Few things that I have learned this past year is that life can be short!! so here are my few tips to enjoy it as much as possible 🙂 Happiness has also been linked to better decision-making and improved creativity. So, rather than success being the key to happiness, research shows that happiness could in fact be the key to success.

1 – It starts with you!!

Happiness often comes from within. All humans have a tendency to ruminate more on bad experiences than positive ones. So make sure you are over-learning from the dangerous or hurtful situations we encounter through life (bullying, trauma, betrayal).

2- Be your friend!

Just as important as it is to be kind to others, it’s equally important to practice kindness towards yourself. This is the power of acceptance and growth. Being kind to yourself promotes happiness and confidence, how you treat yourself sets the tone for how others will treat you.

3- Take a deep breath

Deep breaths are more efficient: they allow your body to fully exchange incoming oxygen with outgoing carbon dioxide. They have also been shown to slow the heartbeat, lower or stabilize blood pressure and lower stress. To experience deep breathing, find a comfortable place to sit or lie down.

4- Laughter is good for your health

When you start to laugh, it doesn’t just lighten your load mentally, it actually induces physical changes in your body. Laughter can: Stimulate many organs. Laughter enhances your intake of oxygen-rich air, stimulates your heart, lungs and muscles, and increases the endorphins that are released by your brain.

5- Good Mood foods

If you are presently piling plenty of colourful plants on your plate, you are already at a better mood advantage. Research tells us that plant-based diets are associated with healthier mood states. The more fruits and vegetables people eat, the happier, less depressed, and more satisfied they are with their lives.

6- Surround yourself with positivity

Positivity and happiness is contagious., the most successful people are those who have a happy, healthy and positive approach to life., they’ll inspire you – and you’ll inspire them right back. …Being good is good for the soul. …

7- Be kind

Helping others feels good. Studies have found that acts of kindness are linked to increased feelings of wellbeing. It helps keep things in perspective and It helps to make the world a happier place – one act of kindness can often lead to more!

8 – Workout

When you exercise, it increases endorphins, dopamine, adrenaline and endocannabinoid — these are all brain chemicals associated with feeling happy, feeling confident, feeling capable, feeling less anxiety and stress and even less physical pain.

I know it’s easy to say, but what about trying to be happier?? happiness is like a muscle more you train it stronger it becomes !!!
