Little Book of Smiles

The Little Book of Smiles is the perfect way to spread a little cheer! It reminds us that a smile is like sunshine; a symbol of friendship, peace, and appreciation. There are a myriad of reasons to smile; from expressing thanks, delight or approachability, to reaching out to those in need. It is important to recognise how a smile can mean so much, yet cost nothing at all.

The more we smile, the happier we feel - yet another simple reason to smile, even when we think we have no reason to. Some scientific studies have shown that the mere act of smiling can cause a chemical reaction in the brain, releasing 'happy' hormones such as dopamine and serotonin. Smiling is also contagious!
