Today's Topic... Being Happy!
Too often I feel that we do things, just to do them, even if these actions make us miserable. When you come right down to it, finding joy in your day and your daily endeavors is what leads to a rich and fulfilled life.
So today, I want to share one thing that you can use today and every day from here on out to instantly boost your mood. Purposeful Movement.
Purposeful Movement isn't just for fitness. It's an all-natural mood booster that can significantly improve your happiness factor.
Here's why:
1. Natural Mood Enhancer: Purposeful Movement stimulates your brain to produce more mood-enhancing hormones like serotonin and norepinephrine, which can help relieve feelings of depression, anxiety, and stress.
2. Endorphin Release: When you break a sweat, your body pumps out endorphins, which can help produce positive feelings and reduce the perception of pain.
3. Stress Reducer: It helps your brain cope better with stress by causing positive changes in the areas that regulate stress and anxiety. Plus, moving your muscles can help release tension that has been building up all day!
4. No Intensity Needed: You don’t need to run hill sprints or bench-press your body weight to get these benefits. It's not about how hard you push yourself; it's about moving and getting active.
👉 Even just a few minutes of purposeful movement can make a difference.
In fact, studies have shown regular exercisers who completely stopped their workouts had a significant increase in symptoms of depression and anxiety.
This shows that even short periods of physical inactivity can impact your mood.
