A girlfriend recently shared her secret to a facelift alternative. “I noticed that when I smile, it pulls sagging areas up. So, I try to remember to keep a smile on my face!”
Liz is right, but there are far more benefits to that smile of hers than a more youthful facial appearance. People who smile often are said to add two years to their life while frequent frowns tend to decrease one’s lifespan by a year. Why is this?
Smiling increases endorphins. Endorphins are a chemical in your brain that lead to feelings of happiness, giving you a natural high. From some studies, you can effectively change your psychological and physiological state by smiling, even when faking a smile. Smiling is said to improve immunity, increase pain and frustration tolerance and heighten creativity levels.
When a smile shows chipped, broken or worn teeth, teeth that are discolored or crooked or missing teeth, people tend to ‘hold back’ on their smile. A subconscious habit of those with smile flaws is covering their smile with a hand or showing a ‘lips-only’ smile.
