Laughter Medicine

1 min read

“A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.” Proverbs 17:22 NIV

I believe laughter is a great medicine. We see it when working with couples sometimes it seems the session is spiraling out of control and next thing we know the husband or wife cracks a joke, they both laugh, Tracy and I nervously laugh, as we are all back on track! 

Our household isn’t perfect by ANY stretch but laughter is a staple ingredient Tracy and I made sure was a part of it from the get go. Even to this day we usually end up the day watching mindless AFV, YouTube memes, or Jimmy Fallon. 

Let each of us find what tickets us and do that. Sometimes is a group of friends that gets us loose, sometimes is watching a show, but whatever it is let us not underestimate the power of laughter and it’s healing powers. 

My name is Arturo and I am loved by God and in response to that I best serve others by adding VALUE to their lives. My goal is to enrich lives, relationships, and communities.
From an artistic standpoint I’m a visual communicator and via the use of photography I seek promote beauty, concepts, and messages. Spiritually speaking I've served as a chaplain at a addiction/recovery rehabilitation center, and before that as a youth pastor, missionary, and Young Life/Club Beyond staff for many years here in the USA and abroad.
On the mental health side I currently serve as a life coach, certified addiction recovery specialist, and marriage and family counselor.
