Share a Compliment and a Smile

Today is World Compliment day! With less focus on providing material representations of appreciation, this day is meant to cost absolutely nothing at all, so everyone can participate! So this day is a reminder to vocalize your positive thoughts and watch them light up a room! As it says on the World Compliment Day website: “If on March 1st every person pays at least three people in their environment or social network a genuine and sincere compliment we will definitely create the Most Positive Day in the World!” To read more about World Compliment day click HERE.

Today is also Share a Smile Day!! It’s a day that encourages us to be a little more joyful. Smiling doesn’t only have emotional benefits — it has a lot of health benefits too. It leads you to feel relaxed and happy. This in turn can reduce your blood pressure and stress levels, increase your endurance, and even strengthen your immune system. So if you don’t have a reason to smile, be the reason that someone else smiles and you might be surprised at how quickly you feel like smiling.
