Laugh it up!
When you re-discover your Self, that's the big 'S' self, you become the light. You burst out of your imaginary restraints, exclaiming with laughter and happiness.
Check out Steve Ross's book "Happy Yoga." Great, comprehensive book on what yoga is all about, with a good section on humor.
Laughter connects us with others. Also, laughter is contagious, so if you bring more laughter into your life, you can most likely help others around you to laugh more, and realize these benefits as well. By elevating the mood of those around you, you can reduce their stress levels, and perhaps improve the quality of social interaction you experience with them, reducing your stress level even more!
