The smile is physiologically a facial expression formed by the flexion of 17 muscles at the extremities of the mouth, but also near the eyes.
The smile not only changes the expression of the face but also stimulates the brain to produce endorphin that reduces physical and emotional pain and gives a good feeling.
The smile has the power to change your entire state of mind, but not only yours.
British researchers have found that a single smile can generate the same level of brain stimulation as 2,000 chocolate tablets.
The smile brings the same satisfaction as when you found 20,000 euros of ice money in a pocket of an old cloth.
The benefits of the smile
- You're passing easily in an embarrassing situation.
- You are forgiven more easily when you smile.
- You will inspire more confidence if you smile.
- The smile can mask our true state of mind.
The smile can work as a therapy to restore heart health after an unfortunate event, according to a study by researchers at the University of Kansas.
Never cease to smile, even when you are sad, because we can't know who can fall in love with your smile.
