Having Fun is Healthy for You!

Having fun relaxes the body. It decreases the amount of stress hormones floating around, like cortisol.  It releases endorphins, the happy hormones.  Having fun, laughing, enjoying yourself is very beneficial to your health, physical and mental.

We definitely need balance in our life.  We need to work and contribute, but sometimes we get too serious and stuck in a rut.  That's when we need to go have some fun.  Even if it's only for 30 minutes or so. Even if it's singing in the car or rolling down a hill.  Watch a funny movie and eat popcorn. Get in to a tickling game with your kids. Go out to lunch.  Do something, just do something fun today.

Action

Simple- have fun!
