I remember a funny experience with Mayo Clinic back around 2014. I received a call from the clinic’s librarian who had seen several cartoons we had created which included Mayo Clinic.
The very nice librarian asked me if I could she could buy the two cartoons to put up in “The Lucy Library” at Mayo. The library’s founder, a Dr. Lucy, one of the early Mayo Clinic’s doctors back in the ‘50s or ‘60s was a big collector of cartoons, particularly cartoons that mentioned Mayo Clinic. I assured her I would donate them to their good cause and did so.
Today, I was reading several articles about laughter, humor, and its effect on the immune system, which has always been of interest to me as an adult. Humor and faith are two of my coping mechanism, especially as we all make our way into a new world, in hopes surviving what challenges and/or obstacles await us.
I found myself in a “loop of articles”, and got a chance to learn new information that I did not know. A little of it I knew, but not even close to what new research has found.
Laughter isn’t just a quick pick-me-up, though. It’s also good for you over the long term. Laughter may:
Mayo reports on their website that laughter and humor improves your immune system. Negative thoughts manifest into chemical reactions that can affect your body by bringing more stress into your system and decreasing your immunity. By contrast, positive thoughts can actually release neuropeptides that help fight stress and potentially more-serious illnesses.
Relieve pain. Laughter may ease pain by causing the body to produce its own natural painkillers.
Increase personal satisfaction. Laughter can also make it easier to cope with difficult situations. It also helps you connect with other people.
Improve your mood. Many people experience depression, sometimes due to chronic illnesses. Laughter can help lessen your depression and anxiety and may make you feel happier.
According to Mayo’s research, these are short and long-term effects of laughter.
I’ve also noticed that for the past 1.5 years, in my shops that usually sell T-shirts, mugs, etc., all relatively inexpensive items, now only purchase postcards and occasionally buttons or greeting cards, but mostly postcards.
I’m fine with that. I didn’t get into this business for the money; though trying to make a good income was on the radar, I never had the ambition to make enough to fly funny looking rockets into space.
So we’ve lowered the cost of our postcards for a limited time to 50 cents each including free personalization. If you purchase 2 or more, they don’t have to be the same cartoon card. Order a bunch of different ones thinking of the type humor each friend or family member has. They won’t forget it.
It can be shipped straight to you or to the person(s) you wish to send. It is easy to type the message on your keyboard. We have fonts that look like real cursive writing.
My point is, everyone deserves to have a working immune system. And if you can find natural methods to boost it to thrive, all the better. And what better way to send a gift for 50c. Or 100 of them for $50. Or 500 of them for only $250 Coincidentally, we will be 25 years old in March, 2022.
I founded Londons Times Cartoons & Gifts in 1997. It became Google #1 ranked in 2005 where it has remained since that time. You can visit my Zazzle Giftshop and take advantage of the postcard sale today.
Nothing feels better than giving the gift of health and laughter…for under $1.
