Humor vs. Stress in the Workplace

By magicnorm

Like Godzilla vs Megadon, humor battles stress and its related evil byproducts.

How serious is stress? Expert s say that stress is a factor in over 70% of illness. Stress can be involved in high blood pressure, anxiety and ulcers. Not fun stuff. But laughter and humor arrive to save the day and can combat stress as it starts.

We need to be aware of when we are under stress. We need to react to it with a deep breath and a calming reminder to ourselves that we can get through this. Finally a refreshing 5 or 10 minute comedy break can help us get back into a positive mood and help us to move forward to tackle that Goliath of a problem that is facing us. A healthy dose of humor will help us release the tension and allow us to move forward with clarity and a positive attitude.

We know that sooner later some sort of stress will come into our lives. Be prepared for that next difficult situation and have a humor button on your computer. This is a place in your bookmarks that takes to you to  several comedy sites that you know have funny stuff.

You may also wish to have a folder in your e-mail that contains funny photos and videos that friends have sent. This file can bring relief when needed and help you brighten up your spirits and your day,. This positive attitude can help us push on and find solutions

Humor can alter our mood without any harmful side effects, unless you get a pain in your ribs from laughing.


Crazy Daze

My schedule is thankfully full and it has kept me cruising like crazy for past two weeks. The High School Lock-in graduation parties have keep me running at full speed and on little sleep.

Last night I entertained at the Dakota Fitness Center at the Mystic Lake Casino. This is my 4th year with this particular school and I had a blast. The students were so engaged and laughing like crazy at the entertainment. I especially enjoy doing a few mind reading type magic tricks as the reaction can be quit fascinating. it is fun to see the high school students jaws drop at the amazing magic illusions. They know it is a trick, but they have not a clue and that elicits a strong reaction.

The Dakota Fitness Center is a great place for this type of event. There is a huge basketball court and racket ball courts. the inflatable company was able to set up several huge games in the gym and the students had fun bouncing in the huge games.

I love to make people laugh and I look forward to bringing laughter to your event. I tailor the presentation to the age group.
