Unfortunately the author of this quote in unknown, but there is so much truth is in these words! There are hundreds of scientific studies that show that people who are happier are also healthier...
Once again, our body, mind and spirit are intrinsically connected, so it makes sense that if your mind and your spirit are happy, your body will follow and it will be much healthier! Think of the organization which sends clown in the hospital because they discovered that people heal faster if they are in a good and positive mood...
A lot of research has been conducted to explore why some people seem to be happier than others, and the results all point to 4 main factors: 1.
Happy people like themselves, they have a high level of self esteem and self love 2.
They are usually extroverted, which means they get energized by being around other people.
Extroverted people also have a tendency to think at the same time as they talk (which could cause some problems in some situations...
)) 3.
Happy people feel that they are in control of their life.
The concept of being in control of one's life is a tricky one, as some people might say "Well, if I had a better job, or a better house or a different partner, I too would feel in control of my life!".
However, feeling in control of one's life has a lot to do with taking responsibility of what we do, we say, we choose for ourselves...
4.
Happy people are commonly optimistic...
They live with the belief that "As one door closes another one opens"! Now, let's make a little step further...
Did you actually know that if you fell a bit sad, or down, or don't feel very well and you actually smile rather than frown, the smiling position of your face muscles will be recorded by your brain as happy and in a few minutes you will start feeling much better? A beautiful smile is not just a message that we send out to other people to let them know we are friendly and happy, it is also a message that we can send to our body, mind and spirit to pick ourselves up! One more step...
A smile is highly contagious!! If you smile to a stranger in the street, most likely they will smile back and people will always be drawn more easily towards a person who smiles rather than a person who looks serious! And as another unknown author rightly said: Smile! Because you never know who is going to fall in love with your smile...
