Wellness isn’t just about office visits and treatments—it’s about you as a whole. True self-care doesn’t always require a professional. Sometimes it looks like deep belly laughs with your girlfriend. Laughter therapy is a universal non-pharmacologic approach to reduce stress and anxiety. It is also non-invasive, requires no appointment or intervention and is FREE! Laughter physiologically lessens the pro-stress factors (cortisol) and increase the mood-elevating anti-stress factors (serotonin) to reduce anxiety and depression. In this ongoing stressful time of life, it is important to spend time with those that make you laugh and create an environment that facilitates laughter. Balance starts with how you live, not just how you treat. #WholeSelfWellness #aNuYouAwaits #FunctionalMedicine #LiveWellFeelWell #HolisticHealing
