Habits of a Happy Brain

Your Caveman Brain is Stressing You Out – Look out! A car! Fear briefly triggers cortisol which stimulates our body to divert all resources to ensure we move out of the way of the passing car. You survive and then cortisol levels in our body drop back down. What if cortisol was pumping all the time? Good? NO!!! Unhealthy! Think: long term suppression of your immune system, elevated blood pressure and decreased brain function! Stress is killing us. Literally. Work = stress. Politics = stress. Kids = stress. Money = stress and long term stress = death! Ack! Laughter can help! Let’s laugh more and reap the benefits! Anthony Poponi of Humore.us (pronounced humorous) will guide us through the inner workings of your brain and then share a few exercises and tricks to bring more laughter into your life!
