About this listen

We explore how humour helps us handle stress, anxiety, and life’s clatter without ignoring pain. A rogue bush turkey sparks a deeper look at the body’s laugh response, thought defusion, and why timing and validation matter when using comedy as a coping tool.

• acknowledging Country and setting the scene in Sydney
• the bush turkey saga as a catalyst for laughter
• why some laugh in crisis and others only later
• what laughter does to the diaphragm, hormones and breath
• using humour to defuse anxious thoughts and gain distance
• paradox of approaching fear instead of pushing it away
• validation needs, boundaries and timing with jokes
• practical tools: mechanical laughter, comic voices, silly imagery
• habit-building for resilience and lighter problem solving
• closing reminders on safety, critical thinking and community
