How to live happily and enjoy life? The secret is revealed by an absolutely happy man John Jandai from Thailand at TEDx. My Intention: To live a stress-free life How to live and be happy

We all dream of living a happy life. However, incredible changes for the better happen only with our consent. We analyze 10 reasons that help move towards happiness.

“Very little is needed to make life happy. Everything is inside you, in your way of thinking.”Marcus Aurelius

"Most people are as happy as they want to be."Abraham Lincoln

1. Don't strive for perfection

Yes, friends, perfection is a vice that can destroy even the most incredible and daring undertakings in the bud.

And you need to accept it as a fact.

Striving for perfection is destructive. This reduces self-esteem, makes you feel unhappy. Being a perfectionist is much more difficult than just accepting yourself for who you are and enjoying life.

How to get rid of perfectionism and accept imperfection?

Stop believing in myths about perfection. Often books and films impose an ideal world in which the characters live. But in real life it's not all that perfect. As a result, constantly comparing yourself with the heroes of your dreams, you can fall into the illusion own imperfection. In fact, no illusory world exists. There is only you and your own world. Yes, maybe not perfect, but yours. In striving to be perfect, it's easy to lose yourself. It is helpful to remind ourselves of this simple fact.
It is enough to do well, not perfect. If you strive for perfection all the time, then most of the ideas will remain not embodied in projects. Books will not be completed, films will not be completed. And, it will remain just a desire. It is enough to leave everything at the level of "good" and move on.

2. Be yourself

Changing for the sake of others, conforming to someone else's opinion and completely ignoring yourself is a mistake that ultimately results in discontent and complexes. Being yourself is what you should strive for.

In order to start living a happy life, it is important to clearly understand this.

Be yourself, the rest of the roles are already taken.B.Show

How to learn to be yourself? Surround yourself with people and events that help with this.

Hang out with the right people. Spend more time with people who support your dreams, your values, and you. Or at least not criticized. Reduce your time with people who are always critical of you or who make you feel uncomfortable.
Expand your positive communication and go beyond your everyday life. Look for sources of information that support your endeavors, dreams and desires and influence your life in a positive way. Do what turns you on. people you've never met through books, movies, blogs, forums, music. People who share your views, emotions and positive attitude towards life. Stop wasting your time on those who constantly whine and complain. Save your energy.

3. Find something that inspires and energizes, gives a feeling of happiness

It is important to find time for those things from which you feel a surge of energy and inspiration. Even cute little things can make us incredibly happy, make us perk up and get a fresh portion.

How to do it?

Try something new or do something different from the usual. For example, eat a vegetarian dish for lunch if you are a meat eater. Listen to music you've never listened to. Go to the cinema or theater if you like to stay at home. The bottom line is to do things differently than usual. Make changes to your day. Expand your comfort zone. It's the little things like that that make happiness.
Remember what inspired you before and gave you a feeling of happiness. Does this hobby revive now as well as before? Does it still bring joy? Or maybe you should look for something more impressive and emotional?

4. Cultivate optimism in yourself

Pessimism can really limit life and lead it to a dead end. It may give the impression that there is no point in trying to do something and everything does not matter. Pessimism builds dense walls of doubt and more and more drags consciousness into the depths of anguish.

And if you do not pull yourself together in time and do not switch to an optimistic vision of the situation, depression will come. We urgently need to start living a happy life and act quickly.

What to do?

Ask yourself optimistic questions. It is better to start any incomprehensible / negative situation with positive questions to yourself and. Don't focus on negative sides rather find the positive seed and focus on it.
Start your morning on a positive note. As the morning begins, so does the day.

Tell yourself in the morning:
Happiness, it's time for us to get up!
So with happiness and get up,
Don't let yourself go!!!
Give him a big smile
And with happiness you will be in peace.
Happiness loves to smile at those
Who wants to confess
What in earthly life in love,
Intoxicated with every breath...
And does not want to see evil
Sowing the seeds of goodness

5. Take criticism calmly

This is very important for maintaining motivation and self-esteem. And that means a happy life.

The Inner Critic is one of the biggest obstacles standing in the way. If you make a mistake, and someone nearby also criticizes you, then a small thin inner voice, like a worm, can sharpen from the inside, constantly reminding you of failure. And in the end, it will drag you into the abyss of distrust of yourself and dissatisfaction with yourself.

