On March 20, once again the whole world is ready to celebrate International Day of Happiness. A ‘index’ has been used to tell the level of happiness for the last decade. It is worth noting that happiness depends largely on our mental perspective. How the positive thinking increases our happiness, how deep the relationship between these two should be seen.
Meaning of ‘Happiness Day’
Nowadays, the trend of adding a question with every special ‘day’ has started- why only one day a year? Similarly, why Khushi Day is just one day? Everyone needs to be happy throughout the year. The matter is correct, but there is another aspect of it. A special day is selected for a formal event, so that people can stay a little and consider it seriously. Everyone wants to be happy, but it is very important to consider how true happiness is achieved. What is the most important factor to be happy in true sense?
By the way, this time also on International Happiness Day, the United Nations will organize many types of programs. Based on some parameters, countries around the world will also be ranked. In such a situation, everyone should personally find a formula to increase their happiness.
Do you get happiness from things?
This is a huge confusion. If you get happiness by gathering a lot of things, material resources, then by now the level of happiness across the world would have become quite high. If we talk only for the past 50 years, then every human’s standard of living has improved very fast. There is more than one means of comforts on the strength of scientific progress, but what could increase the level of happiness within these resources?
It is right that everyone needs some basic things for living, but as far as it is to be happy, it will be called a mental state. In any case, everyone can increase their happiness by getting used to positive thinking.
What does science say?
All the scientific facts about how our happiness increases with positive thinking increases. More and more positive thinking increases the level of dopamine and serotonin in the human body. Both of these are called ‘hormones of happiness’. Positive thinking these hormones are released in sufficient amounts, which makes you feel happy. Also, right thinking reduces the level of stress hormone cortisol, which reduces stress and anxiety.
It has also been found that the immune system of those who keep positive attitude is better, due to which they fall ill. Even when falling ill, they get recovered sooner than negative thinking. The body of such people protects itself from many diseases like cold, cold, cough, headache. Also, due to increasing psycho immunity, you get rid of anxiety, stress, depression, frustration etc.
The American Heart Association believes that positive thinking keeps blood pressure balanced and also reduces the risk of heart attack. The level of sleep of those who leave anxiety is also good, due to which they can remain more healthy.
Psychology of happiness
Understanding the psychological aspect of increasing happiness is no difficult task. There is no big secret in this. Everyone can feel it in their everyday life. Negative thinking keeps increasing mental stress, while positive thinking brings mental peace. Thinking in the right direction increases confidence, which helps to overcome the challenges of life.
In contrast, due to the wrong ways and habits of thinking, all kinds of confusion arise in the mind. Thinking of useless things also causes many mental illnesses. Therefore, it is very important to avoid such habits. Positive thinking should be placed in their place, which can help in achieving happiness.
Successful way of success
People have been seen achieving the biggest success with the help of positive thinking. Actually, it happens that keeping an optimistic attitude increases the ability of a human being. By keeping the thinking right, the solution to the difficulties in the path of success is also found soon. If the brain light burns, better ideas also start coming out. We have all heard the saying ‘cleverness of anxiety’.
Even if seen socially, then positive thinking has many benefits. Happy people have good relationships with others. People are easily attracted towards such a personality. It is natural to increase the level of happiness due to good relationships.
Acting roll
Psychologists even believe that if a person is filling himself with positive thoughts and just acting to be happy, then his happiness can really increase. The reason is that our brain is not able to differentiate between reality and imagination many times. He often does his work according to thinking. It makes it a habit by repeatedly acting of happiness. This habit is permanently turned into happiness.
This is exactly the same as if a person should be filled with anger again and again on a past. By doing this, many types of negative effects are sure on his body, even if that reason for anger is not present at the moment. So if you have to dodge your mind, then why not choose the acting to be happy!
Thousand reasons for being happy
There can be many reasons for a person to be happy, yet the attention of many people is only resting towards shortcomings and deprivation. This is called a victim of ‘missing tile syndrome’. There is a need to avoid this syndrome. It is possible to enjoy life only by avoiding such a feeling. Nature has entrusted so many names to humans, which is not possible for him to count the whole.
Everyone should do some small such things with positive thinking in daily life, which makes them feel happy. The list of such works may include helping a stranger, praising his family and colleagues with heart or speaking two words of sympathy to a unhappy person, bringing a smile on his face. Happy International Happiness Day!
