[AffirmationstoDe-Stress] MORNING COFFEE

Why You Need to Laugh!   by Jane Powell   "Laugh – it feels good and it's good for you!"   Have you laughed yet today?   For most of us laughter doesn't come very often, yet the magic it performs on our well-being can't be denied. It helps you enjoy friends and family. It diffuses stressful situations and it allows you the opportunity to keep things in perspective.   In times of adversity, humor helps you to cope and survive. It helps you recognize absurdities in situations, and eases the tension.   Recognize what makes you laugh and put more of it in your life. Let your sense of humor see the fun in everyday experiences and open yourself to silly and outrageous thoughts.   Allow your laughter to flow. After all, laughter is the best medicine.     If you keep on thinking of all the ways in which Others cheated you, fought with you, Degraded you or angered you; Your heart will forever be full of hatred.   Learn to let go. And be happy.   Back on track   You're solidly on track, moving firmly toward your goals. Then, for one reason or another, you get distracted.   It happens. Along the path, occasionally you'll wander off in the wrong direction. It's OK. In fact, it can help you. You'll probably learn or experience something valuable. After all, something caused you to be distracted. And once you're off the main road, you might as well make the most of it.   Then, remind yourself of where you were going in the first place, and of how much you want to get there. The disappointment of getting distracted, gives you the opportunity to reflect on your original direction.   Every now and then, you'll wander from the path. Use these distractions as opportunities to learn and grow, then point yourself back in the direction of your goals, with renewed commitment and enthusiasm.   Ralph Marston   - Dear Readers, " Morning Coffee " is a labor of love and meant to be shared with others to spread encouragement and inspiration.
