366 ways to be happy

“Happiness is a choice. You can choose to be happy. There’s going to be stress in life, but it’s your choice whether you let it affect you or not.” — Valerie Bertinelli

Do these things to be happy:

  • Meditate. This one is huge. Meditating for five to ten minutes upon waking is simple and has immediate benefits including heightened inner clarity and focus for the rest of the day. Starting your day with meditation also sets positive intention, allowing you to detach from habitual thought barriers and keep you in the moment. Studies also show that meditation helps prevent stress and anxiety, thus squashing frustrations that limit your ability to tackle your goals. These five techniques will help you discover the meditation style perfect for you.
  • Learn something new. While taking on new challenges may sound counterintuitive to creating happiness, learning something new boosts your well-being. Focusing on making progress puts us in a state of flow, which has been shown to foster happiness. Learning also builds your self –  and keeps you sharp. It has never been easier to expand your mind with so many free online courses. If getting active is your goal, check out the free classes offered through your local recreation center. Meetup.com is also great place to start!
  • Journal. Though this tip can appear unrealistic for many, it doesn’t have to be a big production. Simply commit to writing just 50-words at least three times a week about anything. You’ll be surprised how far this small goal will take you. From stretching your IQ and creating midfullness to boosting your self-confidence, forming this simple daily habit effectuates a myriad of mental and emotional benefits.
