Smile Meditation!

Be, preferably, in a closed room, such as your bedroom or your bathroom, keep a mirror that can atleast show your face fully. If the mirror is of full-body-length, it is better. Look at yourself calmly. You can have a soothing music in the background. Breathe slowly. Look at yourself.


Look at your eyes. Just smile. Do not break into laughter. Just smile. If you feel like laughing, just take a deep breath. And smile. Look at your eys, your face, your lips. Be yourself. Do not think anything. You are with yourself. If you are in a front of a full body mirror, you observe other parts of yourself. If you are comfortable being nude or semi-nude, be that. Just relax without thinking anything. Just smile.

You will be bombarded with thoughts. Just defer them for sometime. Just relax nad smile.

You are the most beautiful the way you are. And you are always striving to better yourself than ever. You are better than what you were yesterday.

See the way your lips curve when you smile. If some of your teeth are visible, just loook at them. Smile. Simply smile.

Do this everyday for at least one minute at the beginning, and increase the duration to about five minutes daily. That's enough to make each of your day great. You will have the best plans, best thoughts, best work, best people, best opportunities the whole day. You need not do it in the morning only. Do it whenever you feel like and are comfortable for five minutes, being alone. Do not do anything else while doing this. Do not brush teeth, or comb hair, or masturbate while doing this. Just relax and smile for five minutes a session.

This technique is not new. But this has worked for many. I can vouch for each one of them, and most importantly for myself.

Every moment you will be better than what you were earlier.

Smile! :)
