Have a Good Laugh!

One of my wonderful pleasures is Saturday Night Live. I LOVE SNL. I watch missed episodes online when I can. I have bought DVDs of compilations of comedians from SNL. I LOVE SNL. What parody shows such as SNL do for me is bring into the world of laughter. Every now and then, we have to remind ourselves to just laugh. This really does help our help. It's been proven medically. Find some time to laugh, laugh, laugh. Life will wear you down if you don't allow yourself to have fun and laugh. Stress and sadness is not going to help anything. It will only hurt you in the long run.

Blessings,

Here is some information from health professionals with http://www.helpguide.org/ :

• Laughter relaxes the whole body. A good, hearty laugh relieves physical tension and stress, leaving your muscles relaxed for up to 45 minutes after.
• Laughter boosts the immune system. Laughter decreases stress hormones and increases immune cells and infection-fighting antibodies, thus improving your resistance to disease.
• Laughter triggers the release of endorphins, the body’s natural feel-good chemicals. Endorphins promote an overall sense of well-being and can even temporarily relieve pain.
• Laughter protects the heart. Laughter improves the function of blood vessels and increases blood flow, which can help protect you against a heart attack and other cardiovascular problems.
