Part 1 of 2: Train Yourself to Laugh More
Practice in front of the mirror. If you really want to master something, you need to practice, right? Smiling is no exception. If you're not the type to smile naturally all the time, you need to get used to the feeling of smiling and learn to reproduce it more naturally. Practice by smiling when you're alone, in the bathroom, in your bed, in the car. This way, you will feel less embarrassed.

- Find a smile you like and try to remember how your face feels when you show that smile. This way, you will be able to recreate that smile in everyday situations.
Think about a happy memory or someone you love. Feeling happy makes you smile, so why not take advantage of it?

In short: think about happy things!
Observe people who laugh a lot. Everyone has met at least one person for whom smiling is the easiest and most natural thing in the world. Someone who can laugh at any time, with anyone and at any time. This person can also be loved by everyone, and is known to be approachable and trustworthy. These are traits that make a great smile. Spend time interacting with the person face-to-face and socially, and watching them as they smile.- Make a mental note of how often they smile, along with what makes them smile.Do they smile when you joke? Or do they smile even when you don't make fun of them? Do they smile just because they want to be polite, or are they really happy?
- Now that you have a chance to learn how to lead the usual conversation of a smiley, you will feel more confident about applying the same action and incorporate more smiles into the interaction. your daily routine.
Seek help from others. In this situation, a friend who is willing to help you achieve your goal of laughing more will be of great help. That person can be your lover, your best friend or your coworker - who doesn't matter as long as the person is someone you can trust and has a good sense of humor. All they need to do is give you a little nudge in situations where you forget to smile. This push will motivate you to show off your white smile.- You can also set up small cues, such as a wink or a subtle hand gesture, to communicate with each other from afar in a crowded room.
- People who don't like to laugh often get upset when someone tells them to "laugh!" or "freshen up". However, if you ask a friend to help you in reminding you to smile, remember that you shouldn't be angry with them when they're just trying to do their job. Remember - it was you who asked for this!
Choose a smile stimulant. Much like the "smile friend" in the previous step, a smile stimulator is something that reminds you to smile every time you see or hear it. This could be a specific statement or word, such as "please" or "thank you", it could also be a sticky note on your computer screen. you, or it could be the ringing of a phone or the laugh of someone else.
- Once you have chosen your stimulus, you will need to make an effort to smile every time you come across it. This can make you look silly, but it will help you develop the habit of smiling when needed, and this will help you in social and business situations.
- Another cute idea is to draw a little smiley face in a place where you can usually see it, like on the face of your hand. Do this every day and remember to smile every time you look at it, no matter where you are or who you are with.
Smile at strangers. You've probably heard that smiles are contagious. This means that when you smile at someone, they can't help but smile back. Test that theory and make an effort to smile at the stranger at least once a day - whether it's someone on the street, at work or at school or the person behind you while waiting. wait for the traffic light. Imagine a gesture of friendliness that can form a chain of reactions that spread your smile anywhere. Feeling quite interesting, right?
- In fact, many people will think you are weird and some will not return your smile, but don't let it affect you! Think of your smile as a good deed or as an act of kindness that can help bring someone a brighter day out.
- But if the person smiles back at you (and most people do) you should be able to share this special moment with that person, a fleeting connection with someone else will set you off. feel full of life.
Journal about your smile. For two or three weeks, take a few minutes at the end of the day to write a brief description of the moments that caused you to laugh and the reasons for the smile. Over time, you will become aware of patterns and interactions and events that bring a genuine smile to your face.
- You may have seen a cute squirrel jumping on branches. Or you took the time to call an old friend. Once you become aware of the things that make you smile, you can make an effort to find them in everyday life.
- Another great reason for a smile journal is that you can read it again when you feel sad and remind yourself of the moment when you felt truly happy. This will make you feel happier and smile all the time!
Exercise your facial muscles. Relax your facial muscles by doing exercises that involve stretching and relaxing muscles to help you get a more natural smile and make your smile less awkward. One exercise that helps train the muscles involved in smile formation is as follows:
- Take a pencil and place it between the lips. Open your mouth and let the pencil lie between your teeth, as far as you can go. Bite lightly on the pencil to maintain its position and hold this position for 30 seconds. Do it once a day.
Let's pretend until it comes true. Smiling the first time will definitely make you feel strange - it can be unnatural and artificial. But don't give up. The other person won't notice the difference, and the more often you do it, the more natural your smile will look.
- Smiling is a habit, so if you do it many times, you'll be able to smile without thinking - and this is the goal you want to achieve.
- To make your smile less fake, smile with both your eyes and mouth. A genuine smile is marked by many folds in the muscles around the eyes, and this is exactly what you want to show off.
