Does this come with benefits?
Cures fits and rage, at any stage
Anti-age
… that’s why I smile, all the while
Smile!
[Break]
[Verse 1]
In this life, we’re chasing dreams
But happiness, oh, it’s more than it seems
It’s not just a feeling, it’s a way to heal
Body and mind, you’re my “for real”
[Pre-Chorus]
When your heart beats strong and your soul’s at ease
You’ll find there’s more to this life to seize
[Chorus]
With benefits that reach beyond the smile
It’s more than just temporary style
Improved heart wealth, knowing you’re soon
Reduced stress, less, less, it’s a precious swoon
Longer life, less strife, living life so bright
Enhanced connections, resilience takes flight
Enchanted meant, connections, delight
With happiness, the world’s in sight
With benefits that make life right
Alright
All right
[Break]
[Verse 2]
Lower pressure, low, low, low, below
Inflamed all down, do, de, do, do, down
Down, go down
Happiness helps turn that frown around
Boosting what you see, frames what one sees
With every laugh, we find a little peace
Piece oh peace
[Pre-Chorus]
When your heart beats strong and your soul’s at ease
You’ll find there’s more to this life to seize
[Chorus]
With benefits that reach beyond the smile
It’s more than just a temporary style
Improved heart wealth, anxiety immune
Reduced stress, less, less, it’s a precious swoon
Longer life, less strife, living life so bright
Enhanced connections, resilience takes flight
With happiness, the world’s in sight
With benefits that make life right
Alright
All right
[Break]
[Bridge]
Through the ups and downs, the twists and turns
Happiness helps us weather, helps us learn
It builds us up, makes us stand tall
With happiness, we can conquer all
[Break]
[Outro]
So let’s hold on tight to the joy within
With happiness, we know we’ll win
With benefits that make life right
It’s…
With benefits
[End]
[Silence]
A SCIENCE LESSON
Being happy has numerous health benefits, both physical and psychological. Here are some of the key benefits:
- Improved Heart Health: Studies have shown that happiness and positive emotions are associated with a reduced risk of heart disease. Positive emotions can lead to lower blood pressure, reduced inflammation, and healthier cholesterol levels, all of which contribute to better heart health.
- Strengthened Immune System: Happiness and positive emotions have been linked to a stronger immune system. People who are happier tend to have higher levels of immune-boosting antibodies and are less susceptible to infections and illnesses.
- Reduced Stress Levels: Happiness acts as a buffer against stress, helping to lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol in the body. Chronic stress can weaken the immune system, increase inflammation, and contribute to a range of health problems, so reducing stress through happiness is beneficial for overall health.
- Longer Lifespan: Research suggests that happier people tend to live longer than those who are unhappy or stressed. Positive emotions have been associated with a decreased risk of mortality from various causes, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, and accidents.
- Better Mental Health: Happiness is closely linked to improved mental well-being and a reduced risk of mental health disorders such as depression and anxiety. Positive emotions can enhance resilience, coping skills, and self-esteem, making individuals more psychologically resilient in the face of life’s challenges.
- Enhanced Social Connections: Happy people tend to have stronger social support networks and more satisfying relationships, which are important for overall health and well-being. Positive emotions foster empathy, kindness, and cooperation, strengthening social bonds and promoting a sense of belonging and community.
- Increased Resilience: Happiness and positive emotions can build psychological resilience, helping individuals to bounce back from setbacks, overcome adversity, and adapt to change more effectively. Resilient individuals are better able to navigate life’s ups and downs and maintain a sense of optimism and hopefulness.
Overall, cultivating happiness and prioritizing positive emotions can have profound benefits for both physical and psychological health, contributing to a longer, healthier, and more fulfilling life.
