 There are thousands of tips and psychologicaltechniques to help you feel happy and learn to rejoice each day. But what if our own body had a say in thematter? Here are some findings from neuroscientists— the people who know exactly when and why your brain can give you the feeling of totalsatisfaction! The first tip is our favorite – it’s helpfuland very easy-to-do.

 #8. Engage in pleasant expectationsThe process of waiting for something nice, such as food or sex, is similar to the learnedsalivation response. Our brain experiences pleasure by simply anticipatingthe fun event. That’s why we’re so fond of counting thehours and minutes to some particular moment — be it a birthday or a wedding, a meetingwith a friend, or just an end to a long working day. 

#7. Solve problems one at a timeOur brain never stops searching for solutions to every problem that worries us. This takes a lot of energy, so whenever thebrain gets tired, and the problem remains unresolved we feel anxiety and irritation. On the other hand, for every right decision,our brain rewards itself with a dose of neurotransmitters that calm the limbic system and help us onceagain see the world in a better light. Therefore, you need to try to deal with oneproblem at a time. 

#6. Don’t keep things pent up: talk about whatbothers you The processes of wordlessly going throughsomething unpleasant and talking about your predicament involve making use of differentparts of the brain. In the latter case, negative emotions havea lesser impact on your well-being. It is, therefore, advisable not to keep yourproblems pent up. Whenever you talk about them, your brain triggersthe production of serotonin and even manages to find some positive sides to the situation.

 #5. Touch and embraceTo us, humans, social interaction is important. Various forms of physical support, especiallytouch and embraces, can speed up a person’s recovery from an illness. If you remove physical interaction from yourlife, the brain perceives its absence the way it perceives physical pain: the same brainzones become activated in both instances. This, in turn, triggers the processes thataffect your mood and contribute to the development of depression. 

#4. Learn, learn, and, once again, learn! For the brain, acquiring new knowledge meanspermanent adaptation to a changing environment. Using this process, our brain develops, rewardingits own attempts to absorb and process new information with dopamine, the hormone ofjoy. If you want to be happy, don’t be afraidto try something new, to change your surroundings, to learn new things. 

#3. Play sports Physical activity is stress for the body. As soon as the stress ends, your body getsa reward: a dose of endorphins, released by the pituitary gland. The effect is similar to that of opiates (e.g.,morphine), which reduces pain and elevate the mood. You don’t need to run marathons to achievethis result — even a regular walk can do wonders! Incidentally, many writers and composers considertaking walks an indispensable part of the creative process.

 #2. Always try to get a good sleepStart using a sleep mask. As long as your brain thinks it's nighttime,it keeps on sleeping. While we sleep in the dark, our body secretesthe hormone melatonin. This hormone slows down all processes in thebody, helping it to recover and increasing the level of serotonin in the hypothalamus. If the brain detects a change in lighting,it triggers the release of the stress hormone to awaken the body quickly. Therefore, it is important to sleep 6-8 hoursa day and only in darkened environments.

 #1. Learn to say "Thank you"When we say a person, or even fate, for something, we focus ourselves on the positive aspectsof life.
