You may be surprised.
Taking photographs
If you find yourself getting snap happy on a holiday or night out, this may be no bad thing.
Stress
While we all know about the health dangers of long-term stress, stress in short bursts can actually strengthen your immune system.
Surfing the internet
Think that browsing Facebook and searching for celebrity gossip is a waste of time? Think again.
Crying
We all know that laughter is good for us, but the surprising news is that shedding some tears could also do wonders for your health.
Getting married
Multiple research studies and statistics suggest that those who are married live longer than singletons due to the fact they experience less social isolation.
Housework
It may not be your favourite activity, yet keeping your home clean and tidy could help you stay fit and healthy and keep off those extra pounds.
Having a big bum
If you regularly spend hours in the gym trying to trim inches off your thighs or bum, it may be time you stopped and showed your curves a little appreciation instead.
Dirt
With the soaring popularity of anti-bacterial hand gels, clothing and washing products, it is easy to believe that dirt is the ultimate enemy.
