I've been speaking with Dr. Anish Singla.

He's a physician who specializes in treating pain and anxiety.

And he is author of the book, Why It Hurts, A Physician's Insights on the Purpose of Pain.

And if you'd like to check that out, there's a link to that book at Amazon in the show notes.

Appreciate you coming on.

Thank you, Doctor.

People generally smile because they're happy.

However, it may be a good idea to smile even when you're unhappy.

It seems the simple act of smiling has been shown to relieve stress, boost your immune system, lower your blood pressure, improve your mood, make you look younger, and a bunch of other things.

But smiling is also contagious and it makes you seem more approachable to other people.

It also makes you appear more attractive and successful.

All of that just from a smile.

And that is something you should know.

If you have a moment, one of the things that really helps the success of any podcast is ratings and reviews.

And yeah, we have a lot of them, but...

There's no such thing as too many, and the more the better, and it really does help us.

It helps because people can see that people are listening and they have good things to say.

So if you could leave us a rating and review, it would be greatly appreciated.

I'm Mike Carruthers.

Thanks for listening today to Something You Should Know.
