We’ll break down the four key <strong>happiness hormones</strong> — dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, and endorphins — and how each is naturally produced in your body. You’ll learn why happiness is a temporary emotional state, how to boost your happiness hormones in everyday life, and why pursuing <strong>balance, purpose, and fulfillment</strong> may be more sustainable than chasing happiness itself.</p>","author_name":"Maliha Omar"}
