Sitting just chilling and not really doing anything as a quarantined quaran-teen (HAHA) honestly the fondest memories I have and what I’ve been thinking about are all the laughs, giggles, teehees, and unintentional belly ab workouts LOL that I will GLADLY take.
And wait did you know there are actually so many benefits both physical, mental, health, every possible thing you can imagine. Just listen!!
Laughter is what gets us excited. (ok this wasn’t scientifically proven nor did I look it up but its just soo trueeee!!)
Laughter boosts the immune system. It decreases stress hormones and even can help strengthen antibodies in us.
LIKE WHAAA
Laughter increases the release of endorphins in our body (those feel-guudddd hormones).
ITS NICE TO FEEL GUUUUD
AND LIKE I SAID EARLIER:
Laughter BURNS calories. Watch us all get abs soon ;) But in all seriousness, it really does burn a lot of food we accidentally ate too much off because we’re using our stomach muscles!!
Laughter improves our mood, relieves stress, strengthens relationships, and does a lot more than what I’ve listed here. Isn’t that insane??
BASICALLY, laughter is the BEST MEDICINE. It’s something that can’t be given a price for, something we definitely take for granted, and an encounter to be valued. What a beautiful thing the Lord has given on this world that we definitely don’t take enough time to appreciate and take joy in!!
There isn’t really much more to be said. There’s just so many benefits, some which I just found out about, and truly nothing wrong with laughing. But, I haven’t said the most important aspect of laughter that keeps us continuing to laugh. I meannnn unless you’re just home scrolling through memes while still in bed LOL which is a MOODDDD, one common factor stands out above all.
We laugh the most and the heartiest in the company of others. With friends. With family. With brothers and sisters. With loved ones.
^^I tried so hard to find a pic showing the pure laughter while at the same time EXPOSING us HAHA LOL <3
It just naturally draws people together. Or it’s what binds people together. Memories, little chunks of time that many look back on re-laugh about, and cherish forever.
It always goes back to the community, people, being surrounded by others. And it’s true! It’s impossible to live without supporting one another and making each other laugh. That’s our dose of life, our purpose to live in community with one another and carry & lift each other up just like the way He carries our burdens.
It’s our true and genuine reaction that’s too hard to hide- our smile before even laughing gives it completely away haha amiright??? :))
So amidst this difficult season in life and in this world to be upset, frustrated, and confused about all that’s going around us, let’s laugh with our lovely families, catch up with friends (WHILE REMEMBERING SOCIAL DISTANCING SO JUST GIVE EM A CALL OR TEXT), and spend some time even by yourself (though it won’t be as hearty LOL <3) to laugh, get some abs, reduce the stress hormones, and have a good time all for His glory!
For we live by faith, not by sight.
Signing off with Faith Hope Love & Joy, Grace
Job 8:21
He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouts of joy.
And just wanted to add one more because there’s nothing better than spreading love, laughter, and hope around!!
Proverbs 17:22
A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit saps a person’s strength.
