Eat Omega 3 Essential Fatty Acids:
    Omega 3 essential fatty acids are the form of fat found primarily in fish and fish oil, among other sources. Omega 3s are the building blocks of the brain and are found in great supply in the gray matter of the brain.
  Get Rid of Stress:
    Stress affects many areas of the body, and the brain is no exception. An elevated level of stress for an extended period of time has been shown to cause chemical problems in the brain.
4. Get Enough Sleep:
    The body needs a solid 7-8 hours of sleep a night. Not getting good amounts of sleep affects chemical production throughout the body. The metabolism reacts to the lack of sleep as well and other problems might ensue. So make sure you're getting enough sleep.
5. Exercise:
    Exercise makes people feel happy. One of the reasons is because exercise encourages the production and release of positive brain chemicals. Doing regular exercise is required for healthy dopamine levels.
6. Get Outside More:
    Studies have shown that a lack of sunlight affects brain chemistry. Even though sunlight has been heavily demonized in recent years by dermatologists, sunlight is absolutely essential to life, and without it, you can end up with a lot of unwanted problems. Taking a stroll through the park at lunch and watching the sunset in the evening can do wonders for your body and mind.
