In this episode Dona discussed: Joy and happiness What brings a smile to our face and heart Laughter as a stress reliever Key takeaways Joy is an emotion that comes from the nonverbal, physical place in the body, and happiness is a state of being that includes both feelings and thoughts. Even if there isn't a physical smile, joy can be felt on the inside. You can always find something to put a smile on your face and heart despite not being in the most joyful or happy place. “Laughter stimulates various organs and increases oxygen levels. It activates and relieves stress response and suits tension. It also improves the immune system and is a natural painkiller. It is a coping technique that allows us to connect with others, which can significantly boost our mood.” - Article directly on Mayo Clinic website - “Stress relief from laughter, It’s no joke”: https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/stress-management/in-depth/stress-relief/art-20044456?fbclid=IwAR0HDvjGoyFtjz_GfrWU6Ir-H9etyXQvrOjsN6hopzb1hMMSFK4bI4DlmCA "It is important to accept your emotions and allow your body to express and move and then process your feelings and thoughts. However, it's also important to be in and allow and accept joy at the same time. It's an emotion, and like others provides motivation, creativity, and passion. ” - Dona Joy Airey Connect with Dona Joy Airey: Website: https://www.facebook.com/djairey Email: dona@transformingwithin.com Phone: 502-420-9911 LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/donajairey To submit questions: Join the Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/makingsenseofemotions/ Email her with "Podcast Question" in the subject line.
