Who doesn’t love to laugh?
Laughter truly is the best medicine. It’s incredibly good for the heart, kidneys, adrenals and the immune system. It’s an amazing stress reliever, and can even help you get your sexy on! The more we learn to laugh, the more easily we can shake off depression, heaviness and inertia in our bodies and minds.
Unfortunately, most of us feel we need a “good reason” to laugh or smile. So we wait for a joke or comical situation to arise that sends us into fits of giggles… but if you ask me, there may be too few of those around to ensure you get your healthy, daily dose of laughter. I say: why wait? If you really think about it, it’s ridiculous to hold back, especially because it makes us feel so great!
Feeling-self conscious about chuckling for no apparent reason? Well, take a deep breath, because it’s time to let that go.
Take a break and smile. Now that you have smiled, slowly build your stamina for a baby snortle, a giggle or maybe even a guffaw. Do you feel your laughter muscles beginning to twitch and respond? And now let it rip! Quietly or raucously – off you go!
