Faking Laughter for "Laughing Yoga"
My husband sent me an article about Laughing Yoga. You fake laughing for a period of time. Since your brain can't tell the difference between the real thing and a sincere fake it will go right ahead and release all the endorphins, making you feel good. It also has great healing properties for the body.
All that said, I discovered something today. The brain can't tell the difference from a fake laugh and a real laugh. Neither can my 2 yr old. Made her bust up laughing right along with me. That made me really laugh, so my infant joined-in. The boys came and began laughing too. It left us all feeling pretty good.....and it was all started from a good fake.

it takes a good actor to trick his/her own brain ;-) guess this won't be the method for me :-) I somewhat have to try fake crying for a change...
