Down in the Dumbs? Boost your Mood!


Boost my mood? How?
 
Easy: 

Have chocolates
Although sweet and rich, you may eat dark chocolate without any guilt feelings. The health benefits of dark chocolates are that it lowers blood pressure, increases the blood flow and assists the ‘good’ cholesterol. But, please only moderate portions per day, ladies but it will do wonders for your mood.

Aromatherapy is good for you
Aromatherapy seems to be good for you. Studies show that breathing in natural perfumed scents can lift mood, like lavender which is my favorite. So, indulge in some aromatherapy. Spray lavender water on your pillow tonight. Sweet dreams!

Send all your kisses for him or her
In your hectic daily schedule stop with a peck here or there or even blowing kisses to your loved one. The secret is that you must give your loved one a really lingering kiss.

Not only will giving your sweetheart a good kiss burn calories, but that kiss also reduces stress, boost your immune system, and strengthen your bond with your loved one.

Treat yourself with a manicure
Those hands of yours are like busy bees. They fly over a computer keyboard, wield hammer and nails, tuck in the kids, hug your honey, scrub, brush, etc. Treat these little hard workers with a manicure. Like massage, a manicure involves contact with another person through touch, which not only makes you feel pampered, it may even improve self-esteem. Now that's a stress reliever.

Have a good laugh
No one will differ from me – laughter is good for you. Studies show that a good laugh decrease stress, boosts up your immunity, improves blood flow, and stabilizes blood pressure. A good laugh may even help keep blood sugar levels down and aid digestion.

Call a friend

Good friends are good for you. Whether you see them every day or once in a while, friends foster a sense of belonging, purpose, and self-worth. Friendship even keeps you on a mental high. So grab the phone and give your friend a call.
