In this episode, through a couple of personal stories and observations, I share my views about how hugs and laughter can make our lives, and our relationships, more meaningful. I also talk about the health benefits of laughter, and the value in taking some time to pay attention when we give or receive a warm embrace with someone we care about. Although a light-hearted topic, I invite you to tune in and consider how hugs and laughter play a role in your life, and whether you may just want to pay a little more attention to how they show up!
