Happy International Day of Happiness! Genes determine 50 percent of your happiness, while circumstances account for 10 percent. That leaves 40 percent up to you, studies show.

Nature is one of our biggest sources of joy, says Ingrid Fetell Lee, the author of “Joyful: The Surprising Power of Ordinary Things to Create Extraordinary Happiness.” So take a walk outside every day or head to a park. Going into nature actually changes how your brain works: It reduces stress levels and boosts well-being.

| Even when we know people’s names, why do we go for days without using them? By using someone’s name, you help them feel seen and acknowledged — and that’s an act of kindness. According to kindness.org’s research in collaboration with the University of Oxford, doing a kind act increases happiness, well-being, trust and compassion. And it can have the same powerful effect on those who receive the act. Try it, and put a smile on both your faces. |
