Steemit Engagement Challenge S5-W1 | Laughter is The Best Medicine

Hello Friends!

I so much love this week's contest topic, I couldn't resist it because happiness is free! And the topic is laughter. Can you imagine this contest will teach us the important benefits of inculcating laughter in our daily lives?

My close associates and people around me can attest that I love smiling and laughing, I mean it makes me have a cheerful countenance, feel good, and look younger. No wonder the wise proverbs "a joyful heart is a good Medicine, but a crushed spirit saps one's strength". Laughter indeed is the Best Medicine in the world.

One of the best gifts we can give anyone out there is a Smile 😊 yes just a smile, it has the power to change the mood and atmosphere of the surroundings to a happy one. Laughter makes me feel good and in turn, people around me will also feel the positive vibes.

I've learned to view people from different perspectives, I try to see the good in them and I also try to understand them, and this makes me happy!

Life happens it does not always come the way we want or planned, but a good sense of humor will help us to have a positive view in difficult times. For example, early this year Arm robbers stole My Husband's car, he was robbed just in front of our gate while he waited for the gate to be opened for him, I was sad though, I mean a car that is worth millions of Naira and the economy is hard but I didn't allow that to get into me, I still maintain my positive view of life. As the saying goes "life goes on" what I'm I even saying? Sometimes just laughed out loud when faced with difficulty, it does a world of good! It softens your nerves. What I'm saying is, a good sense of humor lightens our burden and helps us to focus and think of a better solution to our problems.

Are you stressed, pained, or in conflict? All you need is the powerful antidote of laughter, yes it works faster than any other medicine you could ever think of. Laughing bring back your body and mind into balance.

The ability to Laugh frequently is the best way to overcome several problems, so please don't be overly serious.

Besides, laughter supports us both physically and emotionally, it enhances our relationships with others. A good hearty laugh daily relieves us from tension and stress. It helps to relax our muscles and increases our immune cells while decreasing the stress hormones in our body.
Most importantly it fights the infection-fighting antibodies and gives us resistance power against some diseases. Tell me what's preventing you from laughing frequently, please it's free and It'll do you more good and no harm.

moreover, laughing releases endorphins into our body endorphins are pain relievers, so laugh more and reduce pain, thereby enhancing your mode.

Oh la la I love this one laughing lowers blood pressure, it's a simple medicine right? and it has no side effects, it only has a positive effect on our well-being, so let's have our daily dose of laughing to control her blood pressure.

Lastly laughing is a good exercise for our cardio. if you're not very active throughout the day try and laugh many times you will burn calories and remain healthy when you laugh you inhale oxygen and thus stimulates your heart.

What Makes me laugh so much that I had to hold my Stomach or Wipe my tears:

• Having Fun discussions with my family and friends
• Doing Some sporty activities with Friends
• Listening to / watching Funny Jokes video
