How well you smile determines how fulfilling and long lasting your marriage will be.
How sincere you smile determines how successful you will be.
The span of your smile could determine the span of your life.
Humans are born smiling. Babies start smiling in the womb, and continue to smile during their sleep. Even blind babies smile to the sound of the human voice.
Even humans living in tribes disconnected from western culture, and also known for their cannibalism culture, would smile under circumstance that people like us would.
It's very difficult to frown to someone who smile. Why? Because smile is evolutionarily contagious, and it suppresses the control we have on our facial muscles.
Mimicking a smile and experiencing it physically would help us understand whether a smile is fake or real, so that we can understand the emotional state of the smiler.
"Even the simulation of an emotion tends to arouse it in our minds." ~ Charles Darwin.
Research has shown that one smile can generate the same level of brain stimulation as up to 2,000 bars of chocolates. The same study found that smiling is as stimulating as receiving up to £16,000 cash.
Smiling can help reduce the level of stress enhancing hormones like cortisol, adrenaline and dopamine, increase the level of mood enhancing hormones like endorphine, and reduce overall blood pressure.
Smiling can make you look good in the eyes of others. Research has found that when you smile you not only appear to be more likeable and courteous, but you actually appear to be more competent.
"I will never understand all the good that a simple smile can accomplish." ~ Mother Teresa
If you want to enjoy all the above...
SMILE!
