283 ~ Serious About Not Being Serious: Embracing Humour as a Life Skill

WEBVTT
00:00:00.300 --> 00:00:03.851
Hello Magical Human and welcome back to Madison Mindset, the podcast.
00:00:03.851 --> 00:00:20.370
In this episode we're going to be talking about getting a sense of humor Very important, so a sense of humor you may associate with, you know, laughing at jokes or creating your own jokes, or you're quite witty, quite funny, making other people laugh.
00:00:20.370 --> 00:00:28.423
It's also about laughing on the receiving end, so it's not necessarily about you know making a joke itself.
00:00:28.423 --> 00:00:33.777
It's also about receiving the joke and allowing yourself to laugh.
00:00:33.777 --> 00:00:41.612
Okay, a sense of humor can dramatically change the quality of your life Dramatically.
00:00:41.612 --> 00:00:44.829
Okay, I have people in my life who have a great sense of humor.
00:00:44.829 --> 00:00:46.256
I have people in my life who have a great sense of humor.
00:00:46.256 --> 00:00:48.584
I have people in my life who have no sense of humor.
00:00:48.584 --> 00:00:50.328
They embrace seriousness.
00:00:50.328 --> 00:00:51.049
Nothing is funny.
00:00:51.049 --> 00:01:02.447
You know, you should be able to find the fun in all of life situations, because if you don't, you're going to have a really miserable time because life can be really hard.
00:01:02.447 --> 00:01:15.067
And if you've got no ability to turn that into something fun, into something you can laugh at, then you're going to have a tough time because everything is going to be so much more serious than it needs to be.
00:01:15.709 --> 00:01:16.350
Life is life.
00:01:16.350 --> 00:01:18.236
Things come, things go.
00:01:18.236 --> 00:01:22.730
You get sick, you get well, you're healthy, you're unhealthy, you're alive, you're dead.
00:01:22.730 --> 00:01:31.585
These are completely normal things and something that really took me back in Buddhism, especially as they talk about death, you know, and in yoga we talk about death as well.
00:01:31.585 --> 00:01:43.746
But the amount of times I've had teachers, you know, make jokes about death, you know about dying and about hard situations, and at first I was like, oh, you can't say that, how could you?
00:01:43.746 --> 00:01:45.921
And then I really started to go hang on.
00:01:45.921 --> 00:01:51.819
That makes it so much better, you know, it's so much less scary, it's so much less intense, it's.
00:01:51.819 --> 00:01:55.890
You have a little bit of a laugh about it, you have a joke about it, you know.
00:01:55.890 --> 00:02:02.566
You have to find that because otherwise you're not going to be having a nice life experience.
00:02:02.566 --> 00:02:15.810
And even when other people are going through hell, say, if you're losing someone, right, it's much easier if you can be lighter and not so serious about the situation, because that makes it harder for the person dealing with it.
00:02:15.810 --> 00:02:19.266
So you need to develop a healthy sense of humor.
00:02:19.266 --> 00:02:21.010
You really do.
00:02:21.230 --> 00:02:23.745
I'm not saying to make fun of people when they're in the worst situation.
00:02:23.745 --> 00:02:25.348
I'm not saying that.
00:02:25.348 --> 00:02:29.983
I'm saying you need to lighten up a bit, because that's what's going to help you in this life.
00:02:29.983 --> 00:02:31.246
It's going to help you get through.
00:02:31.246 --> 00:02:35.806
It's going to help, you know, often my worst days are the days I laugh the most.
00:02:35.806 --> 00:02:48.448
You know, I've had a few bad things happen in one day and another thing happens and I'm like, oh my goodness, four things in a row and I just laugh and I'm just like this is hysterical, you know, like you know it's just, it's life.
00:02:49.090 --> 00:02:50.480
You have to be able to laugh about it.
00:02:50.480 --> 00:03:03.889
You know, like there are some amazing jokes about, especially about death, you know, and death is something that no one wants to talk about, everyone's scared of, no one wants to go through and everyone puts their head in the sand about it.
00:03:03.889 --> 00:03:10.362
And then suddenly you're confronted with it.
