Great Things Are Happening All Over Grand Junction Colorado

Amy Smith just welcomed her second granddaughter. Congratulations, Amy. Terri and her boyfriend just got "freaky." I guess congratulations is the correct word in this case (I'm not sure what to say).

James is my new best buddy. He just had a 1970 Camaro Z28 delivered to his front door. I'm unclear as to the backstory on this one, but I'm jealous regardless.

This Exciting News Is Making Us Healthier

There are documented health benefits associated with happiness. The "exciting" news listed below will undoubtedly have a profound effect on many of us.

According to Positive Psychology, these are six health benefits associated with happiness:

• Improved Heart Health
• Ability to Combat Stress More Effectively
• A Stronger Immune System
• Overall Healthier Lifestyle
• Can Help Reduce Pain
• Increased Life Longevity

Personally, I agree with every one of those bullet points. It's been proven individuals who are happier have consistently lower cortisol levels (stress hormone) in their blood. In addition, research indicates being happy can support a strong immune system. I can recall reading studies on that point while I was in high school back in the 1980s.
