The Best, FREE Way to Improve Your Life!

It’s natural for humans to want to be happy, healthy, and feel good about themselves.  This has become such a trend that diets, anti-depressants, gyms and other “health organizations” have become multi-billion dollar industries.  The one thing they are not telling you, though, is that there is something you can do from the comfort of your home that is absolutely FREE!

 Smiles are FREE!

            All you have to do is smile

 

Smiling has proven to have countless positive effects on our bodies and personal lives.  Not only does it mark our health, mood, success or perspective; but it can touch the lives of those around us.  When they told us as little kids that “smiling is contagious”, they weren’t joking!  Below are the top 10 effects of showing off those pearly whites.

 

1. Relaxation: Smiling actually helps your body relax and decreases the amount of stress, which in turn can boost your immune system as well as lower your heart rate and blood pressure.

 

2. Positive Mood: Smiling releases endorphins in your body which can truly put you in a better mood and act as a natural pain killer.

 

3. Longevity: According to studies, those who smile more end up living, on average 7 years longer than those who do not.

 

4. Look Younger: The muscles used to smile lift the face and over time make the person appear younger.

 

5. Look More Attractive: It has been shown that people who smile are considered to be more attractive and draw more attention to themselves.

 

6. Success: People who smile seem more confident and more likely to influence others and be trusted.

 

7. Positive Outlook: It is hard to be negative and pessimistic while smiling and this can affect one’s entire outlook on life and other experiences.

 

8. Build Relationships: Smiling is a universal symbol of happiness, openness and friendliness.  One is likely to build more relationships if they possess these qualities.

 

9. Increase Focus: When distracted, smiling can intervene within the subconscious and allow the mind to refocus on an idea or multitask on many ideas.

“Keep smiling because life is a beautiful thing and there’s so much to smile about”

So get out there and flash a few smiles (no fake smiles allowed!!) and just see how it affects your life.

Enjoy your week!
