How Christmas Lights Bring You Joy and Happiness
Putting up Christmas lights at home can be an experience that brings you great joy and happiness. You may not know it, but the lights can have a positive effect on your mental health. It turns out that the Christmas lights have a special effect on our brains. They have been found to spike the release of dopamine, a neurotransmitter that can help to lift our moods. This effect can also be achieved by introducing new sensory elements into our environment. During the holiday season, it is not uncommon for us to feel a bit stressed or anxious. This is why putting up the lights early can help to lift your mood and make you feel happier.
Christmas decorating spikes dopamine
Having bright lights on your Christmas tree or lights throughout your house can lift your mood and give you an energy boost. The colors and bright lights have been shown to increase levels of dopamine, a feel-good hormone. Dopamine is known for its positive physical health benefits.
Psychologists say that decorating your home for the holidays can help increase happiness. Their research found that neighbors perceive you as friendlier when you decorate for the holiday. This can help you form bonds with other neighbors and make you more likely to meet new people.
Holiday cheer can lead to feelings of unease around the new year
During the holiday season, some people feel stressed out, depressed, and unhappy. This feeling can affect how they perform in school, work, or other aspects of their life. During the holidays, people may also be feeling socially isolated, which can add to their feelings of stress. Holiday cheer can also spread from one-holiday event to another. This can be a good way to distract yourself from negative feelings.
