Laughter is Liberating!
When we laugh for joy we can transcend so much of what keeps us down, feeling low and under par. Laughter liberates our creative resources; it lifts our spirits; it encourages freedom of expression; it keeps a check on the potentially over-serious ego; it lends perspective to pain; it allows us to play; it can also help us to rise above and leave behind personal limitations and suffering.
Humour takes us up towards our Higher Self.
Robert Holden, Laughter Is The Best Medicine
