Editor's Notes
- The Smile Effect campaign is designed to be used within a business or other organization as a training tool to help employees use smiling as a stress reduction and energy management technique. The seminar will teach managers and employees how to create anatmosphere that can positively affect the energy levels of all personnel. In addition to creating a positive atmosphere the Smile Effect will show how breathing techniques will help oxygenate their bloodand how to perform energizing stretches that workers can even do at their desks. Employees will learn how laughter and smiling can combat fatigue and stress and leave them feeling renewed, refreshed, and ready to work .
- The Pitch - You have so many responsibilities and obligations to juggle … so much pressure … so many people who expect so much of you. Sometimes life just saps the energy right out of you and makes you grumpy. But grumpy and frowning is no way to live! You need energy, a positive outlook on the world, and you need it now. Good news: your wish has been granted! Your attitude (especially your POSITIVE attitude) is one of your most important resources — and we want nothing more than to help you get it back. That’s why we developed this special one-hour seminar to help you feel in control of your life again. It’s a wonderful opportunity to take just a small morsel of time for yourself to look after your own well-being and the well-being of your community.
- Zajonc points to the part of the body called the internal carotid artery, which is the "pipe" that delivers the majority of blood to the brain. This artery flows through an opening called the cavernous sinus, which contains lots of facial veins. When someone smiles, causing certain facial muscles to stretch and tighten, veins are constricted. This would cut down on the blood flowing to the cavernous sinus, which in turn would reduce the amount of blood flowing through the carotid artery to the brain. Less blood volume means the temperature of that blood drops. When that cooler blood gets to the brain, brain temperature would drop, too, triggering a happy feeling. The theory works in reverse, too: Zajonc says that when the muscles involved in a frown tighten, the result is increased blood flow to the cavernous sinus and, by extension, a warmer brain.
