Balance serotonin levels of the hormone was instrumental in avoiding someone from depression and useful in managing a positive mood. The more often you focus on gratitude, the more optimistic your brain will be in the future. Write at least three things that you are grateful for every day.
Doing good
Doing good can increase the hormone dopamine in your brain. In the brain, dopamine is involved in the process of thinking, learning, movement, motivation and satisfaction. In fact, something as simple as giving a smile or a compliment can make you feel happiness.
Laugh
