Laughter is the best medicine

There is nothing better than a good laugh, not only does it leave you feeling good but there are numerous health benefits. Did you know one doctor found that 20 seconds of laughter is the same caloric workout as three minutes on a rowing machine?

Laughing gives us an internal workout, stimulates circulation and can help to reduce levels of stress and anxiety. If you are feeling tense it can help to relieve the tension we feel in our neck and shoulder area. It can also be useful when we need to reset and put things into perspective as it helps to clear the mind.

What makes you laugh? Maybe you want to catch up with an old friend and retell your favourite stories, attend a comedy show or watch a funny movie.

Laughter truly is the best medicine!