00:03:10.362 --> 00:03:12.186
What if you already had a good relationship with endings, with change?
00:03:12.186 --> 00:03:15.832
You know, it's okay, it's life.
00:03:15.832 --> 00:03:19.245
There is nothing wrong with death or illness.
00:03:19.245 --> 00:03:20.467
In fact, it's quite normal.
00:03:20.467 --> 00:03:24.043
There would be something wrong if you didn't go through those things.
00:03:24.043 --> 00:03:25.861
That's part of living on this earth.
00:03:25.861 --> 00:03:29.288
It makes you quite normal, very normal.
00:03:29.288 --> 00:03:30.110
It happens.
00:03:30.110 --> 00:03:32.441
So let's lighten up a little bit.
00:03:32.441 --> 00:03:40.028
Okay, if you cannot have a good quality sense of humor, not only will you experience harder times in life, but your body will suffer.
00:03:40.028 --> 00:03:46.603
There's a lot of tension that we build up from being so serious and from taking on all of life's battles, and it's not fair.
00:03:46.603 --> 00:03:47.825
This it's not fair that.
00:03:47.825 --> 00:03:50.561
Can you imagine the tension that builds up in your body?
00:03:50.561 --> 00:03:52.866
You know what laughter does for you.
00:03:52.866 --> 00:04:06.626
Ah, relaxing, you let things go right, you enjoy in the beautiful sensation of laughter and joy and how that feels when you're going through a hard time.
00:04:06.626 --> 00:04:07.467
It's medicine.
00:04:07.467 --> 00:04:16.048
It's so important and so many physical symptoms come from your seriousness and the stress about that.
00:04:16.048 --> 00:04:19.324
So why don't we relax and have a laugh?
00:04:19.324 --> 00:04:22.100
Because it might just be the thing that you need.
00:04:22.100 --> 00:04:23.987
Let's jump in.
00:04:40.797 --> 00:04:45.067
Hello, magical Human and welcome to Madison Mindset Podcast.
00:04:45.067 --> 00:04:47.901
My name is Madison.
00:04:47.901 --> 00:04:55.108
I'm a yoga teacher, a mindset and spirituality coach and a complete earth fairy.
00:04:55.108 --> 00:05:01.067
I see a world that is peaceful and easy to live in.
00:05:01.067 --> 00:05:16.189
I see a world that is peaceful and easy to live in, humans that are awakened and enlightened towards who they are and what life truly is and why we are here.
00:05:16.189 --> 00:05:17.692
I understand life can be really hard.
00:05:17.692 --> 00:05:18.776
I've had a huge journey with anxiety myself.
00:05:18.776 --> 00:05:25.478
I understand what it's like to feel overwhelmed, overworked, stressed and frustrated within this earth.
00:05:25.478 --> 00:06:04.637
It is this journey that led me to begin my own growth journey, and it's only through those struggles that I was able to birth this podcast, so that you can have the tools and techniques and knowledge to help you step forward and be a being of light, a magical earthly being who is grounded, supported, who takes on challenges with love and embraces the lessons that each day brings you.
00:06:04.637 --> 00:06:08.262
Are that being, I am here to walk you there.
00:06:08.262 --> 00:06:14.867
You will find many different kinds of episodes through this podcast.
00:06:14.867 --> 00:06:19.165
All are created in the moment and with love for you.
00:06:19.165 --> 00:06:23.786
Find the one you need for this moment and enjoy.
00:06:23.786 --> 00:06:26.999
Take a moment for yourself.
00:06:26.999 --> 00:06:30.007
Sit down with your journal and tune in.
00:06:30.007 --> 00:06:35.656
Welcome, let's begin.
00:06:35.656 --> 00:07:13.569
I love you.
00:07:19.692 --> 00:07:23.372
So, as I mentioned, seriousness is going to make your life much harder.
00:07:23.372 --> 00:07:29.062
You know, when a bird poops on your head, how would you react to that?
00:07:29.062 --> 00:07:31.067
Are you going to storm off and go, oh, it's not.
00:07:31.067 --> 00:07:33.060
Oh gross, not fair.
