Novel experiences can boost happiness from "summary" of Happiness by Daniel Nettle

Novel experiences can boost happiness. When we engage in activities that are new and different, we stimulate our brains and create a sense of excitement and adventure. This can lead to a feeling of increased well-being and satisfaction with life. Trying something new can break us out of our routine and shake things up. Whether it's taking a different route to work, trying a new hobby, or traveling to a new place, novel experiences can provide a sense of novelty and freshness that can be invigorating. When we try new things, we are also more likely to meet new people and make new connections. This can lead to a sense of social fulfillment and belonging, which are key components of happiness. Meeting new people can expand our social networks and expose us to different perspectives and ideas, which can be enriching and fulfilling. Novel experiences can also help us to learn and grow. When we try something new, we are often challenged to step outside of our comfort zone and confront our fears. This can lead to personal growth and development, as we learn new skills, gain confidence, and discover new aspects of ourselves. In addition, novel experiences can provide us with a sense of accomplishment and pride. When we successfully try something new, we feel a sense of achievement and satisfaction that can boost our self-esteem and overall sense of well-being.
