Laughter is the Best Medicine


What do preschoolers do hundreds of times a day, but adults typically only do fifteen times a day? Laugh.


Children laugh easily and use their body actions to change their state of mind — this playfulness helps express their emotions and develops better learning and cognitive skills.


Benefits of laughter for children and adults:

Boosts self confidence
Lessens anxiety and stress
Enhances lung capacity and increases circulation
Strengthens immune system
Creates mind/body balance
Massages internal organs
Builds social bonds
Encourages release of endorphins


Rekindle your childlike playfulness and release you own healing potential —Laugh!
