Laugh Often

“I love People who make me laugh. Honestly, I think it’s the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It’s probably the most important thing in a person” ~Audrey Hepburn

As our busy schedules get underway for the fall and activities are in full swing it is easy to become overwhelmed and feel a little down. You may not feel the stress just yet, or you may have felt it full force! Perhaps you are starting to be forced out of your comfort zone and that thought has you absolutely terrified! Whatever situation you may be in currently, it is important to remember to smile, relax, and laugh.

It takes more energy to frown then it does to smile, so don’t do more work then you have to! Let the smile lines and laugh lines form! They look much better then frown lines anyway!

Laughter is an important part of life, and there are many benefits to it! We may not be able to force ourselves to laugh, but it is important to surround ourselves with those that make us laugh and smile. It is even more important to be able to laugh at ourselves and to be comfortable enough in our own skin to laugh and smile at our mistakes, goof ups, and good times. Enjoy your life with yourself and with others through the communication of laughter.

Laughter is a natural phenomenon! So why wouldn’t we laugh? Not only that, but there are tons of medical benefits to laughing, smiling, being happy, and having a good time.
