A friend asked how I was doing and told me to smile, even if things were shit, fake smile. For reals. I couldn't get it out of my head. It was stuck in there all day today so I smiled. All day. For no reason at all. I was at work filing and smiled. I was at home cleaning and smiled. I was at a baseball game and smiled. I actually think it worked. I felt good all day. Amazing! Here are a few facts I found online.
Smiling releases endorphins and makes us feel better
Even ‘faking’ a smile can lead to feeling happier
Even if you don't feel like it. Studies have shown that smiling releases endorphins even in sad people. The trick? It is the initial act of smiling that causes the release.
