The reasons behind a fear of smiling

Almost everyone who has NOT been trained to smile feels uncomfortable smiling deliberately because they think:

it is false,

it is embarrassing,

they feel foolish,

their smile is ugly

it might frighten people away rather than attract them.

Most of these reasons can be traced back to a criticism.

What to expect when you remove your fear.

Confidence.

Your fear of smiling stops you from feeling comfortable when you smile deliberately, so when you remove your fear of smiling you will wonder what all the fuss was about because you are able to smile whenever you want.

You will then have no trouble practicing your smile, perfecting your smile and using your smile. You will be able to smile at other people, for the camera, use it as a weapon to attract a partner and you will feel great smiling at any time.

What to do next

To remove this fear of smiling first make a list of complaints and fears you have about your inability to smile comfortably.

You will use these complaints to reverse your "feelings" and your "low confidence" about smiling by using an energy technique that will totally amaze you with the almost-instant results.

Trust me please. Make your list now. Use the list below as examples and add your own, but I beg you to exaggerate, do not be conservative. If you feel silly, say "I feel like a complete idiot" or something strong like that.