In this case, it will be useful to master the skill of recognizing the inner critic. The main thing here is not to let him capture himself in a tenacious embrace.

What to do?

Say immediately: "Stop." When the inner critic is just beginning to distort your self-esteem, saying the word “Stop” out loud will stop this vicious cycle right away.
Give yourself time to realize how important this situation will be after a while.In fact, this method works great! One has only to move forward a little (for a couple of days, a week, a month) and imagine the same situation - the realization immediately comes that there are things more important.

6. Learn to say the word "no" when you feel it is necessary

In order to save your time and energy for more important things, you need to learn how to say "no" to unproductive things. Time is our most valuable resource. Energy is needed to turn dreams into action. So why waste your time and energy?

Now think How much time do you spend stupidly on social media?

What to do?

Decide where you want to direct your time and energy.. Choose what matters to you, what is a priority.
Don't be afraid to say no to what you don't like or don't like. Often, out of courtesy or a reluctance to cause inconvenience, we accept offers that are of no value to us. Or we do things we don't like just because we're embarrassed to say "no".

7. Learn to forgive and let go of the past

Do not cling to the past, live in the present and think about the future.

Forgiving isn't always easy. But it is for our own good. This is the only way to start living a happy life.

How to do it?

To tell myself that by forgiving someone, I will do it for my own benefit. Until you forgive the person, thoughts will return to the one who offended again and again.
The emotional connection persists and causes discomfort until you yourself cut this thread of resentment. When you forgive, the inner turmoil disappears and a pleasant feeling of release from the past takes its place.
Develop the habit of forgiving yourself. Not only forgive others, but also yourself. And this is a must! By forgiving yourself, instead of beating yourself up for what happened a week or 10 years ago, you make the habit of forgiveness more and more a natural part of you. And then it is much easier to forgive others.

8. Give happiness to others

Pleasant moments we create ourselves. And when we share with others, we multiply them many times over.

9. Be open to new ideas and never stop there.

You should always strive for the best, do not be afraid of change.

How to do it?

Change gradually. Changing everything at once is incredibly difficult. That is what stops it. As a rule, we always overestimate circumstances and situations and think that it is difficult to change or change something. But, if every day you make a small positive change in your life and get rid of unnecessary things (habits, negativity), then in the end, life gets better and acquires the meaning that you need. To make sure that there is always a chance to get the best, you just need to start changing something in yourself, in your life, and already today.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step.

Living is a way of manifesting your greatest purpose. It seems to me that when creating us, our Source had a plan for us to live happily and joyfully on Earth. When you are in a state of joy and happiness, you are fulfilling the intention of the Source. Your natural state - from which you were created - is a sense of well-being. This chapter is dedicated to helping you return to that natural state for you.

Anxiety is a sign of spiritual instability.
Thomas Merton

As long as we are sincerely convinced of the limitations of our possibilities and filled with anxiety and unhappiness, we lose faith. The one who truly believes in God has no right to worry about anything.
Paramahansa Yogananda

We are created from a Source where peace, harmony and joy reign. When you experience these emotions, you are at peace with everything around you. This was the intention of your creation, and this should be the focus of all your thoughts, feelings and actions. Being in a state of joy, you feel contentment and inspiration in all areas of your life. In short, releasing anxiety and stress is the path to reconnecting with the field of intention. In those moments of your life when you are happy and allow yourself to live a full and purposeful life, you are in complete harmony with the all-creating universal intelligence of intent.

A life filled with anxiety and stress, despondency and despair, is unnatural. Thoughts that lead to high blood pressure, nervousness, chronic discomfort, insomnia, frequent manifestations of anger and irritability disturb your natural state. Believe it or not, you have the ability to use your will to rid your life of stress and fill it with peace. You have the power of attraction, with which you can attract joy or disappointment into your life, or anxiety. When you are in harmony with the seven facets of intention, you gain access to the Source and the ability to receive everything you need from it to realize the intention to live a calm life without stress.

If a sense of well-being comes naturally to us, why do we experience it so often? The answer to this question will give you the key that opens the door to a peaceful life.

path of least resistance

You live in a universe that has the infinite potential for joy inherent in the process of creation. Your Source, which we call the universal mind of intent, loves you more than you can imagine. When you love yourself that much, you harmonize with the field of intention and take the path of least resistance. As long as there is even a grain of it in you, resistance will remain, so I encourage you to go the way where it is minimal.

