Ways To Naturally Increase Endorphins

Sniff Some Vanilla Or Lavender Oil

There are certain aromas that can lift up your mood instantly by influencing the production of endorphins. Studies reveal that the scent of vanilla helps to reduce anxiety, which is often associated with depression. Lavender oil has the same effect. You can increase your endorphins by lighting some vanilla-scented candles, or add vanilla essential oil to your bathwater or simply dab some lavender oil on your wrists and temples.

Take A Little Ginseng

This herb balances the release of stress hormones in the body and also supports the body organs that produce these hormones. Studies reveal that it may also enhance the production of endorphins. So, what better reason to include this herb in your diet? You can have ginseng tea.

Take A Group Exercise Class

Exercising in groups has few distinct advantages, according to a recent study. Not only will friends discuss and learn new exercises, it also gives your endorphin levels an extra boost.

Seek Out Daily Laughter

Make Love
