4 Small Things That Are Proven To Increase Your Mood

Not infrequently you have to go through the day even though it feels very heavy. Not to mention friends or girlfriends who seem difficult to understand your mood.

Even though it is confused, it does not mean that you are confined to a room all day. Instead of lamenting the fate, you better try the four things below which are proven to improve your mood.

1. Listen to your favorite songs
   
   Research shows that music can stimulate emotions through certain brain circuits. We can easily see how music and the brain involve mood and emotions, when you listen to your favorite songs and start dancing to the rhythm.

2. Do good things
   
   According to the Psychology Today page, doing all kinds of goodness to yourself and others can improve your mood.
   "When we do good things, indirectly it also trains the brain to always think positively," he explained.
   One easy way is to write down the good things you want to do. This way, you not only become more optimistic but also become more concerned with the people around you.

3. See the aquarium
   
   Maybe this sounds weird, but experts have proven that seeing an aquarium can make you feel more relaxed. A study by the National Marine Aquarium of the University of Plymouth and Exeter University, UK, even said watching swimming fish reduce blood pressure and improve your mood.

4. Sports
   
   If you ever run after a bad day, chances are you will feel better afterwards. The American Psychological Association explains this because exercise has a strong relationship with mood.
   "Usually five minutes after light exercise you can feel an increase in mood," he explained.
   In fact, research shows that exercise can also help relieve long-term depression.
