GooD STUFF To KnoW
Tips To improve your hAppiness
Places around the globe where people are “lightest of heart” have some insight into feeling happier.
1. Don’t complain (too much) about high taxes
Though you may grumble somewhat, do so only briefly. Denmark is a case in point; almost half of its annual budget goes towards levelling its residents’ “playing field.” Noted as one world’s wealthier nations per capita, it is ranked the highest for well-being. The Danes’ happiness is about satisfaction and living with good health care, public education and strong family support services.
2. Finish work at 5:00 pm and take all your holidays.
Studies claim that once income rises above $60,000 a year, more money does not = long-term happiness.
3. support walk-ways and bike lanes.
The “walkability “ and ease of getting around a city promotes health and well-being and healthier, happier people.
4. stay cozy in the colder months
The Danes have a strategy to deal with the shorter, winter days called “hygge” which means the “art of relaxing in a warm and cozy environment”. Make your home a comfy retreat from the outdoors. In Canada it’s know as “voluntary hibernation”.
5. say “no” to drive-through restaurants
Choosing alternatives to drive-throughs promotes healthier choices in all areas of your life.
6. Keep shopping hours to a minimum
Purchasing a new item may give you an “acquisition high” but it is usually short lived. Instead, limit shopping hours to free up more time to pursue more rewarding activities.
7. socialize
Chat with friends over a glass of wine - some happiness tips are obvious!
