Hedonic Reset

Life, when lived normally, creates a base level of happiness. We tend to fall back on this level, no matter what happens. The secret is to reset this base level by doing a hedonic reset, stuff that appears comical and absurd, but helps you understand life and its true nature:

• Start only drinking water and nothing else for a while.
• Stop using your car and travel by foot instead.
• Sleep without a pillow.
• Stop using hot water to shower, and only take cold ones.
