The Power of Laughter
By Lea Yekutiel
"Good humor is tonic for
the mind and body. It is the best antidote for anxiety
and depression. It is a business asset. It attracts
and keeps friends. It lightens human burdens. It is
the direct route to serenity and contentment."
-Grenville Kleiser
Laughter: The Grease That Keeps the Wheels of Our Life Running Smoothly.
Laughter has been called
"the best medicine" - and for good reason - a good dose
of deep, heartfelt laughter helps pull you through some
of the worst times in your life. Being able to laugh at
life just makes it easier, doesn't it?
Laughter is so good for
us, both physically and emotionally. Laughter
strengthens our immune system, improves our
cardiovascular health, tones and relaxes our muscles,
reduces depression and anxiety, boosts our productivity
and creativity, and does a whole lot more good to our
being.
Laughing is a great
healer and I want to share with you how much. Think of
Bob Hope and George Burns. They lived longer than most
by using their God-given talent for humor to anchor them
in their life. Laughter, a big key to our health, has a
way of making problems melt away. It lets us know just
how ridiculous we are. Comedians are so sought after by
people because innately we know the healing effect they
have on us.
Quite simply, laughing
makes us feel good.
So why not En-lighten up
a little?
"Blessed are they who can
laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be
amused."
-Unknown
Can you laugh at yourself and at things that have happened in your life?
A recent study found that 5-year old children laugh up to 400 times a day! In this case it's the kids who can teach us a thing or two! So, start counting how often you laugh!
Let's develop our own humor and laughter muscles... right now!
Are You Ready?
Here are some empowering questions to ask yourself on a daily basis:
- How many things can I notice today that are truly funny?
- Who can I make smile right now?
- What tense situation can I look back on and laugh about?
- Whom can I call on the phone that will laugh with me?
- How many people did I made laugh today?
Make sure you laugh often today and every day.
