HAPPINESS - 4 HARMONES

*Donot Miss This Article...*  *4 Hormones* which determine a *human's happiness.*  Worth reading 

As I sat in the park *after* my *morning walk,*

My wife came and slumped next to me. *She had completed* her 30-minute jog. *We chatted* for a while. She said *she is not happy* in life. I looked up at her sheer disbelief since she seemed to have the best of everything in life.

*"Why do you think so?"*   (CONTINUED)  >>>>

"I don't know. Everyone tells I have everything needed, *but I am not happy.*

"Then I questioned myself, *am I happy?  "No,"* was my inner voice reply.

Now, that was an *eye-opener for me.*

I began my quest to *understand the real cause* of my *unhappiness,*

I couldn't find one.

I dug deeper, *read articles,* spoke to life coaches but nothing made sense. 

*At last my doctor* friend gave me the answer which put all my questions and doubts to rest.

*I implemented* those and will say I am *a lot happier person.*

She said, *there are four hormones* which determine a *human's happiness -*

1. *Endorphins,*

2. *Dopamine,*

3. *Serotonin,*

and 

4. *Oxytocin.*

It is important we *understand these hormones,*

as we *need all four* of them *to stay happy.*

Let's look at the *first hormone* the *Endorphins.*

*When we exercise, the body releases Endorphins.*

This hormone helps the body cope with the pain of exercising. We then *enjoy exercising* because these Endorphins will make us happy.

*Laughter is* another good way of *generating Endorphins.*

We need to spend *30 minutes exercising* every day, read or *watch funny stuff* to get our day's dose of Endorphins.

*The second hormone is Dopamine.*

In our journey of life, we accomplish many *little and big tasks, it releases* various levels of *Dopamine.*

*When we get appreciated for our work at the office or at home,* we feel accomplished and good, that is *because it releases Dopamine.*

This also explains *why* most *housewives* are *unhappy* since they *rarely* get *acknowledged* or appreciated *for their work.* Once, we join work, we *buy* a car, a house, the latest gadgets, a *new house* so forth. In each instance, it *releases Dopamine* and we become happy.

Now, do we realize why we become happy when we shop?

*The third hormone Serotonin* is released when we *act in a way that benefits others.*

When we transcend ourselves and give back to others or *to nature or to the society, it releases Serotonin.* Even,

providing useful information on the internet like *writing information* blogs, answering peoples questions on Quora or *Facebook groups will generate Serotonin.*

That is *because* we will use our *precious time to help other* people via our answers or articles.

*The final hormone is Oxytocin,*

is released *when* we become *close to other human* beings. 

When we *hug our friends* or family *Oxytocin is released.*

The *"Jadoo Ki Jhappi"* from Munnabhai *does really work.*

Similarly, when we *shake hands* or put our *arms around* someone's shoulders, various amounts of *Oxytocin is released.*

So, it is simple, we have to *exercise every day* to get *Endorphins,*

we have to *accomplish* little *goals* and get *Dopamine,*

we *need to* be *nice* to others to *get  Serotonin* and 

finally *hug our kids,*

friends, and families to *get Oxytocin* and we will *be happy.* 

*When we are happy, we can deal* with our challenges and *problems better.*

Now, we can understand *why we need to hug a child who has a bad mood.*

So to.

*make your child* more and more *happy* day by day ...

1.*Motivate him to play* on the ground

*-Endorphins*

2. *Appreciate your child* for his small big achievements 

*-Dopamine*

3. *inculcate sharing* habit through you to your child 

*-Serotonin*

4. *Hug* your child

*-Oxytocin*

*Have a Happy Life*.
