Hello good morning to all steemians in STEEM fashion & style. I can across an interesting debate topic HAPPINESS VS RICHES organized and published by @sahmie.
Many people do get confused about which is better, riches or happiness. This is because our society most time values material wealth over emotional well being. However, it's important to remember that money can't buy happiness. It is an interesting topic so I'll use this opportunity to invite my friend's @goodybest @ngoenyi and @preshy001 to participate in this contest.
In this contest I choose Happiness and I'm gonna highlight my view and the important of making happiness a priority.
Happiness is the true source of emotional wellbeing as it shows the feeling of contentment, joy and fulfillment. It's a positive emotional state that results from having good relationships, engaging in meaningful and activities that brings joy and satisfaction. Infact happiness connected the human overall health and well being aside from emotional.
Happiness can positively affect physical well-being. Happiness in most occasion do reduce stress, which can in turn improve physical health. Stress has a strong linkage to a lot of health problems such as, heart disease, high blood pressure, and diabetes (as study proves). happiness can improve sleep quality, which is another good factor the contribute to health.
Getting enough good quality sleep is crucial for maintaining individual physical health. happiness can improve exercise habits, when people are happy, they will more likely to make healthier choices about what they eat and how much time they will spend in exercise.
In overall a scientist by name Dr. Cohen's after research has shown that "people who are happy have higher levels of immune system proteins called cytokines, which help fight against infection". Another scientist Dr. Diener's after research has found that "people who are happy tend to live longer than those who are not".
The above views show how important happiness is, choosing happiness is much better compare to riches.

In conclusion, according to the above important/benefits stated happiness has numbers of advantages for emotional and physical health including a stronger immune system, good sleep. And from scientist research it proves that happiness contributes to a longer lifespan. Though Riches can be good as it make one own fancy and expensive material or live a luxurious lifestyle. But all this can said to be worthless if happiness is not involved.
Thank you all for your time.

You're absolutely right @jozzie90. Happiness has so many important benefits for our emotional and physical well-being. It's like a superpower for our health. When we're happy, our immune system gets stronger, and we enjoy better sleep. Plus, scientific research shows that happiness can even help us live longer. On the other hand, while having riches can allow us to buy fancy and expensive things or live a luxurious lifestyle, all of that can feel meaningless if we're not happy. Happiness is the key ingredient that truly makes our lives worthwhile. So, let's prioritize our happiness and enjoy all the amazing advantages it brings to our overall health and well-being.
Thanks very much @triple-a for your meaningful contribution, I really appreciate your effort ready and comprehends the whole article, love that.
Indeed, the connection between happiness and reduced stress is crucial, as stress is a significant contributor to various health issues. Emphasizing the positive effects of happiness on sleep quality further reinforces its importance in promoting overall health and wellness."
