410. Kisi k liye jeenay me hi to maza h,

Aisa karne se hi yeh baat samajh me ati h;

Apne liye hi jeena to sirf ek saza h,

Aisa karne se to vo baat samajh se paray h …

Bright light also acts on both the serotonin and dopamine systems in humans … Depression in the winter, when days are short, can be treated by exposure to bright light early in the morning. … Running increases serotonin … It can help treat clinical depression, that may be due in whole or in part to release of endorphins (neurochemicals that have an action similar to opiates but without the addictive properties).

In addition to factors such as bright light, exercise and meditation, another important factor that is associated with better mood is having a larger social circle … Serotonin can influence social behaviour in humans, with increased serotonin sometimes increasing agreeableness and decreasing quarrelsomeness …
