The Power of Laughter

  • Categories Uncategorized
  • Date October 25, 2013

Yvonne 003Written by Delaware Certified Parent Educator, Certified Adlerian Family Counselor and FSMA Board Member, Yvonne Nass.

Laughter is such a wonderful, contagious gift. No one laughs quite like a child. Their honest, beautiful belly laughter brings joy to our hearts and a smile to our face. When is the last time you laughed together over a silly mistake instead of getting angry? It is those small moments of sharing the same “joke” that brings us closer. Laughter should never be at the expense of another. Keep a joke and riddle book at your dining table and laugh together often.

(Science supports the healing power of laughter. It’s no joke! Read more.)

Laughter has the power to heal and bring people closer.
