There’s Power In Looking Silly And Not Caring That You Do.
This week’s intention: Act Silly.
Truer words have never been spoken. Acting silly, being silly – very hard things to do if you are shy, self conscious or a little nervous to put yourself out there – BUT – if you do, the rewards can be great.
I find being around babies and children really seems reduce people’s inhibitions and you find those you think are more conservative making funny noises, dressing up, making faces, dancing around, just being silly and having fun to make the child laugh. It’s a great moment to watch.
Its hard not to take ourselves seriously these days and to find a moment for smiles, laughter and play can increase your endorphins which in turn relieves stress and helps alleviate depression and anxiety. Laughing is a great way to keep the doctor away!
This week as you set your intention, let it be one of lightness. Let the moments of joy and happiness whisk you away into the land of silly. Play. Sing. Dance. Giggle. Find silliness in the day with those you love. I promise, you will be rewarded.
