13. Exercise improves happiness
If you don’t exercise regularly, then start doing so as it has been proven that your happiness can be improved with just 25 minutes of regular exercise.[14] Your mood is instantly improved with the release of the feel good hormones serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine. You also become more resilient to stress when you exercise regularly. Stress has a huge impact on happiness.
Research has proven that exercise works for treating depression, as well as preventing it.[15] One study has found that individuals who exercise are happier because they feel better about their bodies.
What to do: Start exercising immediately, even if it’s once a week to begin with, and slowly establish a daily routine, or even every second day.
