#6. Now this one is absolutely fantastic…Hmmm!…Sing Your Heart Out, Don’t be Shy…let the rhythm & lyrics takeover your mind, body & soul !!!

Simple isn’t it! The science behind it is that singing releases “happiness hormones” such as “endorphins” (they are associated with feelings of pleasure!!!) & “oxytocin” which reduces anxiety and stress. Various Studies have also shown that singing also helps alleviate the feelings of loneliness and depression, resulting in being happy and in harmony with oneself.

Paint your walls, keep things…and let them be around you in front of your eyes, as much possible!!! Get that soothing comfort and the beautiful moments to relax!!!
#8. This one is really very very serious…Hmmm!…Set Some limits/restrictions When It Comes To Your “SmartPhone”!!!
Image
There is no doubt that Smartphones have become a significant way to engage with the world, stay connected and be in touch 24X7X365!!! But isn’t it a real pain, that we all carry with us in our heads, minds and body all the time!!! Besides…"Hey! Where the hell…have I kept my phone"!!!???...and all that ..."Hello"!..."Hello"!!..."Hello"!!!...OMG !!!
But, do you know that too much of smartphone use can cause concentration issues & poor sleep quality, eventually leading to obesity, depression, irritable behavior and addiction too!!!
Guess, we all are addicted to our smartphones, Now!!! 100% !!! We should get rid of this habit !!! I am literally trying !
So, now its high time to set some restrictions to ensure this relationship does not turn harmful. Make a move to Switch off your phone when you sleep at night, and when you wake up, try not reach out for it first thing in the morning, desperately !!! Though I really really know how hard it is!!! Smartphones have been human temptation with the each passing day!!! Put a hold! Yes, you can and only you can!!! Control !!! Curtail !!!
Instead when you wake up, do some stretches, set your own bed in order, walk, roam around the house, talk to family before you actually start replying to messages and emails and plunge back into the unknown whims & fancies of the virtual world. Learn, not to unnecessarily waste your precious time on the unwanted!!!
#9. If you have a love for writing…Hmmm!…Start Poetry!
Image
Tried, tested and practiced!!! Helps clear your head and organize your thoughts by writing down something positive, constructive or doing poetry!!!
There are situations, where you just like talking or sharing something stressful with a close/dear friend. Right!!!
Regular journaling strengthens immune cells, as per one Texas University study/research. As per Psychologists, writing about stressful events of one’s life, helps you deal with them in a better way and decreases the negative effects such stressors have on your health.
#10. Do you like Pets…Hmmm!…Keep one and see the difference!
Image
Research has shown that keeping and playing with the Pets helps reduce anxiety and feeling of loneliness. Their company makes you feel happy and decrease stress. Pets do give you a wonderful company, if you really keep them well and take good care of them and in return all these activities turn out to the stress busters!
#11. Stop/limit the intake of Junk Food…Hmmm!… Eat Healthy Diet…Eat Fresh Vegetables and Fresh Fruits!!!
Image
Eat Fresh fruits and fresh vegetables to stay healthy. We all very well know, Healthy body leads to healthy mind. Stop/reduce the intake of Junk food, reduce the uneasiness one gets after eating it and all those digestive upsets and eventually that unhealthy feeling or even guilt of eating that wasn't appropriate and healthy!!! Therefore Eat Healthy & Stay Happy & Healthy!!! That's the Gist of Life !!!
