Statistically happier those who decorate early for Christmas, say psychologists

by

There are two kinds of people in the world. Those who decorate almost on Christmas Eve, and those who will start decorating from November. I belong to a third, hidden category, since I have been dreaming of Christmas since the end of August and I have been secretly listening to Mariah Carey (yes I am).

And while I know many will be puzzled, it seems that psychologists have an explanation for those who want to get in the Christmas mood early (okay very early).

According to psychologists, decorating early for Christmas – or at least, earlier than usual – can make you happier.

The British website Unilad in 2017, reported that people who decorate earlier feel the excitement of the holidays earlier – something that inevitably makes them happier.

Psychologist Deborah Serani confirmed that it is true: Christmas decorations can definitely lift your spirits.

Christmas decoration has the power to evoke happy childhood memories and feelings of joy and nostalgia. Nostalgia in turn has the power to transport people to their past and reconnect them with their childhood.

So psychologists have discovered that people who decorate “early” for Christmas are proven to be happier.

“In a stressful world, most people feel better when they come in contact with things that make them feel happy, and Christmas evokes these strong childhood emotions,” psychoanalyst Steve McKeown, founder and owner of MindFixers, told UNILAD. The McKeown Clinic.

According to Deborah Serani, Christmas decorations can also cause people to “increase dopamine, a hormone that makes you feel good.”

This is attributed to both bright lights and colors. It is possible that the early preparations for Christmas are also a form of color therapy, which is believed to increase energy levels and enhance happiness.

On the other hand, it is not unlikely that someone wants to decorate earlier, in addition to nostalgia, either to relive the magic or to compensate for the lack of it in his childhood.
