The Power of Smiling

When it comes to the #serviceindustry, the benefits of smiling can only make the #event that much better, including happier guests, #staff, #eventplanners and clients. We'll surely toast to that!

Smiling has documented therapeutic effects, and has been associated with:

• Reduced stress hormone levels (like cortisol, adrenaline, and dopamine)
• Increased health and mood enhancing hormone levels (like endorphins)
• Lowered blood pressure

If that’s not enough, smiling also makes us look good in the eyes of others, as ​studies have confirmed that when we smile we not only appear more likable and courteous, but we’re actually perceived to be more competent. Check out this great Forbes article for more info!