00:07:33.060 --> 00:07:36.815
And you're going to complain about it and whinge about it all day and cry about it?
00:07:36.815 --> 00:07:38.939
Do you think the bird meant to get you?
00:07:38.939 --> 00:07:41.103
No, it's life.
00:07:41.103 --> 00:07:41.946
It's life.
00:07:41.946 --> 00:07:42.987
The bird was doing a poo.
00:07:42.987 --> 00:07:44.357
The birds live in the trees.
00:07:44.357 --> 00:07:45.139
They live in the sky.
00:07:45.139 --> 00:07:48.435
You walk under a tree, there's a chance you're going to get pooped on.
00:07:48.435 --> 00:07:50.240
It's completely normal.
00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:53.636
You know there are two types of people in this world.
00:07:53.636 --> 00:08:00.117
One person gets pooped on and they cry about it and whinge and complain and make a horrible day for themselves.
00:08:00.117 --> 00:08:02.024
And the second person laughs.
00:08:02.024 --> 00:08:04.358
Guess who has the better day?
00:08:04.358 --> 00:08:06.841
The second person.
00:08:06.841 --> 00:08:10.848
Okay, you have to learn to lighten up.
00:08:11.394 --> 00:08:23.076
If things get too serious, not only will life be harder, but you'll be emotionally drained, you'll be closer to burnout, your body will be unwell, it will become dis-eased dis-ease, right.
00:08:23.076 --> 00:08:29.120
The relationships in your life will suffer because who wants to listen to someone whinge and be serious all the time?
00:08:29.120 --> 00:08:31.266
Who is your favorite person to hang out with?
00:08:31.266 --> 00:08:33.221
Is it someone who makes you laugh?
00:08:33.221 --> 00:08:37.255
Someone who gives you a good feeling, that has a good energy about them?
00:08:37.255 --> 00:08:38.458
Of course.
00:08:38.458 --> 00:08:39.802
Who would you rather hang out with?
00:08:39.802 --> 00:08:42.235
Someone who's always whinging and about them, of course.
00:08:42.235 --> 00:08:43.839
Who would you rather hang out with?
00:08:43.839 --> 00:08:49.009
Someone who's always whinging and complaining about life or someone who's in joy and having fun and just going along with life?
00:08:49.009 --> 00:08:52.200
We all know the answer Okay.
00:08:52.220 --> 00:08:59.201
There are a lot of illnesses in the body that can come from being so serious and having a lack of sense of humor.
00:08:59.201 --> 00:09:01.606
Seriously, a lot of them.
00:09:01.606 --> 00:09:04.523
A lot of mental diseases, a lot of physical diseases.
00:09:04.523 --> 00:09:10.778
Right, it's, having a sense of humor isn't just a personality trait, it's a remedy.
00:09:10.778 --> 00:09:16.086
It's a remedy to life and to life's problems.
00:09:16.086 --> 00:09:19.176
Right, things are really hard, like for me.
00:09:19.316 --> 00:09:21.361
For example, I'm a huge fan of a dad joke.
00:09:21.361 --> 00:09:22.966
I love dad jokes.
00:09:22.966 --> 00:09:28.625
I think they're hysterical and they, when I was younger, I used to, you know, roll my eyes and go that's so lame, what a bad joke.
00:09:28.625 --> 00:09:29.490
You know all this stuff.
00:09:29.490 --> 00:09:31.076
What are jokes there for?
00:09:31.076 --> 00:09:35.024
They're there to lighten life.
00:09:35.024 --> 00:09:37.249
You know who cares if it was an obvious joke?
00:09:37.249 --> 00:09:45.058
Who cares if it talks about poo or something gross?
00:09:45.058 --> 00:09:47.245
You know who cares whether it's a dad joke or a smart joke or whatever.
00:09:47.245 --> 00:09:47.525
I don't care.
00:09:47.525 --> 00:09:47.725
Who cares?
00:09:47.725 --> 00:09:51.538
Laugh, stop being so serious, stop being so offended.
00:09:51.538 --> 00:09:52.682
Just have fun.
