Association for Applied and Therapeutic Humor

About This Association

You know what we’re talking about: laughter feels great! Sometimes moments of humor and laughter can almost feel like a magical, euphoric experience. At AATH, we study the science behind those experiences and how we can intentionally apply humor to make people’s lives better. Did you know that humor’s innumerable health benefits include significant stress reduction, greater pain tolerance increased blood flow, and enhanced immune function? Plus, it has a wealth of other benefits, such as improved memory retention, enhanced trust, credibility, connection, and empathy. It even improves memory retention—did we already mention that one? ;) If humor’s so amazing, shouldn’t we all be trying to work more of it into our lives? That’s where AATH comes in. We enhance the health, well-being, and performance of people, organizations, and communities through humor.