The strength of resistance is predetermined by the nature of your thoughts. Thoughts that generate negative feelings are a source of resistance. erecting a barrier between your desires and your ability to fulfill them is resistance. You intend to live a quiet life free from stress and anxiety. You know what stress is in itself physical world does not exist that it is born only in the mind of man. Stressful thoughts are a form of resistance. These stressful and resisting thoughts should not be your usual reaction to the events that are happening. By taking the minimum resistance approach, you can make it yours. natural way response and gradually become a calm person who does not know stress and is free from ailments that occur in the body under the influence of stress. Stressful thoughts themselves resist your connection to the power of intention.

We live in a world that literally words advertises and promotes causes for concern. You have been taught that it is immoral to enjoy life in a world where there is so much suffering. You were convinced that it is impossible to live carefree in the conditions of an economic crisis, war, in the face of uncertainty, death or global catastrophes. Since such conditions have always existed and will always exist, you believe that you have no right to rejoice, and yet you can remain a good man. But it may not occur to you that in a Universe that is built on energy and the law of attraction, the thoughts that give rise to negative feelings are born in the same energy Source that attracts like to like. And more flows into your life negative feelings and thoughts.

Here are some examples of thoughts that create resistance, which are then transformed into thoughts that follow the path of least resistance:

I'm worried about the economic situation; I've already lost so much money.

I live in an abundant universe; I prefer to think about what I have and feel great. The universe will provide me with everything.

I have so many worries that I can't do anything.

I live in the present. I only think about what I'm doing at the moment. I have peaceful thoughts.

I have no prospects for this job.

I prefer to appreciate what I am doing now and will attract even better opportunities.

I am very concerned about my health. I am afraid that in my old age I will become sick and dependent.

I am healthy, and so are my thoughts. I live in the universe that gave me good health, and refuse to live in anticipation of disease.

I worry and fear for my family members.

I choose thoughts that make me feel better and that will help me support my family if they are in trouble.

I have no right to rejoice when so many people suffer.

Each person has their own experiences, and they do not have to be identical. If I feel good, I will help to rid the world of some of the suffering.

I can't be happy when someone I love loves another and leaves me.

Negative emotions will not improve the situation. I believe that love will return to my life, I will live in harmony with the loving Source. I intend to focus on what I have, not what I lack.

All stressful thoughts are a form of resistance that you want to get rid of. Change those thoughts by paying attention to your feelings and prioritizing joy over anxiety, and you will gain access to the power of intention.

Realization of intention

Below is my ten-speed stress relief program.

Stage 1. Remember that your natural state is joy. You are the fruit of joy and love, and it is only natural for you to experience these feelings. You have come to believe that feeling unwell, anxiety, even depression is natural for you, especially when you are surrounded by low energy people and events. Remind yourself as often as possible: “I came here from a world of peace and joy. I must remain in harmony with my Source in order to fulfill my dreams and desires. I prefer to stay in my natural state. Whenever I am anxious, stressed, depressed, or I'm out of my natural state."

Stage 2. Stress is caused by your thoughts, not external circumstances. The stress responses in your body are activated by your thoughts. Negative thoughts create resistance to joy, happiness and abundance - all the things you want to achieve in your life. Such thoughts set you up to resist peace and relieve stress, thereby preventing the fulfillment of your desires.

Stage 3. You can change your thoughts at any time and get rid of anxiety for a few moments, hours or even days. By making a conscious decision to take your mind off your worries, you begin the process of releasing stress while reconnecting with the field of all-creating intention. You cannot be stressed and at the same time maintain a connection with the Source - these are two mutually exclusive concepts. The Source does not create in a state of anxiety and does not need antidepressants. By refusing to get rid of stressful thoughts, you deprive yourself of the ability to fulfill your desires.

Stage 4. Monitor your thoughts and emotions.

Ask yourself the main question: “Do I feel good now?” If the answer is no, then repeat five magic words: "I want to feel good," and then add: "I intend to feel good."

Observe your feelings and note how powerful your thoughts are causing stress and anxiety. This will allow you to keep track of whether you have turned off the path of least resistance.

