Give your day a happiness boost

Perk up your day 10: Pet your pet

If you’re the owner of a furry little friend, making time to simply sit with your pet can seriously boost your happiness. Every time you pet an animal, your body releases feel-good hormones such as oxytocin, prolactin and serotonin, and this leads to lower blood pressure, happiness and less anxiety. Sounds good to us!
