Benefits of Smiling
The facial muscles that are used when smiling can also make the face look younger and healthier. Some experts say it takes about 43 muscles to frown and only 17 muscles to smile. However, other experts say, it takes 62 muscles to frown and only 26 muscles to smile. What does it mean? Smiling is a lot easier to do than frowning.
In addition, when you smile, your body will automatically release hormones endorphin (which is better known as pain reliever natural) and serotonin (which regulates pleasant emotions). When the body is relaxed, the immune system in the body will increase, so that immunity or immunity also increases.
When the ‘happiness hormone’ is less stimulated, the body becomes prone to depression. The body’s metabolism also changes and can lead to decreased blood pressure, weight loss due to lack of appetite, sleeplessness, and loss of desire for social interaction. If it lasts for a long time and is sustainable, it is not impossible to cause other physical problems, such as cancer, which is often triggered by stress.
The physical condition of your body will affect your psychological condition, and vice versa. Without you knowing it, the brain records every time something happens in the cells of the body, then it can affect how we feel.
