What's cracking, Hope Nation? It's your friendly neighbor, Kevin Hines, and here's your psych hub, brain health tip of the week. Strengthen your funny bone, laugh as often as you can. Laughter is stress relief. Laughter enhances your intake of oxygen-rich air, stimulates your heart, lungs, and muscles, and increases the endorphins that are released by your brain. Stress relief from laughter is no laughing matter, it's no joke. Studies show that a good laugh can help relieve stress and tension for up to forty-five minutes, so take time to find the humor in your day today. Remember to find time to laugh.
