Five actions to become a happier person

  • Daily physical activity

Physical activity, as simple as walking briskly or jogging for 30 minutes, can increase your happiness. It has even been shown that exercise can help patients recovering from depression.

  • The 20-minute replay

Scientific studies show that by writing for twenty minutes about a positive experience people can increase their happiness. How does it work? If you write about a positive experience, you actually relive it and the good emotions associated to it.

  • Random acts of kindness

If people carry out five random acts of kindness (such as paying for someone’s coffee or mowing the neighbor’s lawn), they can significantly improve their happiness.

  • Meditation

Regular meditation practice increases your levels of happiness by permanently rewiring your brain.

  • Gratitude

Every day write down three to five things you’re grateful for.
