[Radiant Living] Laugh Yourself Healthy

[Emerge Healing]

Remember that old saying "Laughter is the best medicine?" Well recent scientific studies are actually confirming that as truth.

Dr. Norman Cousins and the College of William and Mary have both reported on the benefits of "mirthful laughter".

Here are just a few benefits:

-Heightened and balanced brain wave activity
-Stimulation to your muscle tone, respiration, and the cardiovascular system
-Enhancement of your immune system
-Reduction in the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis
-Overall relaxation and a reduction of stress
-Boosts your endocrine system and balances your hormones
-Increases interpersonal responsiveness, alertness, and memory
-Greater communication between your brain and immune system
-Increases ventilation in your lungs and aids in clearing mucus plugs
-Raises your blood oxygen levels
-Provides a light workout for your body

and on and on and on...

Did you also know that it is physiologically impossible for your body to be in a contracted, negative state when you are laughing? Just try it. Clench your teeth, make fists and contract everything. Then try to laugh. Pretty impossible, huh?

Spending 1-2 minutes a day laughing is an effective way to expand your energy and improve your overall health. In fact, there is a whole school of meditation called Laughing Meditation where you get together with a group of folks and laugh yourselves silly. What an amazing way to connect to your essence!

So, here's a little treat for you...a laughing meditation track for you to laugh along with everday. Just 2 minutes a day and you'll start feeling better immediately!
