This dismal, gray, saggy time of year sucks the laughter out of many. Add the political maelstrom the U.S. is currently experiencing, and the ability to laugh really heads to hell in a hand basket. If that isn’t chapping your ass, then something else probably  is–a loved one diagnosed with cancer, your boss is an old bat (or bastard), etc, etc. If we allow it, life will drain us of our joy juice. Please don’t let that happen. Find some way to laugh. Even for a minute, if you can, or at least give it a shot.

When life is too frightening, too bewildering, the one thing we can always bank on is that laughter will make us feel better at least temporarily. It is like an IV of glee and glitter for your soul. Laughter is free. Snicker at some Three Stooges on Youtube, hang out with your bestie whose sense of humor is superb, listen to a laugh track…..whatever it takes! Can’t think of anything that could garner a guffaw right now? What used to make you laugh? How can you access that in the current moment?

I didn’t name my business Laughing Soul because I couldn’t create anything better. I named it thusly because I believe strongly in the healing power of laughter, and part of my purpose on this planet is to help people resolve whatever stands in the way of their joy. Please contact me at annie@laughingsoul.org, or at 317-440-8783 if I can assist you into entering the light again.

By the way, I wrote the word “thusly” into the above paragraph because it makes me giggle.
