The Nordic countries of Finland, Denmark, Iceland, Norway and Sweden are regularly top scorers in world happiness rankings. These countries have placed in the top 10 of the World Happiness Report (WHR) every year since 2013 — so what's their secret?

These five countries score well in all six of the things considered in the WHR: GDP per capita, social support, healthy life expectancy, freedom, generosity and corruption.

But the WHR has noted that there might be another thing these countries have more of than others — trust.

Trust is very important, says WHR editor John F. Helliwell, a former professor at the University of British Columbia. And he developed a study to test how community trust is linked to better well-being.

In Helliwell's study, he looked at how likely people thought it would be for a lost wallet to be returned to them, and he compared this to their life satisfaction score from zero to 10.

He found that those who expected their wallet to be returned had a higher life satisfaction score.

"We find people are much, much happier if they feel they're in an environment where people are going to watch their back," Helliwell told Euro News.

In a 2023 experiment by Reader's Digest, wallets were actually left for people to find in cities around the world. And where was a lost wallet most likely to be returned? In Helsinki, the capital of Finland.

The WHR has noted that a high level of trust may be among the things that explain Nordic happiness.

However, as Forbes has suggested, it may not be so much about big-smile "happiness" as quieter "contentment."

Rather than always trying for something better, people in Scandinavian countries are more often content with what they have. As a result, few of them will say they are unhappy — which helps these countries do well in world happiness rankings.

What's the Secret to Nordic Countries' Happiness?

El yoga con calor (también llamado Hot Yoga) hace que los pulmones y el corazón trabajen más y, como en las sesiones sin calor, esta práctica te ayuda a mejorar la fuerza y la flexibilidad.

* Beneficio Nº1. Mejora la flexibilidad. Estirar cuando los músculos se han calentado (como se hace en el Hot Yoga) aumenta la flexibilidad y mejora la amplitud de movimiento de las articulaciones. Un estudio de marzo de 2013 del Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research demostró que, tras 8 semanas, las personas que practicaron hot yoga tenían más flexibilidad en los hombros, la zona lumbar y los isquiotibiales que el grupo de control. La flexibilidad ayuda a adoptar determinadas posturas de yoga con más facilidad, sobre todo las que requieren un estiramiento profundo. Además, el yoga fortalece los músculos. El mismo estudio demostró que los participantes podían levantar más en peso muerto.

* Beneficio Nº2. Aumenta la capacidad pulmonar. Como el yoga se centra en técnicas de respiración y te enseña a concentrarte al inspirar y espirar, entrena los pulmones para retener más aire. Respirar hondo habitualmente permite que entre más oxígeno en el flujo sanguíneo, mantiene los pulmones sanos y aumenta la capacidad pulmonar, que suele disminuir con la edad. El pranayama es un tipo de ejercicios de yoga concreto que se centra en controlar la respiración durante un periodo de tiempo determinado. En él, se trabaja la respiración abdominal, la torácica y la clavicular, lo que te ayuda a maximizar la entrada de oxígeno.
