Endorphin : The Chemicals that keep us Happy

Do you feel that you need a pick me up?


A Happiness boost?

I know there are many folks, including myself, writing about how Happiness is an inside job —and it is.  

What's an inside job? I think about inside jobs as mediation, which can help with an attitude adjustment; Yoga, walking in nature, exercise, and dancing (for Body support); and any self-discovery explorations that invite you to look at what your heart holds essential and what makes you happy (or not).

Over the past year, we've needed to rely on ourselves to fill our happiness cup more and more. And, I don't know about you, but no matter how hard I tried to keep myself well and happy, something was still missing.

Connecting to what makes us happy is a passionate topic for me, so I stared to read a bit about the chemicals that fill our happiness cup. I noticed how some chemicals I was accessing and others, not so much.

This month, I’m share with you a bit about chemicals that can help you Happiness cup filled up.

💕 Endorphin

Endorphin is often known as the runner's high because these hormones are released when pushed beyond your limits.

Besides exercise, you can also raise your Endorphin level by:

• laughing

• eating dark chocolate

• using essential oils on your body or with a diffuser.

When Endorphins release into your body, your stress decreases, and it will be easier to relax.

Think about a few different ways that you can activate this Happiness hormone each day.
