\"Act-Happy-Happy-Feet\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Doctors ask us to keep two meters apart to reduce transmission of COVID-19. <\/strong>But don\u2019t let physical distance lead to emotional disconnection. We need each other more than ever right now.<\/p>\n

Whether you are passing people in a hallway, sitting a safe space away, or speaking via video or phone, Smile. When you smile on purpose, it will affect all your interactions, taking them to a more positive emotional space.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Smiling initiates a complex shift of muscles, breath, and body chemistry<\/strong> (you release endorphins!) that creates a more positive mood.\u00a0Plus, what you put out, others mirror back to you, feeding an increasingly positive emotional space.<\/p>\n

So today, Smile on Purpose. <\/strong>\u00a0Start with your face, you\u2019ll feel it in your heart, and that physical distance won\u2019t feel so big after all.<\/p>\n

P.S. Share a Smile<\/strong><\/p>\n

As we practice distancing, remember that everyone will experience isolation differently. <\/strong>If you know someone who may feel lonely or ignored because of these mandates, reach out for a conversation.<\/p>\n

That relative in a senior care facility may not be able to receive visitors, but their phone still works. The co-worker or neighbor you chat up every day? They have a phone or a video connection. Whether you use FaceTime, Zoom, GoogleChat, or just voice, share a smile and refill someone else\u2019s tank \u2013 and remember that when you do, your own will feel refilled as well!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
