Do five simple things a day to stay sane, say scientists - Times Online

5 Steps to happiness

1. Connect: Developing relationships with family, friends, colleagues and neighbours will enrich your life and bring you support.
2. Be active: Sports, hobbies such as gardening or dancing, or just a daily stroll will make you feel good and maintain mobility and fitness
3. Be curious: Noting the beauty of everyday moments as well as the unusual and reflecting on them helps you to appreciate what matters to you
4. Learn: Fixing a bike, learning an instrument, cooking – the challenge and satisfaction brings fun and confidence
5. Give: Helping friends and strangers links your happiness to a wider community and is very rewarding