00:09:52.682 --> 00:09:53.806
It's funny.
00:09:53.806 --> 00:09:54.467
Laugh at it.
00:09:54.467 --> 00:09:55.071
It's a good thing.
00:09:55.071 --> 00:10:01.927
Anyone who's open, telling you a joke, is trying to lighten the mood, is trying to make a moment of your day where you laugh.
00:10:01.927 --> 00:10:04.018
Laughter is so good for you.
00:10:04.057 --> 00:10:07.606
Some people go weeks, months, years without smiling, let alone laughing.
00:10:07.606 --> 00:10:12.773
When you smile, smile right now.
00:10:12.773 --> 00:10:13.554
I don't care where you are.
00:10:13.554 --> 00:10:17.123
Smile, do you feel how much better that feels?
00:10:17.123 --> 00:10:22.778
Do you understand what's going on in your brain when you smile?
00:10:22.778 --> 00:10:25.553
When you smile, endorphins are released in the brain.
00:10:25.553 --> 00:10:26.196
You know what they are.
00:10:26.196 --> 00:10:31.538
They're nature's painkillers Physically, mentally and emotionally.
00:10:31.538 --> 00:10:33.203
They're nature's painkillers.
00:10:33.203 --> 00:10:35.351
Why don't you give yourself some of that?
00:10:35.351 --> 00:10:37.538
That's what laughter is for.
00:10:37.538 --> 00:10:38.552
Is what smiling is for.
00:10:38.552 --> 00:10:39.575
It helps you deal with it.
00:10:40.116 --> 00:10:44.635
If you're being all serious and all grumpy and everything's you know, not fair, you're missing out.
00:10:44.635 --> 00:10:46.541
Life's gonna be much harder for you.
00:10:46.541 --> 00:10:48.352
And what do you get out of that seriousness?
00:10:48.352 --> 00:10:49.897
Nothing.
00:10:49.897 --> 00:10:59.234
Your relationships suffer, your work suffers, your finances suffer, your health everything suffers around you just because you're being serious.
00:10:59.234 --> 00:11:04.783
Lighten up, seriously lighten up.
00:11:04.783 --> 00:11:09.360
I used to think this was such like oh, you don't understand how hard my life is, so it doesn't matter.
00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:19.823
As I said, there are jokes about death, there are jokes about being sick, and while I'm not saying you should laugh at someone who's dying or laugh at someone who's sick, it's not laughing at the situation.
00:11:19.823 --> 00:11:25.898
It's lightening it up a little bit because it's normal and we're all going to have to deal with it.
00:11:25.898 --> 00:11:28.102
So why not lighten it up?
00:11:28.850 --> 00:11:37.065
If you were sick and maybe on your last day you're dying, do you want everyone around you being serious or would you like some laughter?
00:11:37.065 --> 00:11:46.750
Would you like some joy and some ease on your final moments, you know?
00:11:46.750 --> 00:11:55.916
Would you like everyone grieving you and being serious and sad about the fact that you're gone or would you like them to share some joy and some laughter about?
00:11:55.916 --> 00:11:56.236
You?
00:11:56.236 --> 00:11:58.039
Know your life and how beautiful it was.
00:11:58.039 --> 00:12:19.316
Just think about that and then reflect and live the same right If you ask anyone like, would you like everyone to be absolutely miserable by your death or would you like everyone to you know, mourn you but also laugh and have some beautiful, funny stories and you know, lovely moments to share with other people about your life?
00:12:19.316 --> 00:12:21.621
Which one do you prefer?
00:12:21.621 --> 00:12:29.071
Obviously, you'd rather people have some fun and not be so sad, to live their life and have a great time.
00:12:29.071 --> 00:12:32.799
So I'm going to read some of the health benefits of smiling and laughing.
00:12:32.799 --> 00:12:35.876
These are studied health benefits.
00:12:35.876 --> 00:12:44.894
I'm just going to read them out just so you get an idea of why you need to lighten up right Benefits of smiling strengthened immune system.
00:12:45.417 --> 00:12:46.360
Boosts mood.
00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:48.066
Smiling is contagious.
