[Quote No.49077] Need Area: Fun > General "The free expression by outward [physical] signs of an emotion intensifies it
[- for example smiling. ... recent studies — involving botox, of all things — suggest he was onto something. SciAm's Melinda Wenner explains:
'Psychologists at the University of Cardiff in Wales found that people whose ability to frown is compromised by cosmetic botox injections are happier, on average, than people who can frown. The researchers administered an anxiety and depression questionnaire to 25 females, half of whom had received frown-inhibiting botox injections. The botox recipients reported feeling happier and less anxious in general; more important, they did not report feeling any more attractive, which suggests that the emotional effects were not driven by a psychological boost that could come from the treatment's cosmetic nature.'
'It would appear that the way we feel emotions isn't just restricted to our brain-there are parts of our bodies that help and reinforce the feelings we're having,' says Michael Lewis, a co-author of the study. 'It's like a feedback loop.']

[Quote No.57125] Need Area: Fun > General "[Smile and laugh: why?] The free expression by outward signs of an emotion intensifies it. On the other hand, the repression, as far as this is possible, of all outward signs softens our emotions... Even the simulation of an emotion tends to arouse it in our minds. [Refer the 'facial feedback' hypothesis, that holds that skeletal muscle feedback from facial expressions plays a causal role in regulating emotional experience and behaviour. It is an important part of several contemporary theories of emotion, and is consistent with the old adage 'fake it [an emotion] till you make [actually feel] it' and 'act it till it's a fact'.]" - Charles Darwin Author's Info on Wikipedia - Author on ebay - Author on Amazon - More Quotes by this Author Start Searching Amazon for Gifts Send as Free eCard with optional Google Image |
