Laughter is the Best Medicine: How a Daily DOSE of Joy Combats Loneliness and Midlife Stress

In this episode, Lara talks with Cathy Nesbitt about midlife reinvention, the global mental health tsunami, and why laughter is more powerful than we think.

Cathy shares how laughter yoga works as a cardiovascular workout that reduces stress, shifts energy, and boosts immunity by changing our brain chemistry. She also introduces her DOSE method — Dopamine, Oxytocin, Serotonin, and Endorphins — the feel-good hormones released when we laugh.

They also explore navigating midlife, setting boundaries with technology, embracing change, and the freedom that comes from putting yourself first.
