If you feel that you have an unattractive smile, you probably don’t smile very often. Perhaps you make a deliberate effort to avoid smiling in social and professional settings.
Do you think frequent smiling has a meaningful effect on your life? You bet it does.
In addition to simply making us happier, smiling supports our quality of life in a myriad of ways.
1. Look Younger and More Attractive
It doesn’t take a scientific study to substantiate this fact. No matter your age, you always look better with a smile on your face.
When you smile, your brain releases feel-good chemicals that decrease your stress level.
3. Smiling Bolsters Your Confidence
Who doesn’t want to benefit from more self-assurance?
4. Smile For Success
Researchers have shown several ways smiling can enhance the chance of a good outcome in personal and professional pursuits. These benefits stem from the fact that smiling influences your behavior as well as the behavior of the men and women with whom you interact.
5. Help People Trust You
Authentic smiles that involve the mouth, cheeks, and eyes, represent honesty and trustworthiness.
