empathy through humor

Empathy through humor involves using wit or laughter to connect with others' feelings and experiences. It’s like sharing a funny story or joke that resonates with someone’s situation, helping them feel understood and less alone. This approach fosters emotional connection by acknowledging their perspective in a light-hearted way, making it easier for them to trust and open up. Instead of just laughing at a joke, humor becomes a bridge—showing care and understanding—creating a shared moment that deepens empathy and strengthens relationships.
