The Vedas talk about how our basic nature is one of “Satchidananda” or eternal bliss.

The Vedas talk about how our basic nature is one of “Satchidananda” or eternal bliss. By making small shifts in our daily choices and by being mindful of our conscious behavior, it is possible to improve our brain chemistry, and in turn feel better about ourselves and the world around us. Our feelings, (joy, and peace, grief, depression, anger) are all regulated by hormones and neurotransmitters.

Neurotransmitters are brain chemicals that communicate information between the brain and body. They relay signals between the neurons or nerve cells. These important chemicals interact with receptors located throughout the brain and the body to regulate a wide variety of processes including emotions, fear, pleasure, joy, anger, mood, and the perception of pain. Each one of the above chemicals can be activated and we can increase the production of these neurotransmitters by making minor alterations to our lifestyles.

It is a well-documented fact that activity of any kind increases the release of endorphins. You can choose to run, walk, do yoga or even dance to elevate the feel good factor. A sedentary lifestyle is one of the primary causes of depression. Spend time with loved ones, all these little interactions help in increasing the production of oxytocin.
Bask in sunlight, exposure to bright sunlight activates melatonin which in turn helps regulate sleep/waking rhythms and also aids in the production of serotonin. Eat carbohydrates, spicy foods, chocolate, nuts as all these have the ability to increase the number of happy hormones.

Pick a perfume of your choice and wear it, smells have a profound effect on feelings. Laugh and cry without inhibition, laughter is known to increase production of the happy hormone. When you feel the urge to have a good cry, do so. Smile even when you do not feel like smiling and the brain will be fooled into producing more of the feel good hormones.

Listen to music, the power of sound is immense. It can take you to the heights of ecstasy or the depths of despair. And Always Practice gratitude, the best prayer we can offer is to just be grateful for what life has given us. It fills us with a positivity which results in a flood of feel-good hormones.!
