Why is Laughter Important?
As we grow older, it can be difficult to find a reason to smile, let alone have a huge belly laugh. Come on, when was the last time you enjoyed yourself so much that you joyfully and fully laughed, without a care about who was watching? Getting older can be painful – arthritis, stiff body, sore and achy. It can be migraines, stress, or a side effect from an ailment or medication. And it’s not just older people, inflammation, pain and stress can effect young people too. Laughter is good medicine and can help with positive outcomes with mental and physical health concerns.
A more positive mental state can be the door for a world of possibilities, and it all starts with laughter. Laughter is a proven fighter of depression and anxiety. It triggers endorphins in the body, lightening the spirit and inspiring the soul. By relieving your stress hormones, laughter physically relaxes the body and allows you to feel recharged. It is also a way to draw yourself closer to others, which can help you to feel less alone and combat depression in an entirely different way. Laughter can even serve as a daily workout—when you just can’t make it to the gym. By laughing for only ten to fifteen minutes a day, you can burn as many as forty calories! Beyond this, and on a more serious note, laughter can even increase your longevity, especially for those who are battling disease.
How Can CBD Help?
It can be difficult to find the laughter when your mental state is just not in it. Life can be painful. Maybe you’ve tried so many things and are feeling hopeless and wondering if this is just what life is going to be like for you. Unacceptable. Don’t settle. You need a partner–something that will work with laughter to help heal you from the inside out.
This is where CBD comes in. CBD has been shown in multiple scientific studies to have antidepressant properties. This way, you can get the help you need to laugh more and to laugh genuinely. CBD has a plethora of serious benefits, but it is more than that. CBD, or cannabidiol, has been scientifically proven to reduce anxiety and contribute to healing with regards to mental health. This means that people struggling to recover from negative mental states can see real change for the better. By helping with physical healing, CBD also helps the mental state so you can find the road back to happy, back to laughter.
Starting with a CBD sublingual oil or maybe some CBD gummies, you can learn to smile again and you will see how your life can turn around. CBD can lessen the burden that negativity can leave behind and open the door for you to find fun again. Please read our other articles concerning how to find the right dose for you.
