Loving Yourself

Laughter is The Best Medicine

“The child in you like all children, loves to laugh, to be around
people who can laugh at themselves and life. Children instinctively
know that the more laughter we have in our lives, the better."
Wayne Dyer

When was the last time you laughed so hard it brought tears to your eyes? Laughter has been proven to be the best medicine. When we laugh it reduces our stress level, brightens our day and connects us to the child within.

My Aunt who is in her mid-eights always sees the funny side of a situation. She had many tragedies in her life and the ability to laugh made her a stronger person. Whenever I talk to her we are always laughing at ourselves or situations. What a special treat.

I love to hear and see a baby laugh. They don’t hold back and enjoy the moment. The sad part is as we get older we forget to laugh and see the funny side of things.

What could we do differently to bring laughter into our lives.? Following are some of the tools I use to enjoy a good laugh:

1. Not take myself so seriously.
2. Laugh at myself.
3. Share funny stories with others.
4. Call my Aunt and have a good laugh with her.
5. Share jokes with my grandson, Jeffrey.

I invite you to have a good laugh today and not take yourself so seriously.
