To live happier means to be healthier<\/h3>\n

Normally we share many tips and recipes for living a healthy life\u2026 but happiness also has to do with health. Multiple research<\/a> shows that happy people live healthier<\/strong> and vice versa, as the health and welfare provide us happiness. Therefore, we share our 10 tips to be happy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

1. Create a life vision that excites you <\/a><\/strong>
\n<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Have a goal, know where you are going and move forward in that direction.<\/p>\n

<\/h5>\n
2. Create a plan for success <\/a><\/strong><\/strong>
\n<\/strong><\/h5>\n

For any great project either personal or professional we need a plan of action. Write it down.<\/p>\n

3. Create positive self-talk <\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>
\n<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Think positive. Don\u2019t think about what you CAN\u2019T do, but about all the things that you CAN do.<\/p>\n

4. Select healthy food and learn to cook <\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>
\n<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Get rid of the poor quality food you already have in your kitchen. Read labels before you buy and stay away from anything and everything with a high concentration of sugar.<\/p>\n

5. Slow down when you eat <\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>
\n<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Eating slowly and appreciating the textures and tastes is not just meditative, it increases the efficiency of the digestive system.<\/p>\n

\"keep<\/p>\n

6. Do something physical everyday day <\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>
\n<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Physical activity not only balances dietary intake but reduces stress by increasing endorphins<\/a>, also known as \u201chappiness hormone<\/strong>\u201c.<\/p>\n

\"sport<\/p>\n

7. Make time to meditate <\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>
\n<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Find a quiet place every day to just sit, relax and think of nothing. Trouble turning off brain chatter? Try repeating a mantra \u2013 Kenneth Prange suggests something like: \u201cI am grateful for all the wonderful things in my life. I have no complaints.\u201d Or, try visualize yourself in a wonderful relaxing environment surrounded by nature.<\/p>\n

8. Unplug often <\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>
\n<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Think energy conservation but also electronic magnetic energy. Turn off your cell phone when you don\u2019t need it.<\/p>\n

\"unplugged\"<\/p>\n

9. Spend time in nature <\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>
\n<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Sit in your garden or under a tree in a nearby park. Listen to the sounds, feel the wind on your skin, smell the flowers\u2026<\/p>\n

10. Create a healthy home <\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>
\n<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Repair things instead of simply replacing. Oil a squeaky door, fix a leak, get rid of whatever is useless or unused.<\/p>\n

\"healthy<\/p>\n

And as a bonus\u2026<\/p>\n

11. Have fun! <\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>
\n<\/strong><\/h5>\n

The main reason for creating health is to make life more enjoyable so take the time to schedule things that make you happy!<\/p>\n
