"Life must be lived as play." ~ Plato
~ Lynn's Laughter Blip for February ~
By Lynn Shaw, Laugh Therapist
The Midwest has experienced a tough winter with enough snow and ice to create a
lasting memory. Though we know it is winter, there is some surprise element when
we hear, "You're getting three more inches of snow!" The last thing
most of us want to do is frolic with glee and play in the fresh fallen wintry sparkles of
white. No, we usually huddle down under the quilt, stock up on our favorite beverage,
continue our hibernation, and groan about living in this climate.
Enter the spirit of laughter!
Try this: Visualize yourself laughing and knowing that your spirit is soaring with every
laughter breath. Just the image of seeing yourself laughing can create a simulated
effect of energy! Try again. Maybe, just maybe if you keep visualizing your spirit
soaring with laughter, you'll believe that spring is coming.
In the spirit of healthy heart month: Hee Hee Hee Ha Ha Ha Ho Ho Ho. . . .
