Go Ahead & Laugh


Go Ahead & Laugh!

Today I had one of those great "belly" laughs. Really it was over something that most would not even consider that funny. Out of no where a thought came to mind, and I couldn't contain it... and I had a great kackle! One of those laughs that bends you over to your knees and makes you cry and almost pee your pants... oh, how great! :)

Did you know there are great benefits to laughter some being:
  • It strengthen's your immune system (through the release of certain endorphins)

  • Provides an emotional release from negative feelings such as anger, guilt & stress

  • Prevents Heart Disease (when we laugh we lower our blood pressure)

  • Relaxes Your Muscles

How often do you laugh?

It is estimated that a child laughs approximately four hundred times a day while an adult engages in some humor only fifteen times a day.

So laughter is a great therapy...


Share with me what makes you laugh.
