Your SMILE positively affects others by showing friendliness and approachability, which encourages trust and stronger relationships. The SMILE can start a contagious “ripple effect,” that spreads positivity and warmth. One that SMILES often is considered by others as more competent, trustworthy and attractive. When you SMILE you increase mood-enhancing hormones and decrease stress-enhancing hormones. Which then reduces blood pressure, contributing to a longer life.

Babies SMILE before they are born. It is believed to be a reflex reaction, like moving the arms and legs inside mommies tummy. The first “real” SMILE is a sign of emotion and affection. This happens 6 to 12 weeks of age. They learn quickly that a SMILE lets them connect with others. They SMILE to express pleasure, excitement, contentment and happiness. They are saying “Hey you are doing a good job.” It has been found through many studies that, newborns SMILE to a response to belly rubbing. Learn from the infants you encounter, SMILE, and live happier and longer. Get a belly rub now.

Just to let you know, the FIRST FRIDAY IN OCTOBER every year is, “WORLD SMILE DAY.”

TAKE CARE, STAY WELL, STAY HEALTHY. HAVE FAITH. THANK YOU.
