How To Increase Serotonin In Your Body

Serotonin is the hormone that is secreted by your body when you do something relaxing and pleasing. It is also called the mood stabiliser as it boosts your mood and reduces stress! It’s one of the 4 feel-good chemicals secreted by the body when you are happy. Serotonin brings a feeling of relief, reduces stress and tension, instills positivity and happiness. It also helps boost memory and learning, regulates your internal body clock and sleeping rhythm. Since this hormone is what helps activate melatonin, it’s key for good sleep as well!
