Coping During the Coronavirus- Strategy #6

Laughter

Laughter may not be the medicine, but finding humor is so important when things feel bleak and scary. Laughter brings us thoroughly into the present moment, it relieves tension in our bodies, it elevates our mood, and may even help with pain management and immune responses. Try to laugh every day! Watch an old episode of a TV show, scroll the ever-expanding collection of cat videos, be silly with your kids. Find that moment of silliness and embrace it. What made you laugh today?