Stage 5. Consciously choose the thought that makes you . In this matter, be guided by your emotions, and not by the feelings of the people around you. Ask yourself, “Does this new thought make me feel better? Not? Then what about this thought? Also no? Let's try another one." In the end, you will find a thought that makes you feel positive, at least for a while. It can be the thought of a beautiful sunset, a loved one, or some pleasant event. It is only important that you feel warmth from her.

In a moment of anxiety or stress, switch to a thought of your choice that makes you feel good. Think and feel it with your whole body. This new thought is the thought of love, beauty, responsiveness to happiness; in other words, it aligns perfectly with the seven facets of intention that I've been telling you about throughout this book.

Stage 6. Watch your little ones often and learn from them cheerfulness. You did not come into this world to suffer, worry, fear, stress, or depression. You have come from a world of joy. Look at small children. They do nothing to be happy. They don't work, they get their pants dirty, and they have no other purpose than to grow up and explore this wonderful world. They love everyone, they are able to seriously get carried away by an empty plastic bottle, they are constantly in a state of love - however, at the same time they have no teeth, hair, they are small and plump. Why are they so cheerful and everyone likes them so much? The fact is that they are in complete harmony with the Source that created them, and do not resist joy. Be like the child you once were - and be just as cheerful. You don't need a reason to be happy - just your desire is enough.

Stage 7. Don't forget about "rule number six".

Ignore ego demands that keep you away from intention. When faced with the choice of being right or being kind, choose kindness and don't indulge the demands of the ego. You come from kindness, and by choosing kindness over being right, you eliminate the possibility of stress. When someone annoys you, just tell yourself "Rule number six" and your fussy little ego that wants to always be the first, the fastest, the best, will make you laugh.

Stage 8. Accept guidance from the Source of Intention. You came into this world to know the Father, to become like Him. You can receive guidance from the field of intention only by becoming like it. Stress, anxiety and depression deprive you of the help of the force that created you. If she is able to create worlds out of nothing and she created you out of nothing, I think getting rid of stress seems to be not such a difficult task against this background. I am sure that God wants you not only to know joy, but to become it yourself.

Stage 9. Be silent and meditate. Nothing relieves stress, depression, anxiety, and all sorts of low-energy emotions better than silence and meditation.

Through meditation, you make conscious contact with your Source and clear the link to intention. Take time every day for silent self-contemplation and do meditation essential element your stress relief ritual.

Stage 10. Be grateful. Keep appreciating everything you have, everything you are, and everything you see around you. Gratitude is the tenth step of every ten step program of manifesting your intentions, because it is the most the right way stop the incessant inner monologue that takes you away from the joy and perfection of the Source. You can't be stressed and grateful at the same time.

Our modern culture can sometimes seem like a confusing mess. If you're tired of the extremes that our media seems to induce in us and are looking for something more stable and satisfying, then you can find that true happiness (and wikiHow can help you with that!).

Steps

Part 1

Self love

Accept yourself for who you are. Accept yourself for who you are, because you are already amazing! You can, of course, change as a person, but you should never feel that something is wrong with you now. Stop demanding perfection and accept your flaws!

Strengthen your self-confidence. It will be easier for you to achieve what you want if you have the confidence you need to get what you want. Build self-confidence so you feel better and take life by the horns.

Boost your self-esteem. Learn to love yourself and take care of yourself. This is one of the most important aspects of a happy life. Even if you have very few material possessions, you can still be happy if you love yourself and are happy with who you are and where you are. Remember how wonderful you are and how much you have achieved and don't forget all the things you are going to achieve. Accept your shortcomings and don't try to equate yourself to an unattainable standard of perfection. Nobody's perfect!

Change for yourself. Never change for anyone but yourself. If you have what to you don't like about yourself, just because you don't like it, you can always work on changing. But if people give you conditions under which they will like you, then you in fact they will never like you, and you will not be able to change anyone. It is very difficult for people to change, and you can only do it if you really, really want to.

Ignore the haters. Haters will hate. There will always be people who are just so miserable in their own life that feel the need to pick on you. But do not let the wretchedness of their minds annoy you or make you doubt yourself. Basically, they are failures and not worth your time. Ignore them and hope that someday their lives will be happier.

Give yourself what you need. Do what brings you pleasure. Allow yourself something special from time to time. Focus on your physical, spiritual and emotional sides. You don't need to be too focused on one and not pay attention to others. Try to figure out what makes you happy and do it!

