5 Easy Life Hacks To Get Happy Now

This day in age we are all stressed out and tired. Whether it’s demands from work or not enough sleep, that negativity can effect your mood all day long. Check out these super simple life hacks to get you in a better mood. If you have only a few seconds or an hour to spare, try them right now and watch as your mood is lifted.

1. Take a quick nap

If you get less than 7 hours of sleep a night, try to work in a post-work nap. Even just a few minutes of rest is reported to help boost memory. Don’t sleep too much though or else it will effect your sleep cycle.

2. Take a barefoot stroll through the grass

Remember how good this felt when you were a kid? Connect with nature even in the big city. It will help clear your mind, relax you and recharge you. Just be careful of the doggie business!

3. Get the aroma of coconut

Is there anything coconut oil can’t do? In addition to having numerous health benefits and smelling divine, coconut can be used as aromatherapy. It reportedly does things like lower blood pressure and decrease feelings of anxiety. Scoop a little coconut oil out into a mini plastic container and keep it in your desk.

4. Micro massage

Give your ear a light massage for 60 seconds a day. The pressure points reduce stress and stimulate your energy. Babies had it right!

5. Soak in the sun

Are you susceptible to that post-lunch itis or late afternoon slump? Head outside for a mini break and load up on vitamin D. Anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes in the sun will help boost your mood.
