1. Spending money on experiences makes you happier than spending it on more stuff.

2. Smiling changes how you view the world.

3. Dark chocolate can help improve your concentration.

4.  How to tell is a recipe is worth cooking in 5 easy steps.

5.  Mini Meditations you can do in 1 minute.

Match your inhales and exhales. Take a comfortable breath in and count how long it takes you to do so. Most people reach a count of 3, 4 or 5. Keep in mind that the number isn’t important, so long as it is comfortable for you. Whatever number you reached on your inhale, match that number on your exhale. Repeat for one minute, setting a timer so you can focus on the exercise.”
