Laughter neutralizes situations, and a neutral situation is a safe space where deep meaningful relationships are made and strengthened. Laughing at oneself shows vulnerability, honesty and humility. It tells your loved ones that you know you are not perfect. Laughing, instead of getting upset or defensive, can form a bond of trust with the people in your life.Sign up to Patreon to get access to bonus ad-free podcasts, exclusive downloads, live Q&As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf.For the blog & show notes: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-healing-power-of-laughing-at-yourselfOFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:-Athletic Greens: All you have to do is visit athleticgreens.com/leaf to take ownership over your health and pick up the ultimate daily nutritional insurance!-Thrive Causemetics: Right now, you can get 15% off your first order when you visit thrivecausemetics.com/DRLEAF.EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:2:52 Why laughing at yourself is so important4:30 The power of laughing at our mistakes7:54 How laughter neutralizes tense situations12:10 It is okay to be vulnerable!13:00 How laughing at ourselves can improve our relationships18:30 It is okay to make mistakes!ADDITIONAL RESOURCES:-Get my new book Cleaning up Your Mental Mess here: https://www.cleaningupyourmentalmess.com-Get a free Cleaning up Your Mental Mess workbook when you subscribe to my weekly email at drleaf.com!-Sign up to join my free text program and receive mental health care tips.
