Feeling stressed? Have a laugh!

Members,

Laughter can be just what the doctor ordered. Did you know that laughter has both short term and long term positive health effects? In the short term laughter can stimulate your organs, activate and relieve the stress response, soothe tension and stomachaches and in the long term it can improve your immune system, relieve pain and also increase personal satisfaction.

Find out more by reading the article below:
 
Mayo Clinic. Stress relief from laughter? Yes, no joke. Available online <http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/stress-relief/SR00034> February 9, 2010
 
And please share with us, how you can bring laughter in your life!

Luciana, Bilingual Health Educator
