Laughter is a great healer.
Need proof?
Watch this WbMD video at http://www.webmd.com/video/laughter-heals. This referred medical information site says “Laughing heartily 100 times a day gives the same cardio results as working out for 20 minutes!”
Sounds great to me. Forget the gym and turn on the funnies. (Just kidding)
In times of great stress, the last things you may think you are capable of is laughter. However, it may be the one thing that helps you put the problem in a healthier perspective and you feel that pressure relief! Let’s take a look at the top ten signs that indicate you may need some humor:
10. You start acting like your parents by forgetting where you left your car keys.
9. You finally get to work in the morning and can’t remember if you turned off the burners on your stove.
8. You can’t recall the last time you did something for more than 30 minutes to just relax. Relax? What’s that?
7. You burned your journal but you still make every meeting on time.
6. You’ve become a chronic e-mail checker. Nope, don’t check it now…Aaargh!
5. You no longer talk to people on the phone. Texting is just less touchy-feely stuff.
4. What telephone etiquette? Want do you want!
3. Husband/wife? Who’s that?
2. You are thinking of buying a privacy screen for your laptop so you can keep on working no matter where you are.
1.You talk at the rate of an auctioneer.
If any of these signs sound familiar to you get a funny show and watch it or search the internet for joke sites and force yourself to spend time, real time reading and laughing. Hey folks, this is nothing new this quote is from the Bible, “A merry heart doeth good like medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.” [Proverbs 17:22]
Laugh it’ll do ya good!
