Let Laughter Be the Only Serious Thing In Your Life!

Let Laughter Be The Only Serious Thing In Your Life!

Ever wonder why all the religious leaders throughout history were depicted with such serious looks on their faces? Even artists renditions of Jesus and other masters show almost sad looks on their faces, as if seriousness is equated with a highly evolved person.

It has to be the opposite. And if you find a Spiritual Leader who cant get down rolling on the floor laughing, RUN! Seriousness is a contagious disease!

Laughing is one of the best ways to clear ones mind of negative energy and tap into the wellspring of spiritual richness available to each one of us daily.

It enhances left and right hemispheres of the brain, invites creativity into our lives and has physical effects that make your eyes twinkle and puts a warm glow on your face.

If you have a good belly laugh before eating a meal your digestive system functions at it's optimum and food even tastes better.

When you are having a particularly stressful day and are in a hurried state of mind a little laughter can break up the tenseness and help you to relax instantly.

Laughter is one of the greatest joys and you can do it even now, in this moment for a splash of energy and enjoyment!

*The technique:

* You can do this alone or with someone, either way it makes no difference, sitting with back straight close your eyes and remember this is going to be laughter spring up from within you, not something from outside you as a stimulus for 'making' you laugh.

* Start laughing! It may feel a bit awkward at first but that's OK, just keep on laughing even if you have to fake it at first, no breaks in the timing, continue to laugh as hard and loudly as possible.

*Allow your body to move and do whatever it chooses to do, go ahead and lose yourself in your own silliness, your own Har Har har! Hehehe, Hohoho, the point is to just keep laughing.

*Continue to laugh for at least 30 minutes, and when you stop, stand up if you are not already, and with eyes closed continue to allow the body to simply free flow, dance and move to the rhythm of your own energy. Continue this stage for another 5-10 minutes.

* Finally, lie down flat on your back, hands at your sides palms up and just see where the energy feels strongest in your body. Feel how relaxed almost floating your renewed energy is and if something comes up for you, accept it, love it silently and just breathe, feel your breath coming in and moving out.

Again there is a wonderful formal meditation on this technique that I will be linking you to on the blog soon so stay tuned if you are interested in the full version.

* let me also add that once you have done the full meditation or as suggested above, you can do 'quickies' of this technique at any time you start to feel a seriousness coming over you. Just take a minute and laugh! It's OK to fake it to get you started, sometimes laughing at our own seriousness can really be funny.

Thankyou and Namaste!