00:12:48.066 --> 00:12:50.551
Now, something that's interesting about smiling is contagious.
00:12:50.551 --> 00:12:53.014
When you smile, you boost your immune system and endorphins.
00:12:53.014 --> 00:12:53.134
Right.
00:12:53.134 --> 00:12:55.916
When you smile, you boost your immune system and endorphins, right.
00:12:55.916 --> 00:13:00.500
When someone sees you smile, they don't even have to smile themselves.
00:13:00.500 --> 00:13:05.325
They will also get an increase in their immune system and endorphins.
00:13:05.325 --> 00:13:06.547
How cool is that?
00:13:06.547 --> 00:13:21.884
You know, literally, when you smile and you make someone else smile and then someone else is looking at the smiling, and then someone else is looking at the smiling, it's literally one smile can change several people's day just from observing one person smiling.
00:13:21.884 --> 00:13:24.514
Sounds worth it to me.
00:13:24.514 --> 00:13:25.275
Pretty cool.
00:13:25.275 --> 00:13:26.058
We're very connected.
00:13:26.058 --> 00:13:29.107
Smiling releases endorphins.
00:13:29.428 --> 00:13:52.517
Smiling boosts immune function, improved confidence, heart health, you live a longer life, improves productivity, longevity, relieves anxiety, increased endurance, mental health benefits, improves cognitive function, increases success, reduces stress, reduces pain, improves relationships, enhances attractiveness through smiling.
00:13:52.517 --> 00:13:53.558
Oh, there you go.
00:13:53.558 --> 00:13:54.481
It's even a beauty thing.
00:13:54.481 --> 00:13:58.605
Increased positivity Seriously makes you go.
00:13:58.605 --> 00:13:59.187
It's even a beauty thing.
00:13:59.187 --> 00:14:05.548
Increased positivity Seriously makes you more creative and more efficient.
00:14:05.548 --> 00:14:11.591
Sounds like maybe we should smile.
00:14:11.591 --> 00:14:12.975
And laughter is just a bigger version of smiling, right?
00:14:12.975 --> 00:14:15.000
So all of that increased, all right.
00:14:15.019 --> 00:14:22.990
So I've got this really great quote that I saw it was online, I don't think it's a quote, it was more like someone's caption or something, but it kind of stuck with me.
00:14:22.990 --> 00:14:24.375
It was a year or so ago.
00:14:24.375 --> 00:14:27.846
I'm not sure where it came from, but it really stuck with me.
00:14:27.846 --> 00:14:32.677
We are born, shit happens, then you die.
00:14:32.677 --> 00:14:37.325
We are born, shit happens, then you die.
00:14:37.325 --> 00:14:39.614
Right, isn't that true?
00:14:39.614 --> 00:14:41.961
You're born, all this shit happens and then you die.
00:14:43.289 --> 00:14:46.558
Laugh, have fun, don't be so serious.
00:14:46.558 --> 00:14:47.721
That's the reality of our life.
00:14:47.721 --> 00:14:51.254
Seriousness is going to ruin it, you know.
00:14:51.254 --> 00:14:52.096
Just have fun.
00:14:52.096 --> 00:14:59.041
I've got four tips to help you embrace having a sense of humor right, especially if you struggle with this.
00:14:59.041 --> 00:15:03.697
Number one jokes are everything for your mood.
00:15:03.697 --> 00:15:06.524
Seriously, find a comedian you like.
00:15:06.524 --> 00:15:10.823
You know I really like Michael McIntyre and Carl Barron.
00:15:10.823 --> 00:15:12.288
I think they're hysterical.
00:15:12.288 --> 00:15:18.477
They make jokes about normal day-to-day life things, nothing serious, nothing that brings a mood down.
00:15:18.477 --> 00:15:25.217
It's all very lighthearted and hilarious and relatively clean as well, which is nice.
00:15:25.217 --> 00:15:26.421
So check them out.
00:15:26.421 --> 00:15:28.033
Or if you have your own favorites, that's great.
00:15:28.033 --> 00:15:34.018
Comedians, jokes, joke pages on the internet why don't you follow someone who has some worth to give you?
