Ep. 260 - A little psychology of why we re-read books.
from Finding the Floor - A thoughtful approach to midlife motherhood and what comes next. · host Finding the Floor and Seth Johnson
Send us Fan Mail “There is nothing wrong with coming back to a story that loves you back.” I have been going back to my favorite books and movies lately, so I thought it would be fun to understand why we do that. I share what I learned from an article and a youtube video. A few things I mention is that we find emotional comfort in familiar characters, it helps us when we feel uncertain and we like to look deeper into them and appreciate good art. I talk about more fun reasons why we re-read books and re-watch movies and shows. My favorite is that we love coming back to something that brings us profound joy. For show notes and transcripts go to www.findingthefloor.com/ep260 I would love to hear from you! You can reach me at [email protected] or dm @findingthefloor on instagram. Thanks for listening!! Thanks to Seth Johnson for my intro and outro original music. I love it so much!
