Would you like to improve your mind-body health?
Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that affects mood, anxiety, and happiness. Low serotonin levels in the brain are thought to contribute to depression. Activities that can increase serotonin levels include:
- Physical activity releases tryptophan, an amino acid that the brain uses to make serotonin. Regular exercise can also trigger the release of serotonin.
- Exposure to sunlight or bright light stimulates the body's circadian rhythm and can increase serotonin levels.
- Yoga, meditation, deep breathing exercises, guided imagery, progressive muscle relaxation.
- 8 to 9 hours of sleep per night can help regulate hormones that can reduce chronic stress and normalize serotonin levels.
- Laugh and spend time with people you love.
- Eat a healthy balanced diet.
- Practicing self-care, expressing gratitude.
