People often don’t realize which expressions their faces are showing. Studies reveal that both positive and negative emotional reactions can be triggered unconsciously. Especially when it comes to face-to-face communication.

There are thousands of ways of moving the muscles in our faces. But they all serve to express one of the six basic emotions: joy, surprise, sadness, anger, disgust, and fear. No matter what expressions we show on our faces, it always sends a signal to our brain, and it selects the corresponding emotion.

SMILE is undoubtedly the most powerful facial expression of all.

It is universally considered to be a sign of joy. When you smile (even when you don’t feel much so) it will help to boost your mood in no time.

So smiling is certainly a good idea. Always.

For this purpose I’ve collected a bunch of great quotes about smiling to boost your mood, bring more smiles to your day and uplift your spirit.
