Happiness comes from a variety of sources that trigger the release of happy chemicals like serotonin, dopamine, and endorphins in our brains and bodies. Some ways to increase these happy chemicals include eating carbohydrate-rich foods, spending time with friends, exercising, accomplishing goals, and engaging in enjoyable activities like hobbies, travel, and sex. While external factors can influence our happiness, we are ultimately responsible for identifying what makes us unhappy and taking steps like solving problems or changing our mindset to improve our overall well-being.
