Being happy does not need to take forever! These 17 things you can do with 5 minutes per day can increase your happiness in a moment! Check them out below and radically change the way you feel daily.
1. Smile
It is okay to smile sometimes! Show your teeth and let the world know that you are in a happy place in your life.
2. Laugh
Humor is essential to living a healthy and prosperous life! Enjoy a good laugh and live freely the way life is meant to be.
3. Say hello to a stranger
Sure it may seem weird and a bit strange but when it comes down to it, saying hello to a stranger can not only make you more courageous and confident, it can also positively effect that other person. Not so keen on speaking up? A silent head nod or some form of acknowledgment that you recognize their existence can be life changing!
4. Recite a positive message to yourself in a mirror
Remind yourself as you look at yourself how capable and unique you are. Sometimes a little self-reminder is all we need to get us through the day.
5. Take in the view
Silently take in the things around you. Look outside and enjoy the view. From the architectural achievements of woman and mankind to the natural glory of flora and fauna and everything green, enjoy it for 5 minutes and relax.
6. Let someone else know how much you care
Let someone know how much you care by reminding them. A simple “good morning” text or an “I love you” to a partner or your children can do the trick.
7. Persuade your mind to see the beauty of things
Remind yourself how beautiful the world can actually be if you just push that pessimism aside and actually see the details.
8. Stretch
Stretching eases tension and makes you feel fresh and renewed! Stretch throughout the day.
9. Open a window and breath in fresh morning air
Breathe in that morning air! Enjoy the fresh morning dew- perhaps one of the best experiences I can say I have ever had in the morning.
10. Hug a loved one
Why? Because everyone likes hugs sometimes!
11. Listen to your favorite happy song
A perfect way to feel positive in 5 minutes or less.
12. Enjoy a little silent break
Enjoy a silent break when you can and sit for 5 minutes, no thoughts no nothing. Just be.
13. Buy some flowers
Flowers are pretty and smell good! They also enliven any room.
14. Ask a coworker you never really talked to how they are doing
Sometimes you might just find that this person just really needed someone to care and your small talk is a big help.
15. take a moment to be grateful
Be grateful for all that you have and all that you may receive.
16. Make a list of plans and goals for the day
Plan for the day and make a list of what you would like to accomplish.
