Tears and crying don’t really sound like things that are going to infect you with positivity or inspire you.

But TeeJay disagrees and so does science! There’s evidence to suggest a good cry does you good.

So why do we often end up apologising for getting emotional in public.

Did you know that there are different types of tears and the make up of the tears all depends on the reason we are crying!

TeeJay examines the work of Dr William Frey who has examined crying and why we cry.

The good news is you don’t need tissues for this episode but you will feel more empowered to have a cry the next time you need to.

Let TeeJay know your thoughts about having a good cry.
