Happiness Happens Month is celebrated yearly in August. So, this started by the group, Secret Society of Happy People; founded by Pamela Gail Johnson in August 1998.

Happiness Happens Month

In the first place, everyone wants to be happy. Moreover, this month is all about putting a smile on someone’s face.

In fact, the group that started this wanted to create a positive environment for you to share your thoughts.

When you are feeling happy; you should share your stories with others. At the same time; putting a smile on someone’s face is a great way to spread positive vibes.

For instance, if you see someone looking like something is bothering them; ask them why.

Fun Ways to Celebrate Happiness Happens Month

Since almost everyone knows the song, “When you’re happy and you know it”

Did you know the most enormous human smile was achieved in the Philippines? In 2016, an event was organized by Alliance in Motion Global that 8018 people participated to create the “Biggest Human Smiley”. Also, this has been recorded in the Guinness Book of Records.

In addition, Finland has been ranked the happiest country in the world since 2017.

Another great way to spread cheer is to participate or volunteer your time to support a group or people in need. For instance, offer your services or to do errands for someone elderly or at a nursing home.

Of course, paying a compliment to someone is a great way to brighten up someone’s day. And, more importantly, don’t forget to compliment yourself.

At the same time, use this month to spend time doing things that make you happy. Whether your help someone, or spend time doing something you have always wanted to try; there are many ways to be cheerful.

Sing in the Shower!

Surround yourself around beauty. Whether you like flowers or the beach; take the time to enjoy nature and your surrounding.

Take a walk on the beach or a hike.

Visit a relative or make plans to get together with someone you haven’t seen in a while

Put on your Happy Face

When you smile, you are expressing you are a happy person.

Moreover, if someone smiles at me; I usually smile back at them. Indeed, smiling is infectious!

Hence, smiling feels good. Whether you are taking a walk by yourself or with a group of people; put on your happy face.

Next time you are having a bad day; try and change your thought process. I have found when something is bothering me and I do something that makes me feel good; I’m able to lift my spirits.

Since smiling is a way to trigger happy emotions; it’s time to smile.