00:15:34.018 --> 00:15:36.719
You know, some jokes, dad jokes.
00:15:36.820 --> 00:15:37.702
Practice laughing.
00:15:37.702 --> 00:15:44.107
You know there's a thing called laughter yoga, and the first time I did it I thought it was the weirdest thing I've ever experienced.
00:15:44.107 --> 00:15:47.599
But I also noticed that the people who do it also the happiest people I've ever seen.
00:15:47.599 --> 00:15:49.892
You know, we're literally forcing laughs.
00:15:49.892 --> 00:15:55.163
You get into people's faces and you go like over and over again.
00:15:55.163 --> 00:16:06.977
If you're sitting there right now and you've got time and space, just sit there and go over and over again, keep doing it until you break out in laughter.
00:16:06.977 --> 00:16:10.129
You will, because it's weird, it's really weird.
00:16:10.129 --> 00:16:11.692
If you do it with other people, it's even better.
00:16:11.692 --> 00:16:15.018
You get in stitches laughing about how funny this is.
00:16:15.018 --> 00:16:16.360
Just ha ha ha, ha, ha ha ha.
00:16:16.360 --> 00:16:21.916
You know, it helps so much, it feels so good and people are so happy.
00:16:21.916 --> 00:16:23.278
People who laugh and smile.
00:16:23.278 --> 00:16:27.591
Not only do they look happy, but they feel good.
00:16:27.591 --> 00:16:28.913
Okay, so go for it.
00:16:28.913 --> 00:16:29.813
Embrace some jokes.
00:16:29.813 --> 00:16:30.615
Don't be so serious.
00:16:30.615 --> 00:16:32.837
If it was a lame joke, who cares?
00:16:32.837 --> 00:16:33.477
Laugh anyway.
00:16:33.477 --> 00:16:34.620
It's an opportunity, right?
00:16:35.640 --> 00:16:39.505
Number two practice dancing just randomly to music.
00:16:39.505 --> 00:16:42.836
Have some fun and practice not taking yourself so seriously.
00:16:42.836 --> 00:16:54.642
Do some weird moves, like I'll often do, like the classic ones, you know, like the sprinkler, or you know like the shopping trolley and all those kind of lame like moves that no one can make them look good.
00:16:54.642 --> 00:16:55.191
They all look.
00:16:55.191 --> 00:16:58.078
They look weird, no matter what you do, you know, and just laugh.
00:16:58.078 --> 00:17:01.716
Have fun, you know, and watch the type of music you listen to as well.
00:17:01.716 --> 00:17:05.031
If the artist is very serious oh poor me.
00:17:05.031 --> 00:17:09.843
You know life sucks, everything's horrible then you're going to feel the same way.
00:17:09.843 --> 00:17:13.318
So find artists that are uplifted and happy.
00:17:14.401 --> 00:17:17.815
Number three practice laughing at life's troubles.
00:17:17.815 --> 00:17:21.990
Again, I don't mean be insensitive and laugh in people's faces.
00:17:21.990 --> 00:17:29.772
I'm just suggesting that you lighten up a little bit and go oh, that was really annoying, someone's laughing up.
00:17:29.772 --> 00:17:32.058
You know life is like haha, deal with that.
00:17:32.058 --> 00:17:33.182
You know, like make it funny.
00:17:33.182 --> 00:17:34.391
Make it funny.
00:17:34.391 --> 00:17:35.273
Practice doing that.
00:17:35.273 --> 00:17:41.355
It makes it a lot easier, especially if you like kick your shin on something or laugh instead of scream and get angry.
00:17:42.679 --> 00:17:56.486
And number four I came up with an acronym to the word feel, just so that you can understand that we're not laughing at life's troubles and dismissing things.
00:17:56.486 --> 00:17:58.778
It's a healthy in the middle, okay.
00:17:58.778 --> 00:18:01.819
Going straight over to life sucks, everything's horrible.
00:18:01.819 --> 00:18:04.218
That's not necessarily healthy, okay.
00:18:04.218 --> 00:18:05.816
So feel.
