There’s nothing better than a really good belly laugh, the kind that leaves you gasping for breath with tears running down your cheeks. By the time you collect yourself, your whole body is more relaxed, your mood is lighter, everything feels cleansed. You’re probably getting healthier, too. Laughter therapies like laughter yoga and laughter meditation have been gaining popularity for the past several decades as methods of improving physical and mental well-being. Plus, unlike asking people to clean up their diets or take medicines with unpleasant side effects, just about everyone is willing to yuk it up to their favorite television show or comedian. Learn more about the benefits of using humor as therapy and check out our own guided laughter meditation video.

That means squatting, and squatting often. In addition to making you faster, stronger (& so much more), it helps counteract all that sitting we do and lets us tap into a very Primal, very essential mode of repose. Interested in incorporating more squatting into your life? Read more to learn the proper way to squat as well as helpful tips.

[Health Coach Radio]( A Renaissance in Fitness with Brad Kearns For part two in our two-part series on Primal Fitness, today we are welcoming Brad Kearns back to Health Coach Radio. As many of our listeners know, Brad is the co-author of many of Mark Sisson's books, including Primal Endurance, the host of the B.rad Podcast, former professional triathlete and world champion endurance athlete, and a guy who seems to be defying the usual laws of aging by remaining incredibly competitive in sports and fitness to this day. In today's chat with Brad, we really took a hard look at the fitness industry, examining where the opportunities for change are and why. As Brad put it, and we agree, the fitness industry is due for a major renaissance. In part, it would serve us well to stop thinking of fitness as a separate component of health, as portrayed in the often used phrase "the health and fitness industry". In reality, when done correctly, fitness is health. Brad is the lead author on our newest certification offering, The Primal Fitness Coach certification course, and as you'll hear in this episode, he is the perfect guy for the job!
