Now it's posted here as well...Enjoy this short but interesting read.
Renowned physicians have scientifically documented that smiling, literally using our facial muscles to put on a happy face, triggers specific brain neurotransmitters to shift the balance of the brain’s feel-good chemicals to overcome unhappiness. "And, that’s just with smiling". Imagine what’s happening when people are rolling around laughing and saying "I feel great!" They’ve just hit a whole other level of fantastic well-being!
When you’re happy you are alive and buzzing with “happiness juices,” they are the very real chemicals in your body and brain that are the foundation of positive experiences. That’s what energizes and compels people to see a more positive side of life when they are surrounded by so many negative energies.
Getting energized is quite literally, addictive...
There are no drugs more powerful than the natural happiness enhancing ones that are available in your brain right now.
We all have:
- Endorphins, the brain’s painkiller that is 3 times stronger than morphine. many poor people may need that to kick out all the negative thoughts and sometimes nightmarish predictions in their heads. Essential for people living in difficult circumstances, wouldn’t you say?
- Serotonin, which naturally calms anxiety. It’s also very beneficial for people who are constantly struggling to survive, don’t you think?
- Oxytocin, a bonding chemical which is often called the “happy hormone.” It’s elevated when people are really connected, totally present. What human being doesn’t value that?
- Dopamine, which promotes alertness and a feeling of enjoyment, and also propels us to continually learn and grow. Always present with the people that receive the Gift of Happiness from us.
Gift of Happiness Foundation goes to places where these vital chemicals are lying dormant in the bodies of some of the poorest people in Thailand. We give those people tons of useful goods like clothing, toys educational equipment and medical supplies to help them survive their harsh living conditions.
But most importantly...
Every time we visit and give our comical shows to the poor communities, schools, medical facilities and refugee camps. We give everyone a jolly good dose of feel good chemicals that they can keep and store in their minds until the next time they need a booster injection. They just have to remember that special day when we visited and made everyone fall about laughing.
No-one can ever overdose!
All the natural chemicals that we help to release in people are powerfully addictive and highly contagious. And, no-one can ever overdose!
Want to help us deliver more of these important drugs!
