Did you have a bad day? We know that sometimes it is inevitable to feel upset, but we tell you how to get rid of frustration and improve your mood:

• Pretend a smile

According to researchers at the Department of Psychology at the University of Kansas, the simple act of smiling reduces stress and improves mood. So even if it's a fake at first, eventually you'll feel better.

• Pamper yourself with a snack

Certain foods contain substances that reduce stress. Nuts, kiwi, pineapple and tomatoes contain serotonin that improves mood. Chocolate is also an option, as it contains polyphenols that give the body a feeling of satisfaction. A small portion can help you, just remember that balance is important.

• Use aromatherapy

It is proven that the smell of lavender and orange generate tranquility in people. Spread a little in your home or office and you will see that you will feel calmer.

• Escape the bad mood

Walking is a simple way to leave behind negative thoughts. Researchers from Michigan Medicine have shown that walking in nature or in some open space increases well-being and mental health.

• Embrace

This simple action triggers a series of chemical responses within your body. According to Tiffany Field, director of the Touch Research Institute at the University of Miami Medical University, at the moment of the hug, nerves are stimulated and oxytocin is increased. In addition, the heart rate and cortisol - known as the stress hormone - decrease.
