Stuck in a rut? UCI Chicano/Latino studies professor and chair Belinda Campos says "practicing" positive emotions can help prevent or work with everyday doldrums and weariness.
She shared a few tips with NPR on how to turn happiness into a habit. A big - and easy one - she recommends: sharing some appreciation. Get together with some friends and write out on cards three things that you're grateful for in the other person. Then share the cards with each other.
"We're using this task right now in my laboratory, and it seems to be very evocative of positive emotion," she says. And though the data is preliminary, she says, "what we see so far is that people enjoy writing what they appreciate in others, and they enjoy sharing it with the other person. It seems to be affirming bonds." Sometimes it even ends in hugs.

We are not your standard school. Like Peter, our beloved Anteater mascot, we're quirky and different. We're on a mission to create positive change in society, economies and human well-being by breaking down traditional barriers and pushing the limits in teaching, research and service. Doing so requires a different attitude, aim and set of actions.
