According to Eastern medicine, joy is the emotion associated with the heart. It has long been observed that happy go-lucky people are less likely to develop heart disease, and science confirms this. One study showed that one in five patients with coronary heart disease comes from the population of the severely depressed. Researchers found that pleasurable emotions increased levels of natural killer immune cells. Take steps to practice joy in your daily life, and it will expand naturally. Let joy fill your heart, and your heart will gladden your health.
