It is time for all of us to lighten up and take everything a little less seriously. Your crisis might not seem half as bad if you can shift your attitude and find the humour in the things that frustrate you the most.
Appreciate small things.
In case you missed these:
Day 1: Eat slowly and mindfully

Our lives are filled with negative news in the press, work crisis, family crisis, financial stresses and the issues we have about our health and bodies.
It is important to your health that you can find an outlet to create humour, smiles and happiness in your life!
You can search the internet for the benefits of laughing and apart from plain old feeling good and spreading positivity, the themes that keep coming up as a result of laughter and smiling are:
- Boosts the immune system
- Improves blood flow, suppresses stress hormones and gives you a burst of energy
- Said to affect blood sugar levels
- Helps you cope with difficult situations
- Promotes positive happy feelings
- Makes you more attractive to other people
I am sure you can think of many more benefits. Whether scientific or not there is no denying that when you laugh you feel lighter.
I mean, you try laugh and be angry at the same time – not possible!

How to complete today’s task
Some ideas on what you can do:
- Watch a funny movie or funny clips from Youtube.

- Play childish games with your partner, other adults, your kids.
- Pay a fun harmless practical joke on someone
- Laugh at yourself
- Stop taking other people so personally and seriously
Life can be a wild, stressful rollercoaster but remember that you are in control – and laughing regularly will help you dominate your daily situation. Take everything in our stride, be more tolerant and LAUGH MORE!
