Blog by Candis & Daphne: Why You Need to Think About These 5 Things

It's normal if you're feeling down at a certain point in your life, but there is in fact of a formula for a happy life. You can enjoy every day and wake up in the morning feeling positive and fresh. We like to put ourselves to sleep with a good mood, so that we wake up worry-free (or at least with less to think about). That's one habit we like to do! You don't have to follow what we do. Instead, use our advices as guidelines to make your own routine. All you need to do is follow a simple, basic formula that's not even difficult to achieve. All it takes is a few simple steps and your willingness to help you live a happier, healthier life.

Here are some things to think about to achieve a happier life.

1. Think about: The outside

In order to give yourself the best chance of happiness, start with making sure what you're putting into your body is right for it and of course, healthy. When you eat unhealthy food, chances are you get easily depressed, tired, and lazy. So, by working on giving your body the right nutrients and fuel it needs to run properly, you will really start to feel the difference. And even start to feel happier too. Same with exercising regularly, it might make you lazy in the morning, but it will surely make you feel good after!

2. Think about: The inside

Next, you need to figure out the root cause of what could be holding you back from happiness. Ask yourself some difficult questions and then do difficult things to solve it. It can sound scary, but once you point out the main causes of your unhappiness, you'll know what you need to do next. Stripping off something that gives so much weight can help you feel light again.

3. Think about: The things you love

Surround yourself with people, hobbies, and things that really give you a positive energy. It could be as simple as just chilling by the pool with your friends, reading a book at your favorite cafe, or cooking a meal for your family. When you have a bad day, just thinking of these happy memories will put a smile on your face.

4. Think about: The moment

Thinking ahead too far in the future can cause unnecessary stress and worry. Whilst planning towards your future is good, try to live in the moment more. It will allow you to relax and enjoy the right here and the right now. Sometimes we tend to miss the little things in our everyday life because we won't let ourselves see them. But they could, in fact, bring us a lot of happiness.

5. Think about: The unknown

Breaking out of your comfort zone can be scary, but it can also do the most amazing things for you. By allowing yourself to say yes to things you usually wouldn't, you'll be opening yourself up to a new world you never knew existed. New experiences mean new memories, and they are always something you can look back and smile on. Don't be afraid to try something new, you never know, you might actually enjoy it.
