Many studies confirm the benefits of positive emotions for happiness, health and its positive impacts on others.

2- Practical exercice:

When you feel you slip to a negative state : just detect it and use your triggers; play trying to find new ones ! you can’t avoid negative emotions but you can manage the duration how long stay in it.
Don’t miss any opportunity to live positive emotions and organize your life as much as possible to avoid “aspiration” to negative states.
