A beautiful, fresh, glowing smile is one of the most powerful human assets. It’s one of the most precious pieces of jewelry one can have and enhances your personality. It has the power to alter and better human interactions. Moreover, it makes your brain work better and improves mood. There is no reason not to smile as often as you can, but if you still need some, here are our top 5 reasons you should smile more.

  • It makes you happy

This simple act release endorphins commonly referred to as the happy hormone. A recent American scientific study proves this as well. It shows that smiling can elevate one’s mood, instill positive thoughts, and be a great motivating factor.

  • Increases self-confidence

It has been observed that successful people often smile more. This is to be expected as a bright smile can increase one’s confidence. Whether in an interview or on a date, a smile conveys confidence and makes you more approachable. This significantly improves interpersonal relationships, further improving your quality of life.

  • Lowers blood pressure

Cardiovascular health is crucial to good quality of life. It can reduce your chances of developing heart disease. In recent times, a rise in lifestyle diseases such as hypertension (high blood pressure) is seen and smiling more has been shown to lower blood pressure. The simple act of smiling increases heart rate and oxygen consumption, followed by muscle relaxation, decreased heart rate, and thus lowered blood pressure. In addition, smiling often also reduces stress, contributing to better heart health.

  • Youthful appearance

Smiling tones and tightens your facial muscles. The more you smile, the more toned will be your facial muscles. This gives you a more youthful appearance and reduces early signs of ageing. In addition, psychological studies also show that people who smile more appear more attractive and often are perceived as much younger looking.

  • Boosts immunity and reduces pain

Did you know that smiling can boost your immunity? Given our times, who wouldn’t like to have a better immune system? Lower levels of stress mean lower cortisol levels (stress hormone), which ultimately means a better immune system. Moreover, the release of endorphins also reduces pain as it relaxes the body and alleviate soreness.
