Those cute Christmas movies are good for us. Whether a Hallmark movie or a classic, Dr. Pamela Rutledge explains in “Psychology Today,” that they're good for our mental health. The easy plots reduce our stress and lift our moods and they also satisfy our need for deep connections. You may have noticed wanted to reconnect with people after seeing one. That is indeed a thing and is very healthy. She adds watching holiday movies brings us back in time and to special memories. As Rutledge says… a happy brain is a happy body! So soak in some Christmas movies.
