β¨ Merry Christmas 2021 fromΒ Chloe ChanΒ and I, barbecuing fromΒ Sunway Lagoon, with Santa Claus & his merry, merry friends, who seem to be lost in the Wild Wild West Town at night.
π Now, DID YOU KNOW THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF CELEBRATING CHRISTMAS? Here are 7 of them here…
βοΈ π Christmas has important social, cultural and religious functions.
For people of all faiths, the Christmas holidays bring people and families together to reflect on the year gone by and look forward to the next.
βοΈ π ResearchΒ has shown that this spirit of Christmas manifests as a multitude of positive feelings and behaviours that are experienced collectively, including greater altruism, goodwill and generosity.
βοΈ π Christmas Routines and rituals offerΒ structure and predictabilityΒ in our lives and perform important psychological functions toΒ manage anxiety.
βοΈ π Research shows thatΒ Christmas rituals specificallyΒ can play a role in creating a sense of wellbeing and satisfaction. They evoke memories of other times in our lives when we have gone through the same rituals. Every time we put up Christmas decorations, our brain fires up our stored up festive feelings.
βοΈ π Following two years where we have had so much disruption in our routines and rituals already, and people have reported feeling increasingly isolated, Christmas rituals can offer us a sense of connection again.
βοΈ π Festivities also often highlight the things we have to be grateful for, and this gratitude can also increase ourΒ sense of wellbeing.
βοΈ π Celebrations can increase our appreciation for the positive elements in our lives, and will draw upon stores of positive emotion that weβve built through memory.
So, GO AHEAD – Celebrate Christmas, Participate in Rituals or just the Practice of this festive season, so that You can Feel Happier & more Positive!
This is all part of our Gameplan to Feel Happier, more Cherished & Fulfilled, as WE ready ourselves for a more exciting 2022 ahead!
