TGIF Nuggets: 5 Evidences of The Connection Between Your Mind and Body

Thank God its Friday! As you go ahead to enjoy your weekend keep this
in mind; a merry heart is good medicine for the body but a broken
spirit dries up the bones.

Scientists now agree that there is indeed a serious connection between
the mind and the body:

1) People who are depressed have quadruple risks of heart attacks.

2) Laughter stimulates the immune system by increasing the activity of
germ fighting T-cells.

3) Laughter can help relieve chronic pain since it triggers the
release of pain-killing endorphins.

4)Laughter helps to slow down the production of stress hormones
(adrenaline and cortisol).

5)Increased risk of asthma, hypertension and cancer has been linked to
being depressed.

So keep your heart cheerful this weekend and beyond, it would do you a
lot of good!