Part 2

Respect people. When you respect others and treat them the way you would like to be treated, they in turn treat you better, and you end up feeling more satisfied with yourself. Remember: people are social creatures. We need each other to survive and be happy. Don't push people away by being unworthy.

Give as much as you receive. In your relationships, whether friendly or romantic, you should give as much of your attention to others as you ask for them. You will only get out of a relationship what you are willing to put into it. Love people, make sacrifices, work for the good of all and don't be selfish.
- However, be able to recognize when someone treats you badly. If someone behaves in a way that is disrespectful to you, such as insulting you or hurting you, cut that person out of your life. It will only destroy your happiness.
Help others. One of the most wonderful feelings of spiritual fulfillment comes from helping other people in something significant, tangible. If you want to increase your own happiness, try to help others. Make it your goal to be more useful people in your life, and you can also do something like volunteering in your community.

Rejoice in accomplishments. Don't envy people. This only leads to dissatisfaction. Instead, be happy for people when they are doing well! Be genuinely happy for them and try to live in empathy or learn from other people's success rather than allowing yourself to think they never deserved it and you never get any good.

Accept imperfections. All people are different and absolutely every person on Earth has flaws. If you focus on someone's faults and let that make you angry or unhappy, it will only make things worse for everyone. Accept the idea that these differences make life more interesting and move on with your life.

Communicate. Communication is the key to social happiness. When someone hurts you or lets you down, it's usually because of a misunderstanding. When you feel ignored, or when your friendships suffer, it's all because there isn't enough communication with that person. Always try to talk to people more and encourage more open, sincere dialogue.

Part 3

Enjoy what you do

Open up to new experiences. If you want to find your career path, then a good first step is to find out what makes you happy. But sometimes we don't know what makes us truly happy because we've never tried it before. Open up to new experiences and you may surprise yourself.

Analyze why you like what you do. Identify activities that you enjoy and what exactly you find so exciting about it. Break it down into key elements. Not everyone can be anything like a rock star or famous artist, but there is more than one job that will allow you to enjoy your most interesting aspect.

For example, if you want to be a rock star, is it because you love being the center of attention? Perhaps because you like to create something new? Or maybe because you love listening to music? There are more attainable careers that allow you to do all of this.

Follow this passion. Once you've identified what specifically makes you happy and fulfilled, follow that passion until you have a career that focuses on it. If you're doing work that caters to your passion, then you'll wake up willingly every morning and won't feel terrible about going to bed at night.

Keep moving forward. Keep going, keep making your way, and never, never give up. Keep setting new goals for yourself. When you stop working on being better, at that very moment you will become dissatisfied and you will become bored.

Part 4

Acquire a new skill. Make the most of your life by learning to do things that you love and can be proud of. Everyone has something they would like to learn how to do. You are alive... so why don't you do it? Take your time and do what you want to do.

Spend time outdoors. Get out of the house. When we spend too much time indoors, we start to feel trapped in our repetitive lives. We also tend to forget how amazing our world is. Did you know that there is a tree in Utah that is 80,000 years old? Or that a white whale has a heart the size of a minivan? Experience a sense of wonder at the natural world instead of exhausting yourself.

Exercise more. Forget about wanting to lose weight and be sexy - it doesn't matter. What is important is that you feel healthy and strong and acquire habits that will lead you to a long life. When you're out of shape or sick, you can feel absolutely terrible throughout the day, but once you start getting in shape, you'll be surprised at how much better you feel.

Travel anywhere. Traveling will open you up to a wealth of experiences and people that you would never even know about if you sat at home on the Internet all day long. Get out of the house and go to different places, even if they are not very far from you. Dive into touring your local attractions for an even more incredible experience.

Take risks. If you follow a safe and unchanging lifestyle, you will never have anything truly exciting and new. You can't wait for something amazing to just fall on your head, because it most likely will never happen. To get the real rewards in life, you have to take risks. Just be sure to weigh the risk and reward, and make sure it's worth it (but sometimes you just have to move that line a bit).

Part 5

Feed the joy, starve the sadness

Unhappy people tend to have completely confused priorities. Check yours. If you value your car more than your children, then you will live an unhappy life. One a wise man once said about material goods: "You can't take them with you."

