If you are not grinning like a Cheshire cat at least once a day, you are doing something wrong.
Smiling is one of the simplest ways to boost your mood, increase your self-esteem and project positivity to others. Dazzling teeth or not, forcing yourself into a grin can have a huge impact on your overall health.
Not convinced? We have got together a few reasons why smiling is healthy for you and improve your training at Evolution Martial Arts and Fitness Academy…
Increased self-confidence
The uplift in confidence you receive from a few smiles can be truly transformative.
Whether you are out with new people or taking part in an important meeting, smiling can give your self-esteem a huge boost, while projecting an image of success.
That positivity is contagious too – making people feel more comfortable to be around you.
Lower blood pressure
Smiling doesn’t just have a positive effect on your mental state.
Consistent smiling can actively lower your blood pressure by immediately increasing your heart rate and oxygen consumption. When your heart rate drops, your muscles will relax and blood pressure will decrease.
All of this means that even smiling for small portions of the day can lower your chances of heart disease!
Pain relief
Regular smiling releases endorphins, which is the body’s feel-good chemical.
However, if you are up for some add-on benefits, why not try a little chuckle too. Laughing can offer some soothing pain relief to help you recover from a tough workout or a nasty headache.
It turns out laughing really is the best medicine!
A youthful look
Smiling has been proven to make us seem more attractive and give us a youthful aura to other people. When everyone is training at Evolution Martial Arts and Fitness Academy which are full of smiling people, they were more likely to guess they were younger than if they weren’t smiling.
If you are worried about your first time at our Evolution Academy, don’t worry, we can make you smile before you know it.
Stress relief
After a stressful day at work, nothing improves your mood more than smiling.
If you are not regularly letting that stress go, the build up can cause some serious medical problems in the long term.
When you are catching up with your friends training together, smiling and laughing is the best stress reliever.
The best part?
Smiling doesn’t cost a penny.
