WEALTH AND LAUGHTER
WEALTH AND LAUGHTER
Laughter is an expression of joy as a result of sudden surprise, amusement or nervousness
Most men in pursuit of wealth ignore this vital ingredient of human health. Laughter, as a healthy sense of humor promotes good health, increases and speed up the production of immune cells in the human body system.
Most of the instrument in our immune system is sharpen to greater functionality by reason of laughter.
The power of laughter when properly harnessed help make human beings healthier and happier. As an intrinsic part of human lives, laughter calms down the brain, effect a relaxing mood leaving one less depressed and anxious.
Don’t be over zealous with wealth investments and transactions that you have no time left to laugh, become excited, cheer up oneself and not be moody. As you laugh, you get in to a relaxed state. It could be telling jokes, sharing an exciting experience with others.
Your creativity is likely to be enhanced and increased when you laugh, relax and in the right mind.
It is laughter that link up humor and mood together. Stress, worry and anxiety have less effect on those with a good and strong sense of humor.
Studies have shown that humans with a low sense of humor could be activated through laughter.
However, there is a proper dose for laughter. Frivolity, carelessness and moral looseness should not be mistaken for laughter as a healthy therapy. There’s need therefore for moderation, sobriety and a health level of seriousness.
It is a matter of possessing a sound and playful, peaceful state of mind without giving oneself over to permissiveness and suggestion of evil whatsoever.
So there’s this concept of choice and control. One can be jovial and yet firm. You got to cheer up and not be frowning, don’t be of a moody countenance.
Laughter makes for happiness and long life. Make friend with happy people.
Best wishes
