Publisher Description: Fun and laughter are essential to becoming a fully actualized person. This book is full of stories of persons who have gone through great difficulties and yet have made the decision to laugh and have fun every day. Just as love is a decision (and much more than just an emotion), deciding to live life with fun and laughter can also be a volitional decision. Cognitively I can decide to enjoy life. The stories and research in this book can be a catalyst to help you have more fun and laughter. This is not a shallow comedy club type of laughter, but a wholehearted enjoyment constantly welling up within you. People who are in recovery talk about their problems and face their problems. People not in recovery act out their problems. They often let their emotions control them, rather than embracing their emotions and facing them and even laughing about them. Scientific studies in the Twenty-First Century repeatedly confirm the ancient proverb that laughter is one of the best, holistic medicines we can ever take. |
