My Get-Happy Formula

What makes you smile? Laugh? Go giddy with glee?
For some, it’s a walk barefoot through the grass. For another, it’s a spin on a roller coaster, a solo movie date, or a perfectly ripe mango.
So… when was the last time you did something that makes you happy?
If it’s been awhile, consider this: Happiness lowers stress levels, increases immune system
function, and lowers your risk of disease. It also makes life easier.
The Magic Formula for Daily Pleasure
Doing one pleasurable thing per day (or more!) is the most powerful antidote for gray, boring, or stressful days.
Try this:
- Make an “I love” list. List everything that you enjoy—nothing is too small or too large.If you enjoy it, get it on the list.
- Take a look at how you spend your days. When could you fit in a little pleasure?
Perhaps you could leave the office at lunch to walk in the park? Maybe you could
play your favorite music while doing the dishes? Book yourself a massage this
weekend? - Repeat daily—or more often, as needed.
