Do you believe in giggling? Do you believe in hehe-ing? Do you believe in haha-ing? And do you believe that it can heal you?! I preach it, I scream it, I yell it - and so does Dean Lin, cohost of the Definitely Delusional podcast.
I mandate that laughter saved me and I wouldn't be where I am today - as recovered, healed, happy, and back to life I am today, if it hadn't been for my ability to giggle while my life getting railed with a cheese grater.
Dean is a comedic genius who has battled - and fucking won - his own monstrous pile of trauma. When I say monstrous pile, I mean rehab 3 separate times. And how did Dean get through it as gracefully ass he did to be excelling at life today? Laughing.
Sometimes the emotions we feel about something are so intense that if we don't laugh we'll cry, I choose to laugh, Dean chooses to laugh.
Win most, lose some

How laughter can be a powerful form of medicine for emotional and mental healing.
Personal anecdotes of finding joy and humor amidst trauma recovery.
