Looking for a quick resource to ground, stabilize, and nourish? "In our research we found that when you forcefully practice smiling, it stimulates the amygdala—the emotional center of the brain—which releases neurotransmitters to encourage an emotionally positive state. For mental health, this has interesting implications. If we can trick the brain into perceiving stimuli as ‘happy’, then we can potentially use this mechanism to help boost mental health.” Neuroscience News.com
In this guided meditation we are invited to rest into the present moment and simply smile.
