I play outdoor padel 4 times a week, and it has become a healthy habit for me. As I read, being outdoors produces serotonins, which make you feel important, and doing sports produces endrophins, which make you feel calm.

2. The negative habit that I have is eating unhealthy food, which makes me feel good while I'm eating, but after that  I regret it or feel bad. What I would do to transform this negative habit into a positive one would be to plan a healthy diet to follow every week, which would produce serotonins and oxytocins, and I would feel a lot better with myself and have more happy hormones.]]> 2017-11-06 19:44:12 UTC https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204089329 Kevin Qiu https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204090442 1. I listen to music every day and this healthy habit brings me many happy hormones that make me feel happy. What I read on the website about happy hormones says that doing this activity daily can bring me some good hormones like: dopamine and serotonin. They produce pleasure and happiness.

 2. One of my bad habits is the distraction, Usually when I'm doing boring or large tasks I can't stop doing other things. But the worst is that what I do isn't productive nor makes me happy, so it's like wasting time doing nothing, for example: when I do maths homework and just for copying some roman numerals (I, II, III...) I think about the history of ancient Rome, Cleopatra and finally I search in Google "Memphis" but it appears the city in the USA.
And when finally I finish, I feel tired and I don't still progressing with the task, so I have done anything productive. I would like to change my place of study and only use the computer and the mobile phone for searching useful information.

1. I play every week football and tennis, this make me to feel better with myself, I spread dopamine, and I feel awesome. I'm a very loving son, and I ever hug at my parents, feeling loved and important. I like all foods, and I eat everything so I'm in high spirits when I eat peanuts, eggs or something like that.

2. I have to get out more from my home, I spend all the weekend in home, playing videogames and watching TV, but I will go to do a walk every morning with my mum, for be in the nature and get out from home. I will meet with my friends every week too, so I will be having fun and it will be healthy!]]> 2017-11-06 19:47:03 UTC https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204090787 Elizabeth esimoulis https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204092265 2017-11-06 19:49:55 UTC https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204092265 Armand Casellas Mesas https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204092993
1. I play paddle three times a week. I think this is a good habit for happy hormones because I do exercises and I enjoy it a lot. This activity makes me feel happier because I spend good time with my friends.

2. Sometimes, I spend almost all the weekend playing videogames or watching series. I think is good to play videogames and watch series, but no so much. 
So, I will try to reduce the time I spend playing videogames and watching series and instead, I will work out, go out with my friends or stay with my family.]]> 2017-11-06 19:51:17 UTC https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204092993 Marta Ortínez Cuadrat https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204092995 1. I've been playing volleyball 3 times a week for the last 5 years and it has become a healthy habit for me because I release serotonin and endorphines which make me feel important and calm.
2. A negative habit I can improve is that during the weekends if I don't have a lot of homework I can spend all the afternoon watching Netflix. To improve that I could go and hang out with my friends more often during the weekend so my oxyotcin gets released and I feel more loved.]]> 2017-11-06 19:51:17 UTC https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204092995 Laura Almarcha https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204093558 1. I dance at an academy twice a week. As I read in the text my body produces serotonine, that make you feel important and dopamine, the reward hormone of the pleasure chemical.
2. I spend many hours with my phone and and that makes me not able to study enough, because of that, sometimes I have failed some exams and I get depressed because I see that my friends are not so much with the mobile and they pass all they exams. To avoid this, what I could do is try to spend less time with the phone or when I get home, give the mobile to my mother and she will keep it me until I finish studying.

I play piano once a week and I am also studying germany for 4 hours. I also play football, but only for hobby, I am not playing in a specific team.
2. I spend many hours playing videogames and to change this negative habit to a positive habit I would have to leave home and meet with friends, go running, go cycling... ]]> 2017-11-06 19:52:28 UTC https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204093619 Juan González https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204093778 1I play football three times a week. That produces to me dopamine. 
2 The negative habit is that im playing in the computer a lot of time. To turn the bad habits to good ones i have to go outside with Friends or alone.]]> 2017-11-06 19:52:47 UTC https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204093778 Laia Álvarez https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204094516 1.- Twice a week I dance in my school's dance academy. 
When I release energy dancing, I feel good about my self, and also I feel              that my body creates hormones like: serotonin and endorphins.
This creates in me an extra happiness, and i consider it an healthy habit.

2.- I think that my bad habit is spend a lot of time in Instagram, I don't
 realize the time that I spend seeing other's pots. These makes me feelbad
and dissapointed with myself, because I have more importants things, and
 they I realize that I don't have time for the important things and for get out
 from the social media world.

