Lifestyle Changes to Make You Feel Better

August 12, 2016

We all want to be happy, and there are many lifestyle changes you can make to boost your mood!

It feels good to be happy, but for some people, happiness isn’t so easy to come by. There are many factors that affect how happy you feel, and while some of them are completely out of your control, there are several lifestyle changes you can make that will make you feel better all around. The following is a list from our Santa Fe chiropractor of a few changes you can make to help yourself feel better:

#1. Exercise

When you exercise, your brain releases feel-good chemicals, called endorphins. Endorphins promote a sense of euphoria and can improve mood. Research has shown that exercise promotes long-term happiness too!

#2. Get Outside

The great outdoors can do wonders for your mood! Low levels of vitamin D are associated with depression, and spending just 15 minutes a day outdoors can help you meet your vitamin D needs.

#3. Sleep

When you don’t get enough sleep, you simply don’t feel as well. In fact, studies have shown that a lack of sleep actually lowers your ability to be optimistic. Make quality sleep a priority in your life!

#4. Eat Healthy

Your diet actually plays a huge role in your sense of well-being. Research has shown that people who eat at least seven portions of vegetables and fruits every day are also the happiest.

#5. Reduce Stress

Chronic stress can lead to a whole host of health problems, including anxiety and depression. Find healthy ways to deal with your stress, like practicing yoga or getting a massage.

The bottom line is that, when you take good care of yourself, you feel a whole lot better. Take the first step to feeling better by scheduling your appointment with our chiropractor in Santa Fe online today!
