The benefits of a smile

Women's golfer Nisako Shibuno (20 years old) won the AIG All-British Women's Open in the final round of this season's majors.

It is the first time in 42 years that the Japanese team has won the All-British Women's Pro Championship in 1977.


Shibuno Hyugako Pro is a rising star who has been a professional golfer for one year.


The Shibuno Pro won the title that many great names could not reach.


It was an article that explored the effect of a smile on the feat accomplished by the 20-year-old named "Smiled Cinderella".


As for the positive effects of smiles on play, Hideaki Takai, an associate professor of sports psychology at Nippon University of Physical Education, explains that "relaxing facial muscles also relaxes muscles in other areas and has the effect of relaxing."


It is said that the same effect can be expected just by opening and squeezing your mouth wide.


It has been pointed out that "it is easy to demonstrate the original power by making it on and off dare to make it on and off, and by loosening the tense thread once."


Shibuno changed his mind when he entered the play, and his expression tightened.


Toshio Imura, director of the Japan Mental Trainers Association, said, "We control substances in the brain to create a good sense of tension."


Mr. Imura says, "If you continue to train yourself to think calmly about what you need to do now while talking with your teammates and thinking about fun things, you will be able to turn your concentration on and off in important matches."


It is wonderful that the effect of such a smile is taken up as news in golf which is considered to be the ultimate mental sport.


I want everyone to know that we can all live happily using the benefits of this smile while we live every day.
