14 Little Habits That'll Make Your Life A Lot Happier
Stuck in a corporate rut? Sick to death with the
monotony of your surroundings? These little lifestyle habits are simple to adopt
and will really change the way you sail your boat.
1. Sleep should be right on top of your priority list.
Proper sleep can do wonders to your life. In fact, it has been scientifically
proven that 8 hours of sleep is a must for the human body and a lack of sleep
leads to stress and anxiety. Your days will become more productive with a
consistent sleep pattern.
2. A hot water bath
This is the best way to relax your body. It washes your worries temporarily
and helps bring a better thought process.
3. Take out some you time.
Every day, make it a point to spend some time with yourself. You can have a
walk, sit in a silent corner or take yourself out for lunch or coffee. It really
works and helps you introspect better.
4. Maintain a journal
Write down anything and everything. Studies have shown that writing is the
best way to vent. On the other hand, you can also maintain a happy journal
wherein you can make note of the good things that have happened to you.
Re-visiting these diaries will definitely make you happier.
5. Light a candle
Switch off the lights and light candles. Try lighting scented candles - they
bring a sense of calm and can help you relax at the end of a tiring day.
6. Give a lot of hugs
If you think this is inspired from Munna Bhai MBBS then you are absolutely
right. We believe in Jaddu ki Jhappis. Apparently a lot of skin contact
releases oxytocin which makes your mood better.
7. Walk around your work place
By walk, we dont mean working out. Just one quick round around the office
complex at any random time of the day can elevate your energy. It can enable
your mind to think better. If you feel bored at work, this is what you should
do.
8. Drink lots and lots of water
Your body needs it more than you think it does.
9. Buy flowers for yourself
Not for anyone else, but yourself. Flowers bring a lot of positivity.
10. Clean your room
Youll be surprised at how relaxing
cleaning can be. Some studies say that cleaning actually helps you sort your
mind and wipes away unnecessary thoughts.
11. Watch an old favourite movie
A movie marathon or even replaying your favourite scene can really change
your mood. Try it right away.
12. Turn your surroundings into your comfort place
Buy funky bed sheets, get a bulletin board or make a reading corner for
yourself. Define a place in your house that is your feel-good space. This is the
best gift you can give yourself.
13. Make everything yellow
Yellow is the colour of sunshine, new beginnings and freshness. Paint
yourself a yellow corner or just buy a cute yellow coloured teddy bear. Winnie
The Pooh is a great start!
14. Reread a childrens book.
Re-reading a book that you read
while growing up is really a treat. You take a lot more from it than you did in
your teenage years. Instant happiness!
