I spent time with my Dad today. My Dad was excited to tell me one of his favorite jokes. It was fun to spend time together and laugh.
Today's LAFFirmation: I Love Finding Reasons to Laugh
Breathe in and sigh as you exhale.
Breathe in and smile as you exhale.
Breathe in and and laugh gently as you exhale.
In Laughter Yoga, we are choosing to laugh as an exercise. It's not comedy and we don't rely on humor. But the more we practice Laughter Yoga, the more we strengthen our ability to find humor in almost any situation.
------------------------------
What's a LAFFirmation?
We are choosing to affirm a thought that feels good, breathe, and laugh.
This powerful combination helps us find relief, feel better, and allows more fun things to flow into our lives.
We are choosing to laugh as an exercise for the wellbeing of the mind, body, and spirit.
Laughter Yoga is not comedy. It's an exercises and practice.
The body can't distinguish between spontaneous "real" laughter or simulated laughter. Even if we are simulating (or faking) the laughter, we are still getting all of the incredible benefits of laughter. How cool is that!
Be gentle with yourself.
Remember, choosing to laugh is a practice, and one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself.
