One way to keep your mind calm and happy is to meditate. You don't need to take out a lot of time, all you need is 15 minutes of just sitting in peace with your eyes closed. The more positive thoughts you think, the better your mind and your body will feel.

When you smile, your brain releases dopamine, which helps to make you even happier. However, you don't have to walk around with a fake smile all day to achieve this. You can start this habit by thinking of something happy that has happened in your life. Try looking in the mirror and smiling at yourself. It may be awkward to just crack a smile at what may feel like nothing. However, over time you may notice a huge shift in your attitude and start to feel more positive.

There are certain foods that can have an impact on the brain. A "feel good' hormone called serotonin is released when you consume carbohydrates. However, consume this in moderation. Opt for beans and whole grains instead of foods high in starch. Protein-rich foods release dopamine and norepinephrine in the body that helps to give you more energy and help you concentrate on tasks better. You could also make note of what you eat so you can track what foods are better options to feel good.
