Researchers are finding more and more evidence pointing to the many benefits of optimism and positive thinking.

Power Of Positive Thinking

In this video, we'll explore the powerful combination of mindfulness and compassion. Mindfulness involves being present and fully engaged in the present moment, while compassion involves the capacity to be kind and empathetic towards ourselves and others. By combining these two practices, we can cultivate a deeper sense of connection with ourselves and the world around us.

Mindful Practice Breathing Anchor For Your Wandering Mind

Laughter as a Lifeline: Why Choosing to Laugh can change your Wellbeing.
Have you ever considered that ways that Laughter can have a direct link to your Wellbeing?
Think about it, have you ever noticed how quickly and easily laughter can lift your spirits? I love a good laugh, especially since I’ve learnt that laughter can be used as a wellbeing practice one that you intentionally choose to do, and that humour and comedy aren’t actually needed.
I mean don’t get me wrong I love watching comedy shows, they’ re great fun great especially when you go with a group of friends. But me, personally, I’m not a comedian – I can never remember the punchlines, so if I had to rely on creating humour to laugh, I wouldn’t laugh very often.
Growing up, I was often surrounded by hearty laughter—my mum has one of the best laughs I know. So, growing up with that laughter I was learning the comfort and resilience that a good laugh could bring.  I just didn’t realise how important it would be at the time.
Laughter was an unexpected lifeline – during my battle with Cancer.
Back in 2010, I faced one of the most challenging periods of my life. I was diagnosed with Small Cell Cervical Cancer, which is a rare and aggressive form, and the odds were stacked against me. 
It was during this time that I noticed that I was relying more, and more on laughter to lift my spirits.  Because let’s face it, laughter is much more fun than crying.  And if you can still laugh, surely it can’t be that bad, right?
Laughter helped me to keep going to put one foot in front of the other at a difficult time.  I mean it wasn’t like I have a choice I had to keep moving forward no matter how I felt.
Most of my laughter came from the way my world had been turned upside down and inside out very quickly I was living in a new norm, that was weirder than anything I’ve experienced before or since.
All these years later my family and I still laugh at a silly joke we shared one snowy day in December, one about going through chemotherapy treatment for goodness sake, but at the time we were in stiches which is why we can still chuckle about it today.
I didn’t plan on using laughter to help me through.  I wasn’t fully aware of its benefits back then.  But in that moment, I knew that laughter made things a little less bleak and that was good enough for me. Had I known about Initiated Laughter for wellbeing or Laughter Yoga back then I can assure you I’d have spent a lot more of my time laughing.
While I may not have used Initiated laughter in my battle with Cancer, I did use it as a practice following the loss of my dad.  Which is another reason why I’m so certain that Initiated Laughter (Laughter Yoga) can be helpful when times get tough.  And I mean really tough.
I’ve already told you that I feel that laughter was better than crying for me.  It was my personal way of coping.  As a wellbeing practitioner I know that that is not too healthy but I’m learning.  
I know that it is good to feel all of your emotions and not to bottle them up, but with crying at times I can be a bottler.  And when I lost my dad, that was what I did.  I wanted to be strong for my mum and to make sure that all the right arrangements were made correctly.  So, I tended to keep crying to myself, for times when I was on my own.  Which was why I was so surprised and grateful to discover the practice of laughter meditation because this allowed me to release my emotions I had bottled up in a safe and healthy way.  And enabled me to do this socially with others, that  was mind-blowing to me . And had I not experienced the benefits myself I would  have felt strange suggesting that people turn to Initiated Laughter (Laughter Yoga) at the most challenging of times in their lives….
For more insights into how Initiated Laughter (Laughter Yoga) can support your wellbeing and that of others, explore more on my website, Mrs MacLaughter.co.uk or join one of my sessions to experience the joy of laughter firsthand.
