Personality Enhancing Habits |
Research shows that personality traits like openness, conscientiousness, extroversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism can be positively adjusted through small, intentional habits—and these changes can last for over a year.

can reduce stress and anxiety, making them beneficial for mental well-being. Even better: combine cozy gaming with coxymaxxing to…well…maximize the benefits!