As I read, doing sport and being proud of my daily results in every workout, is the result of serotonin, dopamine and oxytocin levels that my body produces.
Even if I'm very tired, if I learned a new technique or achieved one objective, those happy hormones makes me feel so good with myself.
2. I often distract myself with my mobile phone while I'm doing my homework. 
 I lose the sense of time watching it and the time passes so fast.
When I realize that it's too late I feel so depressed thinking with all those tasks that I couldn't do during this time. 
I will try to disconnect my cell phone during I'm studying, and with that, seize the time and be more happier with the work done than be watching talent videos and all task to do.]]> 2017-11-06 19:55:27 UTC https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204095220 Gloria Prieto https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204095510 1. I play the piano and the guitar a lot of times a week, because I love music. I like singing and listen to music. Listen to music produce you endorphins that mekes you became calm and happy. I consider that is a good habit for me because when I'm streesed it helps me and I feel more animate.
2. The negative habit is that I don't matter what happends to me and I don't eat nothing healthy if I don't want. But my mum and dad are acostumbrating me to eat more healthier and less junk food. Because they explain me that you can feel better and more skilled to wake up early and enjoy all the day.]]> 2017-11-06 19:56:02 UTC https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204095510 Marina Martin https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204462594 1. A positive habit that I have is that I  do some work out or I go running twice a week. This activities make me feel happier because they introduce to my body happy hormones such as serotonin or oxytocin.
2. Sometimes I spend too much time in my mobile phone or in my computer. I think it is okay to use them, but it has to be during a few time and when I waste too many hours watching TV shows or looking at social media this turns into a negative habit. So, I will try to use less time electronics and insead, I will go for a walk or be with my family.]]> 2017-11-07 17:03:13 UTC https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204462594 Aina Carbonell https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204850829 1. A positive habit that I have and brings me happy hormones is spending time with my friends and my brothers because I know that spending time with people who I care about increase my oxitocin levels.
2. My goal to change a negative habit to a positive habit is instead of spending so much time talking with my friends in whatsapp, talk to them face-to-face.]]> 2017-11-08 15:10:36 UTC https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/204850829 Àlex Guimerà https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/205757890 1.I think that there are a lot of positive habits to do wich gives you happy hormones, but I use one, wich is dream big. Dream Big is to think and propose difficult things to do and have some goals in life and everyday, When you think with dreams, and then you do it, you have a lot of happy hormones.

2.One goal you can think and do to upgrade your inteligence, it's to go to extracurricular clases, but not of  reinforcement, an extracurricular activity of your favourite subject, for example, maths, tecnology...

I go almost everywhere walking and I go swimming once a week. I love swimming, so it makes me feel so good and, as I read in the text, it also produce me serotonin, that makes us feel important, and endorphins, the calm hormone. 

2. I am accustomed to eat chocolate almost every day. I know this is not a healthy habit and, sometimes, after eating it, I don't feel good with myself. I would like to change this negative habit to a good one by eating some healthy food like fruit and vegetables. ]]> 2017-11-11 11:23:28 UTC https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/205875145 Abril Bertran Hernandez https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/205898153 1. I usually ride a horse every day during the whole summer. I love it. It gives me a lot of inner peace, puts me fit and very, very happy.  It produces me a lot of endorphins, the calm hormone, when I'm alone doing a walk with mi horse hearing the birds and water it's when I have more inner peace, dopamine, when I'm riding in front of a lot of people and they praise me, serotonin, makes me feel important when I speak with other people or help them with their horses and oxytocin because I know all about my horse, I can trust it, it's like my best friend and I love it.

2. One of my bad habits is to eat unhealthy food. I love chocolate and if I can I would eat it all time. Every day I eat something unhealthy a lot o bread or croissants or sweets or pizza... And at the moment it puts me very happy but 10 minutes later I'm sad because I have ate bad food for my health.  I will try the method of 45 days without eating unhealthy food and convert a bad habit into a good one. Finally, I would try to continue without eating unhealthy food during all week and only once a week I will eat chocolate or croissant or... I hope this will help me.

Studying and working hard on my homeworks gives me a lot of happy hormones because I feel that, that day was usefull and this makes me feel better with my self.
2. Playing the computer before i'd finished my homeworks it's a quite bad habbit, so, why not changing it to a good one? It's much better when you have been doing your homework and you're tired and then you play some videogames that playing before studying and then do my homeworks until 12 o'clock.

I think that a good habit that I have is that I do a lot of exercise, because I do athletics four days a week and when I do it  feel good about myself and this produces me a lot of serotonin.

2. One negative habit that I have to change is that I spend all the time that I'm at home watching the TV, watching series in Netflix or using the mobile phone and I think that this can change if I spend this time reading, doing homeworks, painting...

Working out three times a week is very important to me, when I leave the gym I feel released, like a new person, this produces me a lot of serotonin which prevents me the feeling of depression. I also think that be useful is a thing that kinda makes me happy, I love ending the day with satisfaction and full of happy hormones.

2. One bad habit in my life that I should definitely change is trying not to spend all my free time with my phone watching series, listening to music and checking my social media, I will get that goal if I have dopamine that motivates us to take actions toward goals.
Instead of this bad habit, I should spend more time with my family and friends in order to help my body produce more oxytocin.]]> 2017-12-31 11:51:02 UTC https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/218215921 Maria Ballester https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/218780554 1. I work really hard at school and whenI get my grades, I feel proud about myself and this produces me lots of Happy Hormones. Also, I feel good when I laugh with my friends.
2. A bad habit I have is that, as I work hard, I go tobed REALLY LATE and I usully sleep 5 hours (more or less) instead of 8 hours.]]> 2018-01-04 16:30:00 UTC https://padlet.com/esimoulis/yb3y6uf80c64/wish/218780554
