Huffington Post´s article about how you can increase your happiness by doing a few simple things is a good read. However, I do find the tips in the article are great pointers toward living a fuller life, including happiness.
Here are the steps mentioned in the article for increasing your happiness:
- Exercise more - 7 minutes might be enough
- Sleep more - you'll be less sensitive to negative emotions
- Move closer to work - a short commute is worth more than a big house
- Spend time with friends and family - don't regret it on your deathbed
- Go outside - happiness is maximized at 13.9°C
- Help others - 100 hours a year is the magical number
- Practice smiling - it can alleviate pain
- Plan a trip - but don't take one
- Meditate - rewire your brain for happiness
- Practice gratitude - increase both happiness and life satisfaction
