In order to feel the same pleasure is actually not difficult. Here are 5 ways to be happy like the Finnish people quoted from CN Traveler on Saturday (20/03/2021) among others:
- Take a cold shower in the morning
The climate in Finland tends to be cooler than in other countries including Indonesia. However, the people often start the day with a cold shower.
Even more extreme, many love the thrill of jumping into a frozen lake of ice when you wake up in the morning. For a more modern alternative, there are also many ice pools available with various amenities.
This method is believed to increase circulation as the production of serotonin and dopamine increases. These two hormones are commonly known to improve mood for the better.
Finnish people are very fond read the book. This is evidenced by the number of book borrowers who reach 68 million books a year.
Even though the number of citizens alone is only 5.5 million people. Read the book is also one of the favorite alternatives to time fillers when the pandemic first broke out in this country.
To feel the same sensation, make it a habit to read more books and surf less on social media.
