Laughter as a therapy

Laugh as a therapy?

Read the magazine, READER's DIGEST and you will find a chapter called Laughter is the best Medicine. Are they true. Well check this out
Laughter's benefits on your health are no joke. Yes the they cannot cure all ailments but certainly data collected suggested how much laugh can do.

BENEFITS as suggested.

  1. A good laugh obviously indicates how good we feel at that moment. Data shows it actually induces physical changes.
  2. Stimulate your organs. Laughter increases oxygen-rich air intake, stimulates your cardio and lung, and definitely increases the endorphins that are released by your brain. A hormone which induces a lot of positive effect on our body.
  3. Activate your stress response. A laugh fires up and then cools down your stress response and increases your heart rate and blood pressure. The result? A good, relaxed feeling.
  4. Soothe tension and tummy aches. Laughter may ease up digestion and stimulate circulation and that helps reduce the physical symptoms of stress.


Long-term BENEFITSLaughter may:

  • Improve your immune system. Negative thoughts manifest into chemical reactions that can impact your body by bringing more stress into your system and decreasing your immunity. In contrast, positive thoughts actually release neuropeptides that help fight stress and potentially more serious illnesses. In fact, in one study, people with cancer who watched a humorous video showed less stress and an increase in a particular cell activity that's beneficial in fighting diseases such as HIV and cancer.
  • Relieve pain. Research increasingly shows that laughter may ease pain by causing the body to produce its own natural painkillers.
  • Increase personal satisfaction. Laughter can also make difficult situations a little bit easier. One study of nurses who work in emergency rooms found that nurses who use humor in dealing with their patients and co-workers experience greater job satisfaction and feelings of personal accomplishment than do those who remain dour during their shifts.

Well do you still think Laughter is the best medicine ?


Go ahead and give it a try. Turn the corners of your mouth up into a smile and then give a laugh, even if it feels a little forced. Once you've had your hearty chuckle, take stock of how you're feeling. Are your muscles a little less tense? Do you feel more relaxed or buoyant? That's the natural wonder of laughing at work.

ANTI AGING

I just found this extract from a website talking about anti aging. Is it true that we can actually stop aging process. May be they should could it delay aging product. Read it :

Anti aging skin care
Anti aging skin care is not for the faint-hearted.

There are literally thousands of anti aging creams to choose from with new must-have magic ingredients appearing weekly in the beauty press. Anti aging is big business and millions of dollars are spent every year on the search for the ultimate anti aging cream.

The best anti aging skin care doesn't come cheap - so how do you choose where to put your money?

This part of the site helps you decide what products you need to keep your skin looking as young as possible - without blinding you with science. The aim is to take you through the types of anti aging skin care product available, what the ingredients are and what they claim to do in simple, non-scientific language.

And if you want to make sure you get updated articles and features on anti aging skin care as they're written - enter your email address in the box at the top of the page to get new content delivered straight to your in-box.

Finally if you're considering more radical anti aging treatments - take a look at the non-surgical facelifts site to find out about the real cost of botox, or get the low-down on laser skin resurfacing, dermabrasion and dermal fillers.

OLD HOUSE @ OLD TOWN


Living in the city is quiet hectic sometimes with all the air and noise polution. Flash flood in a very unexpected days and stuck in the traffic jam are very tiring to my mind. So I decided to take a break. Staying in the hotel ... no way same as the city with the swimming pool as exception. So I went to stay in my father in law old house in Batu Pahat. The house is horriblly old but well built for the last 50 years. Surrounded by the palm oil platation I could feel the nature more ... the night was very chilling but shoothing not like the artificial aircondition. The night is so peaceful you could hear all the night creatures creating music of the nature. I felt so fresh wake up in the morning. So sad I cannot stay here long to again going back to the city to make up some more bucks to keep up with the very distressing expensive life.

Looks old but actually have electricity and decent outside the house toliet with fresh water supply.

MY HOBBY


How to spend your extra time and money? Well let's start a hobby. Some people will spend a hell lot of their time and money to fulfill their hobby. I cannot afford both so I start collecting Hot Wheels miniature car, a hobby which is much cheaper compare to my previous liking to modified car for performance.
It all started with a reluctant spending on a weird design Hot Wheels car for my first son. I thought what a pieces of crap toy. At first I bought them because no matter how hard my little three years old boy play with them, it still intact in comparison to his other plastic toy. Sometimes its suprised on how much my boy spending his time just looking and spinning the small plastic tyre. So I bought more of for him and believe it or not now I have more than 100 miniature models. 60 percent from which comes from HOTWHEELs and the rest from the cheaper REALTOY. Well its still cheap hobby. I prefer to collect miniature which is based on the real models. Unfortunately most of derived from the so called " American muscle car " like chevy, dodge etc, some from Italian and german but less so from the japanese and korean made. The pictures showed the latest of my collection mainly the new Ferrari and Porsche series.
