      yes exercise does make you happy because for me i feel i've done something to keep fit and suddenly i don't feel fat anymore, also exercise just gets your blood going and it just makes you feel great!
      i be happy when i feel i'm part of something like the local swim group!

      Yea it does. Your body releases like this happy hormone when you push your body to your limits

      It makes you healthier, and to be happy usually you need to be healthy.
      Good relationships with people make your happy.
      Romance can made you happy,
      Accomplishment makes a person happy, like running a marathon, climbing a mountain, learning to draw or write or paint really well makes a person happy.
      Unexpected gifts and good fortune make people happy.
      Heck, for some, your football team winning makes them jump with joy!

      Yes, it's a proven fact that when you exercise your body releases endorphins, which result in a feeling of happiness.

      Exercise works well for me - I seem to see things in perspective better after exercise. What helped me a lot as well was understanding how my negative self-talk was affecting me. Just google "distortions of thought" (Author David Burns) to understand the kinds of faulty thinking that can influence your mood. Or there is a Wiki link below

      exercise does make you happy.
      for me it is a sense of achievement that comes from exercising.
      other things that make me happy are being with good friends, having lunch or dinner out with good company, a nice long hot bath with oils in it, work and hardwork at that, knowing my family loves me and appreciates me for who i am.
      positive things make me happy.

      Certainly for two reasons:
      1)Exersize releases endorphins in your brain that elevate your mood

      2)Regular exersize makes you feel good from inside because your body feels good. Looking good also helps in making you happy.

      Self-actualization and acceptance is something that makes people happy. Others can be happy by helping others out and giving back. Others find it in prayer. others in children. Basically it highly depends on what kind of person you are.
