10/6 Health Thought of the Day (Hearty Laughter) Siegel, 1988

[Guest guest]

10/6

 

 

 

There are sound, scientific reasons why we call robust, unrestrained

laughter " hearty. " It produces complete, relaxed action of the diaphragm, it

exercises the lungs, it increases the blood's oxygen level, and it gently

tones the entire cardiovascular system! In addition, the laughter response

increases the production of endorphins-the body's natural painkillers and

pleasure opiates. We must learn to give laughter a high priority.
