About this evidence tier

This is a provisional editorial rating for the general practice, not proof that it treats a condition. Research citations will be attached after source-level review. Use the safety notes and judge the practice by your own tracked response.

A gentle, almost imperceptible smile, borrowed from gentle mindfulness traditions, can soften facial tension and signal safety to the body.
