And, in fact, despite being a complex emotional state that can include feelings of loss and sadness,nostalgia doesn't generally put people in a negative mood.Instead, by allowing individuals
to remember personally meaningful and rewarding experiences
they shared with others,nostalgia can boost psychological well-being.Studies have shown that inducing nostalgia in people
can help increase their feelings of self-esteem and social belonging,
encourage psychological growth,and even make them act
more charitably.
