Increased Happiness

Raising your happiness through physical exertion and meditation. It raises your endorphins and creates clarity and focus. Feeling bogged down?? Then take action and see your physiology change!

Everyone is so caught up in I need more sleep, I need more sleep. In some cases that may be true. In reality though our physical bodies only need 4 to 5 hours of consistent sleep. The reason why we feel we need more sleep is cause we are active in the wrong ways. We have cluttered minds and stress of life that comes from school, work, family, finances, and bad choices. We can choose how we react to the outcomes of our life and it will change our stress level. We can do many exercises that lower our stress because of the outcomes that have occurred whether as consequences or conditions that we have no control over.

Getting up even a half hour early will actually give you more energy than sleeping that extra half hour. Yet it depends on the activity that you do... take the extra time to be ready for the day and not rushing out the door. Take the time to meditate and pray. Take the time to read a book. Take the time to write in your journal.

Why in the morning?? It is when our vibrations in our mind are alpha brain waves are strongest. As the day goes by our brain waves shift to beta waves and are stronger by night time. It is a great idea to meditate for 15 to 20 minutes in the afternoon also because it will help strengthen your alpha waves and give your increased energy. Alpha waves give you a sense of relaxation and energy.

So exercise and meditation are great ways to increase your endorphins and shift your brain waves.

The b side to the truth is more action means more energy! More energy means more happiness!
