happiest day of the year [General] — rustle @ 3:12 pm

happy

I just knew there was some reason for my last post. Rather like always smoking far more on National No-Smoking Day, I blog suicide on the happiest day of the year. That is according to Cliff Arnall, a part-time tutor at Cardiff University.

He used the equation: O + (N x S) + Cpm divided by T + He, which takes six different variables into account.

The variables are O for being outdoors and outdoor activity; N for nature; S for social interaction; Cpm for childhood summers and positive memories; T for temperature; and He for holidays and looking forward to time off.

Increased outdoor activity, high energy levels and more sunlight have combined to create today’s good mood, Dr Arnall found.

I’ve got to admit it is a pretty good day here, 30C, lots of birdsong, nothing overly pressing to do.
