Make any day more fun.
1. Branch out in new ways! Nothing saps fun faster than being stuck in a rut! Get on a happier path by mixing things up! Try a new coffee drink, visit a museum you’ve never been to or treat yourself to a new lipgloss or a manicure.
2. Bake up a better mood! The smell of freshly baked cookies is a powerful happiness booster, say researchers. Grab some refrigerated cookie dough at the market, and you’ll be grinning in no time!
3. Take a quick trip down Memory Lane! Do a Google search for your elementary school, your best friend in junior high, the author of an all-time favorite book or that TV show you were once crazy about and see where it takes you!
4. Time your snacks to blast stress! Too tired to enjoy life after a long day at work? Your blood sugar could be the culprit. Luckily, eating a healthy snack—like peanut butter and crackers or a piece fruit—half an hour before you leave work will boost your energy!
5. Make dinners memorable! Little things really do count! Especially when it comes to making everyday meals special Examples? Turn dinner into a fiesta by playing Mexican music and serving tacos. Or set out ice cream, jars of toppings arid whipped cream for a do-it- yourself sundae bar!