Last but not least, take good care of yourself.
Always be yourself.
Don't make friends with people who don't like you, because that will only make things worse for you, always trying to impress that person.
Live full life. Never take anyone or anything for granted.
Live life with all your heart, because no matter how sad it may be, no one can be sure of tomorrow.
Treat people the way you would like to be treated. This will make you more satisfied with yourself. Believe me.
Whatever you do, it can be interesting. Whether you're doing your homework or cleaning the bathroom. Joke about it. If you think about it, homework can be interesting and funny.
Dance, and even if for some reason you don't succeed at all, you still can't dance and remain anxious.
Love others and you will be loved.

Warnings

Some people may get mad at you for being so happy and stress-free and try to fly in the ointment for you. Just remember that everything can be enjoyed. In other words, don't let this person get their way or you might end up just as sad and depressed as they are.
Take some things in life seriously. For example, if your friend is having a hard time, listen to them, don't just ignore the situation because it's sad. Try to cheer up your friend.

Research groups of scientists from Harvard and California Universities believe that happiness is a virus that lives by all laws. infectious disease. According to them, if there are friendly and smiling people around a person, then this attitude is transmitted to him. Specifically, a person's chance of becoming happy is increased by 25% if their best friend is happy.

“The more often we communicate with people who are satisfied with life, the higher our chances, if not for happiness, then at least for a positive mood,” says Olga Karabanova, Doctor of Psychology, Deputy Dean for scientific work Faculty of Psychology, Moscow State University.

But physiologists believe that happiness depends on hormones - endorphin, serotonin and dopamine. Serotonin eliminates depression, improves mental abilities, is useful for internal organs, arranges work gastrointestinal tract. But serotonin works in close conjunction with dopamine, the hormone of pleasure, and with GABA, which is responsible for the relaxation process.

The lack of even one of these substances affects the mood, depriving a person of a sense of happiness. To prevent this from happening, small adjustments can be made to the diet by increasing the doses of certain foods:

Serotonin- found in eggs, low-fat cheeses, poultry, avocados.
Dopamine- found in fruits and vegetables with vitamin C.
GABA- found in eggs, dark green vegetables, seeds, nuts, potatoes and bananas.

But happiness is not only in tasty and proper food, but also in a good mood, a positive outlook, the absence of stress, anxiety and worries, as well as in psychological and physical health.

How to learn to be happy?

Don't be jealous or compare yourself to others. It is very important to learn to be content with what you already have, appreciate it and enjoy it, without ceasing to strive for more. Other people's victories and blessings of life should not cause anger and irritation, but motivate and inspire. The desire to keep up with others is one of the main enemies of happiness.
Do not stop there and constantly set new goals for yourself, let them be both global, for example, build a house or visit an exotic country, and everyday, for example, pass a report or start going to fitness. Remember that becoming a doctor, raising a child, or making soup are all goals.
Don't regret anything. If something has already happened, then it cannot be changed. Thinking about what could be changed in the past is absolutely useless, it is better to concentrate on what can be done in the present and future.
Make your own decisions and take responsibility for them. No one knows what is best for you but you. Of course, advice is sometimes worth listening to, but try on your life only for yourself.
Learn to rest After all, rest and pleasure are an important component of truly happy people. Do not sacrifice rest for the sake of work or money - there will always be a lot of the first, and few of the second. Try to organize regular vacations with a rich program for yourself, do not forget about daily rest, which includes not only sleep and leisure, but also the banal “doing nothing”.
Learn to forgive and forget insults. After all, keep negative emotions in oneself is the same as drinking poison, but thinking that it will poison someone else.
Go in for sports, fitness, do gymnastics regularly, or at least just walk a lot. It has been proven that during physical activity the brain absorbs more oxygen, and the body produces “hormones of joy” (dopamine, serotonin), which increase mood for at least 4 hours.
Watch your health, because any disease is a feeling of poor health and a breakdown, and it is much easier to prevent it than to spend energy, time and money on treatment.
Eat Right try to learn to avoid harmful products, for example, fast food, but at the same time enjoy food. No diet has yet made a person happy, but a delicious dinner may well improve your mood.
Learn to love yourself every day, respect and appreciate, thus balancing healthy egoism with correct self-criticism.
smile even if there is no one to smile at. Physiologists call a smile a good mood button, a joyful facial expression relieves muscle clamps and stimulates the parts of the brain responsible for a good mood.
Surround yourself with positivity- positive books, films, beautiful things, such as flowers, photographs or dishes, listen to good cheerful music.
