If you feel depressed, fatigued, have a stress illness or problem sleeping, or your appetite is increased, you might have a Seasonal Affective Disorder.

Seasonal Depression or Winter Blues normally occur during cold fall/winter season because of a lack of vitamin D foods in your diet, and low levels of serotonin. Recipes to boost your serotonin level.

As we all know, laughter is the best medicine as a stress reducer.  Laughter can also boost your immune system, and lower your blood pressure(especially in women).  It eases pain (you can completely forget about pain or ache while laughing), and and can help reduce your risk of heart attack and stroke.

Oh, and did I mention that laughter therapy moves our lymph and increases oxygenation, which helps with detox cleansing of our body?

But the most important is that laughter helps us to raise serotonin level, which is very important for fighting our seasonal blues.

So let us laugh !!!!

“Women have a passion for mathematics. They divide their age in half, double the price of their clothes, and always add at least five years to the age of their best friend.” — Marcel Achard

“Man has will, but woman has her way.”– Wendell Holmes

“Women now have choices. They can be married, not married, have a job, not have a job, be married with children, unmarried with children. Men have the same choice we’ve always had: work or prison.” Tim Allen

“I could sooner reconcile all Europe than two women.” — Louis XIY

“When women are depressed they either eat or go shopping. Men invade another country.”– Elayne Boosler

“Girls have an unfair advantage over men: if they can’t get what they want by being smart, they can get it by being dumb.” — Yul Brinner.

“From 30 feet away she looked like a lot of class. From 10 feet away she looked like something made up to be seen from 30 feet away.” — Raymond Chandler

“Any woman can fool a man if she wants to and if he’s in love with her.”– Agatha Christie

Laughter makes us feel better and happier, and it is exactly what we need during cold winter days when seasonal depression might occur.

Let us be SAD smart by using laughter therapy to heal ourselves from winter blues.

Breathe, smile and be happy.
