"Smiling throughout the day by thinking positive thoughts creates an overall serene feeling. It lowers the body's stress response and quells angry feelings. Even if you don't feel like smiling, the act of smiling relaxes you." Michigan State University study
Today, whether you are a mother or not, try smiling. There have been a number of studies that indicate its effectiveness in elevating our moods. It seems the mere act of turning our faces into a smile, affects the hormones in our bodies. You might spritz some essential oils in the background to give you support. Lavender, orange, clary sage and ylang-ylang encourage relaxation. Thinking of something every day for which you can be grateful is also a way to support your happiness. Happiness may be as simple as choosing to be happy. So, today, smile and think happy thoughts. You are worth it.