00:18:05.816 --> 00:18:08.076
F is for feel.
00:18:08.076 --> 00:18:10.213
Feel it, you know it causes you pain.
00:18:10.213 --> 00:18:11.297
It causes you emotions.
00:18:11.297 --> 00:18:12.220
Feel it, it's okay.
00:18:12.220 --> 00:18:16.392
You know it causes you pain, it causes you emotions.
00:18:16.392 --> 00:18:16.813
Feel it, it's okay.
00:18:16.813 --> 00:18:17.634
And E eventually when you're ready.
00:18:17.634 --> 00:18:20.218
Don't take too long, but don't rush it.
00:18:20.218 --> 00:18:30.795
Eventually, e evolve, l, learn, and what's going to help you get to evolve and learn is laughter.
00:18:30.795 --> 00:18:39.814
Okay, feel it and eventually evolve and learn and move forward and grow.
00:18:39.814 --> 00:18:42.098
Okay, Laughter is going to help you do that.
00:18:42.459 --> 00:18:44.182
What most people do is they feel something.
00:18:44.182 --> 00:18:45.874
They feel bad about how they're feeling.
00:18:45.874 --> 00:18:48.141
They create more stories and they feel worse.
00:18:48.141 --> 00:18:51.923
And they feel worse and worse and worse and they sit in it, they dwell in it.
00:18:51.923 --> 00:18:54.683
It becomes a stagnant river with gunk and floaty bits in it, and they sit in it and they dwell in it.
00:18:54.683 --> 00:18:57.476
It becomes a stagnant river with gunk and floaty bits in it, and they sit in it and they sit in it.
00:18:57.476 --> 00:18:58.618
That's what they do.
00:18:58.618 --> 00:19:09.553
You're allowed to sit in your shit for a second, but then you've got to stand up and evolve and learn and move forward, and laughter will help.
00:19:09.553 --> 00:19:12.357
It will help really.
00:19:12.357 --> 00:19:15.923
Thank you so much for being here, magical Human.
00:19:15.923 --> 00:19:17.876
I hope you enjoyed this episode.
00:19:17.876 --> 00:19:19.202
I hope you got something out of it.
00:19:19.704 --> 00:19:27.491
So, whether you think you're someone who's quite funny and has a nice sense of humor, I encourage you to keep going, keep it healthy, keep it sacred, you know.
00:19:27.491 --> 00:19:39.272
But definitely it's not a bad thing to have some light and you know making people laugh If you're good at doing that good, you're doing good work in the world.
00:19:39.272 --> 00:19:44.028
You know, being a comedian or just being someone who can make people laugh is such a precious job in this world it really is.
00:19:44.028 --> 00:19:50.138
And if you're someone who's very serious smile, you need to.
00:19:50.138 --> 00:19:53.204
You've got to, otherwise you'll stay there.
00:19:53.204 --> 00:19:57.200
You need to, you've got to, otherwise you'll stay there.
00:19:57.701 --> 00:19:58.707
Life is not going to get any easier.
00:19:58.707 --> 00:20:01.950
Life is life.
00:20:01.950 --> 00:20:03.252
It's not going to be perfect and we all die in the end, right?
00:20:03.252 --> 00:20:04.717
So it's obviously not going to end the way you'd like it to.
00:20:04.717 --> 00:20:09.012
So why don't you just have some fun, lighten up, laugh, smile.
00:20:09.012 --> 00:20:12.039
Enjoy those opportunities to laugh and smile.
00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:13.041
Take advantage of it.
00:20:13.041 --> 00:20:17.972
Enjoy those opportunities to laugh and smile.
00:20:17.972 --> 00:20:18.454
Take advantage of it.
00:20:18.454 --> 00:20:20.722
And look, according to google, you even save money on your beauty routine, right?
00:20:20.722 --> 00:20:21.404
That's a good reason.
00:20:21.404 --> 00:20:23.170
Thank you so much for being here.
00:20:23.170 --> 00:20:25.990
I hope you enjoyed the episode and I'll catch you next time.
00:20:25.990 --> 00:20:27.770
I'm sorry you.
