes and is more useful with people who find it difficult to laugh. The laughter exercise consists of three stages: Prolonged phase: A person directs all his energies to lengthen every muscle of his body without laughter. Laughter stage: the person begins to laugh gradually with a smile until it reaches deep laughter from the stomach or acute. Meditation stage: The person stops laughing and closes his eyes and breathes without a sound with a sharp focus
