Self-Help Tip #42: Remember To Smile

 

PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT Medical advice. Please read disclaimers.

These days I'm insecure about smiling, because I just got braces on my teeth (again). Which is obviously a shame because, "research has verified that smiling increases feel-good chemicals such as serotonin and dopamine in the brain, thereby reducing stress and promoting feelings of relaxation."

  

Want to smile? "An authentic smile is the product of a reflex generated by the limbic system, the brain's emotional center," and "faking a genuine smile isn't just hard - it's scientifically impossible" . . . 

So instead, try to ...

  1. Think about things that make you happy
  2. Spend time with amusing friends
  3. Watch comedy
  4. (Oh, and if you ever have braces, diligently wear your retainer afterwards!!)
  

Wishing you MANY reasons to SMILE 😀🥳

☮️ & ❤️,

Shannon
