Most health experts and happy people say that nothing works faster or more dependably to bring the mind and body back into balance than a good laugh. Yes good laugh! It’s the act of laughing with all your heart. Thousands of the most successful people I know, do not let the day pass without spending time to laugh.
Laughter will not only bring you handful of benefits but as well as success!
Laughing makes you healthier and happier. You might think the happier part should come first, and sure, that helps, but laughter actually prepares the body for happiness.
“When you start laughing, your chemistry changes, your physiology changes, your chances to experience happiness are much greater,” says Madan Kataria, a physician from Mumbai, India, and the founder of and chief proselytizer for Laughter Yoga. Laughter Yoga is a movement that started in 1995 and has fostered some 5,000 Laughter Clubs worldwide. There are some 200 Laughter Clubs in the U.S. today. At Laughter Clubs, people get together, to…yep… laugh.
Studies have found that laughter increases circulation, stimulates the immune system, exercises the muscles, invigorates the brain, reduces stress hormones, and may even help prevent heart disease. Sounds fun, right? So what are you waiting for, go join a club!
Or at least watch this:
When it comes to healthy living, some people think it’s all or nothing.
You’re either training for a triathlon or you never get off the couch. You either methodically steam all of your vegetables or you live off of potato chips and ramen. And you’re either loaded with supplements and protein drinks, or else you haven’t been near a health pill since your Flintstones vitamins years.
What’s a person to do?
