Would you like
to boost your social life and increase your success?
Then break out of your
comfort zone and try something new!
Even if the saying “New Year, New You” doesn’t resonate with you, you
might still be keen to start 2017 by turning over a new leaf. Despite being an
energetic, outgoing person, you may still have found yourself using the dark
winter months as an excuse to socialise less and spend a greater amount of time
indoors and online!
However, studies show that it is vitally important to spend less time
staring at screens and to boost our time spent with other people and outdoors. Socialising,
moving our bodies and being outside all release the happiness hormones –
endorphins, serotonin and dopamine (which also help us to sleep!).
Taking some exercise – anything from a stroll to an exacting sport – is excellent
for physical and emotional wellbeing. Meeting up with others with similar
interest builds morale and contentment and, if you can combine it with connecting
with nature, this has been shown to improve emotional, social and cognitive
skills!
Furthermore, trying new activities and taking risks are also shown to
boost confidence and lead to improved social skills. Ultimately these qualities
can give rise to added success and happiness and possibly even longevity!
So. What should you do? Why not try to:
·
Break out of your routine
·
Be open to new opportunities
·
Explore the world around you
·
Increase your exercise: maybe walking, swimming,
cycling or running – just do it!
·
Try a new sport: something that challenges you – perhaps
archery, kayaking, or climbing
·
Add adventure to your life!
