Everyday isn’t the best day, but when that happens, we have the power to turn it all around. Happiness, or a state of well being brought about by enjoying or showing, pleasure, satisfaction or joy, is a choice. It’s our responsibility to shake off a bad mood and bring back the good vibes. Here’s some ideas to help improve your mood…

• Get a delicious Starbucks drink that probably has 12,000 calories. Feel no shame.

• Make a list of everything you’re grateful for to remember the great things in life.

• Read your favorite book novel, comic book, or story on the Internet. Read it slow and savor it.

• Go shopping online or at least window shop. Bookmark awesome stuff to get later.

• Turn off all your electronics and meditate. According to Stanford University, social media, or any acts that can be performed on a cellular device, often lead to sadness by showcasing the most witty, joyful, bullet-pointed versions of people’s lives, and inviting constant comparison, social media makes us see ourselves as losers.

• Listen to music that you really love. Sing to it as loudly as you want and as off-key as you want. Listening to music causes the brain to release dopamine, or the “feel-good” chemical.

• Go through Urban Dictionary and find some ridiculous but fun new words to add to your vocabulary.

• Notice where you hold the most tension in your body and let it go.

• Call someone you love. They can always put a smile on your face.

• Love yourself. University of California states that kindness makes people happy, so be kind to yourself.
