Pushing The Right Buttons: Programming Our Bodies For Happiness
Our bodies are complex machines and, like any decent piece of kit, they have buttons to tap into different functionalities. Trouble is, our human form doesn’t have clearly marked keys, so where’s our ‘happiness switch’ and how do we find it?
I’VE started experiencing panic attacks. I’m a 45-year-old woman and I have never experienced these awful episodes before in my life. I’ve been through stress, anxiety, depression, even a breakdown, but never, ever panic attacks.

On doing a bit of research, I discovered that it’s not unusual for women to experience adrenaline peaks as our bodies start to move into menopause, which is why so many of us get pummelled by panic, but that’s for another article. In this one, I want to talk about understanding our bodies and learning how to tune them into the mood frequency we desire.
