Laughing

 


  How do you feel when you get fun and share a good laugh together with your family or friends?  When was the last time you had a really good laugh? Did you know that laughing can improve your health? It is actually true, even laughter is strong medicine. Most people love to hear or watch comedy films. Nothing works faster or more dependably to bring your mind and body back into balance than a good laugh. 

  As children, we used to laugh hundreds of times a day, but as adults, life tends to be more serious and laughter more infrequent. With so much power to heal and renew, the ability to laugh easily and frequently is enhancing your relationships and supporting both physical and emotional health. As you can see, the best medicine. Priceless medicine is fun, free, and easy to use. So let's take a deep closer to why laughter is the best medicine. 

  Strengthen the immune system. When we have a good giggle, we increase our antibodies, which help our body fight infection and disease. Experts confirm that laughing improves our overall quality of life and helps to cure illness. Other research has linked laughter with the boost in immunity to an increased number of natural killer cells that help to attack disease. 

  Reducing stress. Laughing can increase endorphin which can reduce stress. In today's society stress seems to be everywhere, affecting almost everyone. Adult life brings a number of responsibilities, which doesn't mean that we shouldn't unwind and have a good laugh from time to time. In fact, that's what we need. Laughing can lower the levels of cortisol in our bloodstream. Less cortisol means less stress and more endorphin means less stress. Simple.

  It can make us more sociable. People are very happy to share something funny because it gives them an opportunity to laugh again and feel the humour. Laughter can also help us when it comes to our personal relationships, not only with people we already know but with strangers too. Studies confirm that it's 30 times easier to laugh when we have company and get together with friends. Laughter is quite guaranteed. 

  It is very recommended to add laughter to your day. Try to watch something funny, share a joke, hang out with friends, or have a dance party to boost up your laughter. In addition to offering benefits to your physical health, laughter benefits your mental and emotional. Who doesn't want free medicines and easy to use? Thank you for your time and have a nice day 😀.

About Phubbing

    In the Digital Era, smartphones have become the number one priority in society. When it comes to our smartphones, nothing else in our lives gets as much attention. A single notification can branch to half days only checking the status or short videos on social media. If we lose it, the stress starts to build up rapidly. Getting by without a smartphone really is not possible anymore, and from that other areas of our lives are bound to be affected.   Phubbing describes the act of "phone-snubbing". It is a term that most people might not be familiar with, but the action is certainly one we all recognise. If we are going outside let's say, how often have we been physically in the presence of someone, but they're emotionally "not there" because they are absorbed in their smartphone? Quite a lot, isn't it?   Smartphones and text messaging help partners display love and affection to each other when they are physically apart. However, what happens when smart...

    Have you ever dreamed to able moving objects around with your mind, like in a film? The power of telekinesis has captured the imagination of scientists, psychics, and fiction writers for centuries unproven by science.   So what is the definition of telekinesis? Telekinesis or psychokinesis refers to the alleged ability to move objects with the power of the mind or willpower, without physical interaction.   Telekinesis is from the Greek words, tele means "distant" and kinesis means "movement". If we combine together, it refers to the apparent ability to move physical objects using only the mind and without any physical interaction.   The idea of telekinesis has been in the imagination of fiction writers for ages, allowing the characters to demonstrate telekinetic abilities to move objects, restrain opponents, and levitate for dramatic effect.   However, many have claimed to have telekinetic abilities and believe that telekinesis is possible, but no one h...
