There are so many positive effect of laughing, both physical and emotional, that you just can’t ignore!

Laughter relaxes the whole body and relieves physical tension and stress. It boosts the immune system by decreasing stress hormones and increasing immune cells. Laughter triggers the release of endorphins, the body’s natural feel-good chemicals. And last but not least protects you from the heart diseases, because it improves the function of blood vessels and increases blood flow.

When laughing you can’t feel angry or sad. Humor helps you shift perspective. And you are so much more fun to be with.

Watch how your laughing gets contagious and how it spreads all over the world.

I remember I was always afraid of the snakes, even from my youngest days. In Slovenia snakes are quite rare and you are not very likely to meet one. But I somehow manage to see snakes where ever I go. Last time we were at the Kolpa river bathing and enjoying ourselves and suddenly there was a snake in front of me. I panicked and we immediately left the place. We then talked to a friend who lives near the river and he saw a snake once in his entire life. My husband said: “You must be attracting snakes, you are seeing them everywhere.” And at the time I didn’t think about it until someone said: ”It’s a good sign!” I got curious and searched the net and I only found really good and positive descriptions.

Snakes mean wisdom, healing, intuition, awaking of creative forces, ability to handle change without resistance, new opportunities for change, material vitality, intellect emotional control and increased sensitivity to the environment. Really great, isn’t? And now wherever I go I am looking for snakes eager to see one.

The only thing that changed in this story is my perspective, my point of view and my attitude.

When we have our own kids, we want them to raise into responsible, accountable human beings, but very often parents limit the children’ power to express themselves and to take charge. We tell them what to do and how to do it. Some parents might argue that we are trying to protect them from the dangers of the world, but by doing so we are taking away their control and self-esteem. Parents need to learn to give the kids responsibility for their lives.

Here are few ways how you can do it from early years on.

When the kids are really small they depend on you and your care. But as soon as they can do something by their own, let them do it. Encourage their trying and efforts. Just like we are enthusiastic about walking, speaking and riding a bike, teach them other smaller tasks like dressing up, eating, putting away toys etc. with the same enthusiasm.

Did you ever heard of Laughter (or Laughing) Yoga?

It is a combination of laughing and yoga breathing and it is based on the assumption that the body cannot differentiate between fake and real laughter, and that their physiological and psychological benefits are thus identical. People get together just to laugh, which is stimulated by eye staring and playfulness.

Ever noticed that the children are naturals for this? They make funny faces, quirky noises and peculiar moves and I’m sure your child would love to laugh along, if you make those.

So, when you have a few minutes, make your child ROFWL (roll on floor with laughter).

Remember how children could brag endlessly in front of their friends about what they have. It can be really annoying, but can you make a fun of it?

Get them list all the things they really have.

Help them see beyond material things (although they will probably start with them). Put on a list all their friends, things in their neighborhood and the environment (like fresh air, water, woods …). Don’t forget to mention their rights (like freedom, schooling…) and their feelings (towards themselves, other people and from others to them).

You can even make a competition, who can list more things.

Or go even further and find the pictures of everything listed to post somewhere as a reminder.

The game will show your kids that they already have lots of things that they can enjoy and be grateful for. They will also help them appreciate the NOW and to live in the moment.

If you were an animal, which one would you choose?

Would you be brave as a lion? Hard-working as bees or ants? Deceptive as a fox?

Now think about these questions:

• Why would you select this animal?
• Which characteristics would you like to have?
• What would you do with your power (or brains)?
• What would be your message to the people?
• Would you choose to help someone special with the quality you possess?

I would really love to hear your answers. Please post your comments below.

Are your friends away for the summer? Do you miss them?

Why don’t you write them some letters?

Describe your days, what are you doing, how are you spending your holidays…

And don’t forget to mention how you miss him (or her) and how happy you would be to spend some of the time together.

You can also include a poem, quote or your drawing.

Imagine you could go on your holidays wherever you want. For as long as you want. And you can afford whatever luxury you want.

Where would you go? 

Who would you take with you? 

What would you do there?

• Imagine every detail.
• Describe every bit of the scenery.
• Picture yourself enjoying your best holidays ever.
• Hear the sounds of the nature and animals around you. 
• Smell the air and scentes that surrounds you.
• Feel the excitement.

You can even draw a picture or write a letter to your friends describing your magical holidays.

The summer should be fun for everyone. Look around and see if it is not. There are lots of kids who are too shy, or pushed aside. Wouldn’t it be great to meet a new friend?

Look around your neighbourhood and invite someone new to play with you.

It doesn’t have to be perfect stranger, it could be someone from you school you never talked or played with before.

Or maybe a younger brother or sister of your friend, that you ignored so far. Think how great it felt when someone older played with you.

Invite your new friend to your house to have a lemonade or to enjoy the pool. Ask him (or her) to join your group of friends and to participate in your games. Listen to his story.

Remember it’s about being positive and paying it forward. You never know what jewel you might discover.

Children will not remember you for the material things you provided but for the feeling that you cherished them.

The idea of helping others and giving is old as a world or at least since we, the human race exists. But ever since the book “Pay It Forward” by Catherine Ryan Hide, followed by the movie, back in early 2000, the real-life reaction and social movement begun. The individuals, schools and media come out with different resources and programs to promote the idea, that one small act of kindness by one individual can make huge impact on other people’s lives and the world we live in.
