The Best Medicine (8)

Would you agree with me when i said "Laughter it the best Medicine?"

     Not only is it the best, its free! It takes a group, or just you and yourself. When reading the article "Laughter is the best medicine", it talked about how laughing, or even smiling can reduce stress and increase happiness and help in relationships and is good for your health.

     Laughter relaxes the body and boosts the immune system which help fight diseases. Laughter also causes endorphins to be released which is a chemical that makes you feel good. It gives you a sense of well being and can take away pain for a period of time.

It helps you turn that frown,

 Upside down.

Your don't want to be sad and stressed your whole life.


Ever been really stressed and someone makes you laugh and that stress magically goes away? Thats because laughter helps you to relax and see something from a different perspective. It allows you to see something more realistically which makes you see that there really is nothing to stress about. In relationships, when things get tight, try adding some humor or more laughter to the relationship. This causes you to be able to let go of defenses and be more spontaneous. it also helps you let go of what you are helping back and just let you be able to have a real conversation with the person. Don't try to hold those emotions in, let them come out because you will regret it if you don't.

If you think that sometimes you can be too serious, smile. It will help you think of the good things that have happened in life and all the reasons you have to smile. Of course, there is a time and place for everything, but who doesn't love a good smile? It can brighten up the mood and make you feel more relaxed and at peace.

It takes you to a whole new world.

It brings a sense of joy and playfulness that nothing else in the world can. It could help you get through the day. When your down, try to smile. You'll never know what may help until you try.

As Segal and Smith said in the article "As laughter, humor, and play become an integrated part of your life, your creativity will flourish and new discoveries for playing with friends, coworkers, acquaintances, and loved ones will occur to you daily. Humor takes you to a higher place where you can view the world from a more relaxed, positive, creative, joyful, and balanced perspective."
