Awakening with smile

A smile is a facial expression formed primarily by flexing the muscles at the sides of the mouth. It is believed it takes about 42 muscles to smile. Now when we smile, the brain gets the message and three things happen:

*Happiness - Brain releases happiness generating chemicals into our system in response.
*Mood Elevation - holding the smile, or thinking pleasant thoughts will cause calming, mood enhancing reactions in our body.
*It's Contagious - When we smile at someone, they mostly smile back. Now do this at your own cost unless you want to provoke an interesting reaction!

Meditation Technique:

*Sitting comfortably or lying down.

*Close your eyes. Take few deep breaths through your nose and breathe out through your mouth.

*Center yourself by establishing a natural rhythm of your breath.

*You can also do mantra chant(OM) for establishing an altered state of consciousness.

*Bring to your mind, a person or an incident which made you really happy. It could be a joyful or silly moment. It could be a person who's presence has filled your life with love and happiness. Think of it and notice the natural smile on your face. Feel the sensation of this smile on your mind, eyes, cheeks, heart and other parts of your body.

*Pause and notice the feeling.

*Allow it to spread within, so that each cell of your body is smiling with this feeling.

*Allow it to spread to everyone and everything around you.

*Express gratitude for this beautiful experience, be thankful for the happiness that you have experienced and given out through your thoughts.

*Slowly return your consciousness by rubbing your hands, touching your face and looking at your palms as you open your eyes.

Stretch, Smile and be in the state of awareness as you go about your day. Notice the happiness this meditation brings to you and others around you.

This practice can be done regularly until we become mindful about it. When we’re mindful of positive traits and behaviours in others, we feel more supported, and that leads to us feeling more able to support others in return. This practice will be with you even when you are interacting with others or being alone.

Keep Smiling and Happy Meditating.
