I put on the big Duchesne smile.
Fortunately, I was all by myself.
So there wasn't anyone to see me looking silly.
Put on the big Duchesne smile, did about three big diaphragmatic breaths, slowly, evenly, just allowed myself to enjoy that.
The stretching of the diaphragmatic muscle took my blood pressure again.
My blood pressure had dropped 30 points.
In a matter of,
minutes now it's not going to stay there it's not going to stay there for forever but the more you can remind your body how it is supposed to feel the quicker it is to achieve that state again and then you realize that when you're going through your day if you're if you're feeling upset you're aware that being upset will raise blood pressure
You know, having the stress chemicals in your system just isn't good for you.
It's not good for your immune system, not good for your health, not good for anything.
So you can just do this, just walking down the stairs, put on a smile, take that big diaphragmatic breath, release it, release that tension.
And the proof is in the pudding.
You get to see that.
But it goes even further, Mick.
Because when you look at optimism studies, they found that more optimistic people will live longer, have better relationships, be better off financially, better off in their careers, they're better parents.
It goes in every single direction, just from being optimistic and smiling and optimistic.
You know, one is going to be a belief in the future, but the other just reinforces it.
So when you're smiling and you're thinking about your future, it's easier to feel positively about it.
And there are other techniques in my training where I explain how to increase your optimism because some people are just naturally pessimistic.
Progressive awareness research is all about researching tools and techniques to enhance the quality of someone's life.
