Smiling is the natural response to a benevolent gesture, a funny joke, or the hug of a child. We smile when we see friends or our significant other. We smile when something unexpectedly good happens. A broad smile shares our happiness with others in the most generous way. Smiling actually triggers activity in your brain, stimulating the area of your brain that recognizes happiness. In honor of the month’s celebration of Make Someone Smile Week, we look at the positive aspects of a great smile.
Did you know that smiling, even if you don’t feel like it, will make you feel happier? The simple act sets off endorphins in your body that gives you a heightened sense of well being. And as strange as it seems, smiling is contagious! Being in proximity to someone who is laughing and smiling seems to transmit that emotion, making you involuntarily smile along. So much positivity for such a small gesture!
