Have you ever noticed that when you're having a bad day and are in the worst mood, you'll just suddenly smile and feel better when you chat with or see someone else smiling? Studies have shown that smiling is "contagious," proving the rumor to be true.

Your orbitofrontal cortex, which processes sensory rewards, becomes active when you see a smile. As a result, when you notice someone else grinning, you feel rewarded, which is a satisfying emotion and makes you smile!

Additionally, studies have shown that smiling instantly improves your mood, even if you are in a terrible mood, because smiling alone is enough to release happy hormones. Keep scrolling to see more of your favorite celebrities smiling.

People frequently smile when they are happy. But that's only the beginning; as your facial muscles begin to smile, a positive feedback loop travels back to your brain, reinforcing your happy sensation.

Simply put, smiles happen when we feel good. Our brain then tells our facial muscles to smile; we smile and tell our brain that we feel good, and so on.

Additionally, these acts make you healthy, so giggling can be just as beneficial as exercise.
