  Hit the book:
  Question: Is happiness nature or nurture2?
  Eating ice cream really does make you happy. Scientists have found that a spoonful of the cold stuff lights up the same pleasure centre in the brain as winning money or listening to your favourite music.
  Neuroscientists at the Institute of Psychiatry3 in London scanned the brains of people eating vanilla4 ice cream. They found an immediate5 effect on parts of the brain known to activate6 when people enjoy themselves; these include the orbitofrontal cortex, the "processing" area at the front of the brain.
  Sports releases happy chemicals into your brain.
  Dopamine, a chemical that plays a role in happiness, is a neurotransmitter in the brain that's necessary for feelings of pleasure and happiness.
  Many studies suggest that as we age, we're constantly losing our stores of dopamine, which is why we need to constantly seek out experiences that release dopamine.
  The best way to increase your brain’s dopamine production? Exercise. So run, lift, jump, play — and get happy.
  Cone
  Dessert
  Positive
  Quality
  In a great mood
  Euphoria
