There’s enough seriousness and drama in life to make every day kind of awful. But who wants to live like that? Give yourself a healthier, happier perspective on life, and get with the joy program – put some laughter in every day.

Did you know that the average four-year-old laughs over 400 times a day, but the average adult laughs just 15 times per day? That’s kind of pathetic.

• Go to a comedy club or rent a funny new (or favorite) movie and allow yourself to relax.
• Call up a friend who always puts you in stitches.
• Have a hula hoop contest.
• Have everyone share a joke each night at dinner.

Laughing not only enhances your mood, but those giggles can add up and burn calories. Try to find something (or more than 15 things) to chuckle about each and every day.

(psssst – It’s Friday the 13th! Have a little fun with that today.)
