THE POWER OF LAUGHTERnn”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."n--Grenville Kleiser

It's 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 can help pull you through some of the worst times in your life. Being able to laugh at it just Make it easier, doesn't it?

Laughter is so good for us, both physically and emotionally. It 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. 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 is a big key to our health. Laughter 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?
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 do you laugh!

Let's develop our own humor and laughter muscles... right now!
