Laughing for the Health of It

Everyone is welcome to attend a free hour-long session of laughing for no reason with Bev Bender and others on Wednesday, Sept. 11, at 1:30 p.m. in Optum Health Care Center Conference Room.

Participants will leave with smiles on their faces and a song in their hearts. Best of all, it’s fun, free and non-fattening.

Studies show that laughter can help combat stress and depression, and even boost a selfesteem.

Bev Bender is a certified laugh leader who helps people improve their lives through laughter.
