Sympathetic energy can be released and expressed in so many ways! Sometimes it may come as fear or anger, but it can also come as laughter and excitement! This could have been that. Maybe some old sympathetic charge finding its way joyfully out, or maybe there was simply a great relief and happiness in the body, from being paid attention to in this way.

Finally, it’s also possible that the laughter was a form of protection, that there is also some fear and/or anger in the mix, but it expressed as laughter because the other ways it could have moved would have been too uncomfortable.
