12 Secrets to Lead a Joyful Life

Look for the "awesome" outside

Nature is a natural healer and can do wonders for your mind, body and more.Speaking about the power of heading outside, Vanessa says: "A recent study instructed people to go out for one walk for 15 minutes a day and look for "awe" – things that are literally awesome. It's one of those emotions where you like at something, like an old cedar tree for example, and just say "wow". Not only did this boost people's mood, but those people were pro-social because it took them away from all of their worries and their to-do lists. It helped to put things into perspective."
