When was the last time you really laughed—like, full-belly, can’t-catch-your-breath, tears-in-your-eyes kind of laughed?
If you had to think about it, it’s been too long.
It feels like we are constantly pushed to be serious, productive, and endlessly busy, How to Giggle: A Guide to Taking Life Less Seriously is a breath of fresh air. It’s not just a book—it’s a mindset shift. A permission slip to loosen up, lighten the load, and invite joy back into your daily life.
Laughing Is Not a Luxury—It’s a Life Skill
This book reminds us that giggling isn’t just for kids. It’s a powerful tool for staying grounded and resilient in a world that often feels heavy. When we take ourselves a little less seriously, we open the door to creativity, connection, and even healing.
Let Go of the Pressure to Be Perfect
One of the biggest lessons from How to Giggle is that perfectionism is overrated. The author encourages readers to embrace the messiness of life, laugh at their own mistakes, and stop comparing their behind-the-scenes to someone else’s highlight reel.
Because let’s be honest—nobody has it all together. And if they say they do, they’re probably overdue for a good giggle themselves.
Find the Funny in the Ordinary
You don’t need a comedy show to laugh more. Sometimes, humor hides in the mundane: a kitchen fail, an awkward moment, or a random conversation that spirals into silliness. How to Giggle teaches us to stay open to the ridiculous, the unexpected, and the beautifully imperfect.
Takeaway: Lighten Up to Level Up
Living your hero life doesn’t mean you have to be serious all the time. In fact, lightening up might just be the secret to going further. Giggling doesn’t mean you don’t care—it means you’ve chosen joy, even when life doesn’t hand it to you easily.
So here’s your challenge today:
Laugh a little more. Let something go. Dance in your kitchen. Tell a joke, even if it’s terrible. And if all else fails—just smile at the absurdity of it all.
Because life’s too short not to giggle.
