THE BEST IS YET TO COME


You may have grown up hearing that your schooldays were likely to be the best days of your life, but research suggests that we’re actually at our happiest after the age of 70, reaching a peak of happiness in our 80s, which means that for many of us, the best is yet to come.


Five tips to boost your mood


Boosting your mood and helping yourself feel more positive is a great thing to do, no matter how tough life can be.


Here we highlight the top five tips on how to lift your spirits...


1. Smile When you smile, it triggers mood- boosting hormones in the brain. So even if you don’t feel happy, put a smile on your face and you may soon start to feel more positive.


2. Keep busy It doesn’t matter whether you tidy up the garden, wash the dishes or go for a walk — any activity that helps to break up your routine and gives you a sense of achievement will do the trick.


3. Talk to someone It doesn’t matter whether you meet up face to face, talk on the phone, chat online or use Skype, connecting with other people helps to bring you out of yourself.

4. Help others Research shows that helping other people will help to lift your mood. So do a favour for a friend, donate to charity or volunteer.


5. Live in the moment If you’re feeling low, try to regulate your breathing and pay attention to what you can see, hear and feel at the present moment. This will help you to feel calm and bring you back into emotional balance.
