This blog explores how wearable tech and SIX can help you optimize happiness by identifying real-time brain and body responses to daily experiences. By building a personalized "dopamine menu," users can discover which activities naturally boost mood, motivation, and emotional well-being—going beyond generic self-care to create a more fulfilling life. Using neuroscience, SIX makes it easy to measure and repeat the moments that truly make you thrive.

Dogs enhance emotional fitness by reducing stress, increasing oxytocin, and fostering deeper connections. Research shows these moments are key to well-being, building resilience and joy. SIX measures these powerful experiences in real time using neuroscience and wearables, helping you track what truly matters.

Our brains are wired to thrive through connection. This Valentine’s Day, discover how love, laughter, and shared experiences with others—whether it’s with friends, colleagues, or even your dog—can boost your happiness and energy. Learn the science behind why connection matters and how you can unlock more joy in your everyday life!
