We can become happier by laughing more, we all know that right? So do psychologists. However, despite many stressors, we can adjust our mood by simply using a pencil. This means becoming the creator of our happiness and not letting it fade.
Do you know how you can improve your mood with just a simple trick? See what you can do just by holding a pencil in your mouth.
Simple actions and behaviors can add to our emotions
The topic of happiness has been studied for many decades and some scholars have reached an interesting conclusion. Simple actions of your body can greatly affect your emotions. A pretty good example is the fact that women with less confidence in leadership roles can feel powerful when they see a picture of a powerful political woman in front of them.
The same mechanism occurs with a smile: "Smiling tends to make you feel satisfied." Some students were asked to rate how funny a cartoon was. The ending was startling. Because for all those who held a pencil in their mouth, the cartoon was the funniest.
Studimi i studentëve me karikaturën ka provuar se teoria është e vërtetë. Ky veprim i thjeshtë ishte shumë efektiv. Pra, duke vendosur një laps në gojë, në mënyrë horizontale, i bën buzët të marrin automatikisht formën e një buzëqeshjeje. Dhe trupi e njeh mirë këtë veprim, pra ai monitoron vazhdimisht të gjitha gjërat që ndodhin me trupin. Pastaj fillon t'i analizojë ato për të gjykuar se si po ndiheni. Pra, në thelb, ju “mashtroni” trurin me një shprehje të lumtur në fytyrë.
Në një studim tjetër, u vu re se efekti i një veprimi kaq të thjeshtë mund të zgjaste nga 15 minuta në 20 minuta - deri në 2 ditë, dhe ky ndikim është konstant. Trupi dhe truri janë tepër të ndjeshëm dhe mund të korrigjohen me një stimul të lehtë.
Such stimuli can be sounds, tastes, smells and visual effects. So it is better to pay attention to what we consume every day.
When you put yourself in a happier position, your emotional state can change. But the same effect can occur with "unhappy" actions. If you start practicing a depressed face, you will notice how your mood is deteriorating. You can try it even without a pencil.
As for other simple actions that can make you happier, psychologists recommend that you stay longer and take deep breaths in order to feel more confident.
