7 facts about smiling that will keep you wanna smile always:) ⋆ Believe To Success ~ brings out the best in you

Smile is a natural expression since birth, a gift given to all human beings to enjoy a pleasant life with everyone & everything till death. But some or most of us have forgotten to smile or even how to smile, with random thoughts engulfing the mind as we accomplish each activities living in the past or future, not in the “now”.

“I have many problems in my life, but my lips do not know that.. It always SMILES”.

Sounds familiar, it was non-other than the famous Charlie Chaplin, who was a English comic actor, filmmaker, and composer. A smile is so contagious that it can even influence a moody person to smile even though if he or she did not intend to. Did you know something, that Charles Darwin, best known for his contributions to the science of evolution developed the “Facial Feedback Response Theory” which suggests that the act of smiling actually makes us feel better rather than a “result” of feeling good? That is the power of smiling and its positive benefit. Smiling is so beneficial that it can increase your well-being. Let me list a few of its benefits:

1. Neurotransmitters called endorphins are released when you smile. These are triggered by the movements of the different muscles in your face, that is interpreted by your brain, which in turn releases these chemicals. Endorphins are responsible doesn’t differentiate the difference with a real one

2. Endorphins make us feel happier and less stressed. They also act as the body’s natural pain killers for sufferers of chronic pain, laughing and smiling can be very effective in pain management, so just laugh off the pain when you bump an elbow or fall over.

3. While the release of endorphins is increased, the stress hormone cortisol (a steroid hormone) is reduced. Cortisol is more active when we feel stressed or anxious and contributes to the unpleasant feelings we experience, and by lowering it we can reduce these negative feelings.

4. Laughing expands the lungs, stretches the muscles in the body and stimulates homeostasis(tendency to maintain internal stability). This exercises the body, replenishing the cells from a lungful of oxygen and gaining all the benefits of exercising the body.

5. A good laugh can be an effective way to release emotions, especially those emotions that you might bottle up inside. Everything looks a little bit better after a good laugh and life can be seen from a more positive perspective. Smiling and laughing have positive social implications as well.

6. Smiling is an attractive expression, which is more likely to draw people to you rather than push them away. It also makes you appear more approachable. Interaction with others is easier and more enjoyable when smiles and laughs are shared, and make you a more appealing and attractive person to be around. This in turn will have a positive effect on your well-being.

7. Lastly, a positive expression will serve you well in life.

This is particularly true for challenging situations such as job interviews: a smiling, relaxed personality indicates confidence and an ability to cope well in stressful situations. This will also be of benefit in your career, building healthy relationships with colleagues and being seen in a favourable light by your employers.

Knowing these and to sooth this (temporarily) BelieverS had went out to distribute a simple sweet to passerbys in Woodlands & “fish-out” the beautiful smiles on their face. The sweet definetly does not cost much, but look at the bigger picture and see how this cheap and simple way can bring out the smile in every individual. To be honest some found this approach “weird” and walked away without a smile or the sweet, but there were many who found the approach “weird” and “surprising”, still took the sweet with a beautiful smile. Especially children. This is one way to bring out that beautiful smile. What are the other ways? (Do comment)

Yayy! sweet!”
