Adventures in living a healthy, juicy life
by Cheryl Ragsdale
This week’s “Stay Young from the Inside Out” blog carnival includes an extensive list of interesting posts. Laughing is high on the agenda!
With that, Mr. John Laugherton (great last name) submitted a post on the new male birth control pill and the shift in the balance of power that comes with this new male freedom.
I wonder what would have happened if the pill had been developed for men in the first place. My prediction is that more men will be inclined to use the pill than other methods. No more feelings of being “trapped” by becoming “accidentally” pregnant – for both people involved. The shift in responsibility rests with both instead of just with one. What a relief!
Aparna reminds us of the importance of maintaining our sense of humor when bad things happen. On that topic, Lance Ekum introduces the Levity Project with his Car Dancing video as a way of spreading joy and bringing smiles to stranger’s faces.

The Levity Project: Car Dancing Micro-Movement
Look for me (Cheryl) dancing and wearing a red hat about 2 minutes in – I take my car dancing very seriously… lol!
Lance Ekum, from the JungleofLife, joined with Katie West and Ina Lukas, of The Levity Project, in creating the first Levity Project Micro Movement.
Car Dancing: A celebration! People from around the world joining together. In their corner of the world…dancing! In cars. Down sidewalks. In homes. This video is their dance. It’s much more than that though. This video is our dance….for all who watch it. Celebrate! And let that dance in you, whatever it is, take new steps into what is possible!
Do you ever sense how truly connected we are to one another? How our actions, however big or small, however positive or negative…in some way, impact others? To learn more, go to the JungleofLife.

- Aparna presents Sense of humor-tips to regain it posted at Beauty and Personal Grooming, saying, “Our sense of humor abandons us right when we need it the most- on a really bad day. We seem to associate growing up with “getting serious”. Sometimes we suppress our laughter simply because we are afraid of what others will think of us. Our funny bone gets broken. Here are some suggestions for repairing your sense of humor and regaining healthy laughter:”
