The Christmas Spirit (theory)

The Christmas Spirit refers to the collective feeling of generosity, kindness, and community that often emerges during the holiday season. It involves selfless acts, giving, and a sense of compassion that promotes connection and goodwill among people. Psychologically, it can be driven by cultural traditions, social expectations, and personal reflections on gratitude and togetherness. Essentially, it’s the intangible sense of warmth and altruism that encourages people to be more empathetic and supportive, fostering a feeling of unity and happiness during Christmas time.
