Have a Good Laugh


We have long heard that laughter is the best medicine, science is now backing up that claim. Research shows that there is a cortisol reaction that causes an increase in production of endorphins when we are smiling and laughing. Laughter causes other beneficial physical changes such as improved circulation, stimulation of the nervous system, heightened immune system, and making the heart stronger.

Grab a funny book, movie or call a silly friend and share a chuckle. What tickles your funny bone? I know most of us have felt so crummy for so long, it's probably been a while since you have seen a smile on your face. Your going to have to bring out the big guns in that case & make it a regular item on your routine.

Did you know that adults laugh 15 times per day, but children laugh 400 times per day. Do you often wish you could feel like you did when you were a child? I know I do, maybe this is why we were so much happier. Find something funny to laugh at today.

Wishing you a happy tomorrow,
Amy


Quote of the Day

"Never let go of hope. One day you will see that it all has finally come together. What you have always wished for has finally come to be. You will look back and laugh at what has passed and you will ask yourself... 'How did I get through all of that?"
