3 Ways To Make Room For Happiness In Your Life

Living in a fast-paced world comes at a cost, as often, our days are filled with endless obligations and responsibilities. It can be hard to carve out time for ourselves. Feeling overworked, exhausted, and disconnected from your social and family life can be a major cause of unhappiness.

Today we’re going to outline some of the easiest ways you can unwind and find pockets of happiness amidst your busy day to live a more grounded and connected life.

• Permit yourself to say no to things that don’t bring you joy
  Do you ever feel like you're constantly saying yes to things that you don't want to do? When we say yes to too many things, it can zap our energy and leaves us less time from doing the things we enjoy. Today, try making decisions based on what brings you joy, say no to the dinner you’ve been dying to avoid, and learn to say no to requests when you already have a lot on your plate. It’s time to permit yourself to follow your heart’s desires.
• Spend some time outdoors soaking up the sun and fresh air
  Research has shown that people who spend more time outdoors report higher levels of health and happiness. Being in nature has a magical way of restoring our minds and bodies, leaving us feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. Dedicate time to take a break and surround your senses with a quiet soundscape to soothe your nervous system. For those living in the concrete jungle, finding respite can seem challenging at first, but there are always ways to be with nature.
  Our resort is located just two hours away from Jakarta on the beautiful coast of Anyer where you’ll get to enjoy the beautiful drive on your way. We invite you to unplug from your gadgets and disconnect to find yourself. Take a walk on our private Barefoot Beach and feel the breeze on your hair and relish the sunshine. Everyone could do with a good dose of vitamin sea.
• Eat good food to boost your mood
  There's nothing like good food to bring a smile to your face even when you’ve had a terrible day. Delicious meals not only evoke the senses but also make one happier. Treat yourself to the latest restaurant in town, whip up your favorite comfort food for dinner or make a trip to your go-to cafe for a nice cuppa—whatever suits your fancy. If you don’t treat yourself well, who is going to do it for you?
  We can’t change our hectic schedule but we can incorporate an hour or two to do the things we love no matter how short they are. This can range from taking a break during your work day, planning a vacation or simply making time each night for dinner with your family.
