What do you call a 3 legged donkey? A wonky!! What do you call a 3 legged donkey with one eye? A winky wonky donkey!
When was the last time you had a really good laugh? I'm not talking about a little chuckle or a smile. I am talking about a really good laugh, the sort that has tears rolling down your cheeks, making you laugh out loud and feeling really happy.
We need to laugh. It is a form of emotional release and good for our health. Patch Adams (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patch_Adams) was very aware of the health benefits of laughter.
What's old, grey and still hiding in the cupboard? A hide and seek champion!
In March 2005, a study in Baltimore demonstrated the change in blood flow when we laugh. Using film clips the researchers were able to reduce blood flow by inducing mental stress when shown war clips, and increase blood flow and reducing mental stress when showing comedy clips.
Science has proved that mental stress reduces our immunity and this in turn makes us more at risk of becoming ill from infections, from flu to athletes foot.
Why do bees have sticky hair? Because they have honey combs!
We can create our own opportunities for a good laugh. Here are just a few:
- watch a comedy film or program
- find funny video clips on youtube
- remember the last time you had a good laugh and take yourself back to that event
- find jokes that make you laugh either on the internet or ask friends for their favourite jokes
- find a fun activity to do
- attend a comedy show
Where do you find a dog with no legs? Where you left it!
Laugh and the world laughs with you, so enjoy helping someone else laugh.
warmest wishes
