你幸福吗?简单10招提升生活幸福感

1. Get out in nature
1. 接近自然

You probably seriously underestimate how important this is. (Actually, there’s research that says you do.) Being in nature reduces stress, makes you more creative, improves your memory and may even make you a better person.
你也许会低估接近自然到底多么重要(实际上研究也证明人人往往会低估)。身处自然之中,压力会减少,人也会更具创造力,记忆力提高,变得更好。

2. Exercise
2. 锻炼

We all know how important this is, but few people do it consistently. Other than health benefits too numerous to mention, exercise makes you smarter, happier, improves sleep, increases libido and makes you feel better about your body. A Harvard study that has tracked a group of men for more than 70 years identified it as one of the secrets to a good life.
我们都知道这很重要,但是很少有人能坚持做下来。不提那些无数对健康有益的方面,锻炼还会让你更聪明更开心,提高睡眠质量,提高生命力,让你精神焕发。哈佛的研究表明,很多活到70岁以上的人们都把锻炼看成健康生活的秘诀之一。

3. Spend time with friends and family
3. 和家人朋友共处时光

Harvard happiness expert Daniel Gilbert identified this as one of the biggest sources of happiness in our lives. Relationships are worth more than you think (approximately an extra $131,232 a year.) Not feeling socially connected can make you stupider and kill you. Loneliness can lead to heart attack, stroke and diabetes.
哈佛幸福研究专家Daniel Gilibert发现生活中最大的幸福来源于和家人朋友共处时光。人际关系比你想象中要重要的多(能增加每年13万1232美金的收入)。“与世隔绝”会让人变傻和发疯。孤单还会导致心脏病,哮喘以及糖尿病。

The longest lived people on the planet all place a strong emphasis on social engagement and good relationships are more important to a long life than even exercise. Friends are key toimproving your life. Share good news and enthusiatically respond when others share good news with you to improve your relationships. Want to instantly be happier? Dosomething kind for them.
地球上长寿的人们往往都会强调社交和良好人际关系的重要性,这甚至比锻炼身体更加重要。朋友们是大大改善你生活的关键。当别人与你分享好消息时,别忘了热情的加以回馈,这能提高你的人际关系,想一直都开心么?对朋友家人好点吧。

4. Express gratitude
4. 表达感激之情

It will make you happier.
这会让你更开心。

It will improve your relationships.
这会提升你的人际关系。

It can make you a better person.
这会让你更加优秀。

It can make life better for everyone around you.
这也会让你周围的人过得更好。

5. Meditate
5. 冥想

Meditation can increase happiness, meaning in life, social support and attention span while reducing anger, anxiety, depression and fatigue. Along similar lines, prayer can make you feel better — even if you’re not religious.
冥想能提升幸福感,生命的意义,社会支持以及注意广度,同时减少愤怒,焦虑,抑郁以及疲惫。即使你不信教,祈祷也会让你感觉更好。
