your mood nose dive! So grab a protein rich slice of cheese and
it'll chase the grouchies away fast.Stand
Tall No Slouching
Slouching causes shallow breathing, limiting the flow of oxygen to
your brain and blocking out happy feelings. So stand up straight it
will change your perspective...

A small amount of caffeine spurs the release of dopamine, a
neurotransmitter that makes you feel good!

Take a brisk walk! By taking a short 15 minute walk you'll calm down
a lot faster than by trying to sit calmly and regain your thoughts.

getting more oxygen to the brain and muscles. Stir your next cup of
tea or coffee with a cinnamon stick!
