Today’s episode is about the power of traditions. Michael tells a story about a ridiculous family holiday tradition, what he gained from it, and the lessons he learned after it faded.
Holiday traditions improve our mental and physical health, forge important social bonds and trust, and teach us critical lessons about being human.
But traditions come and go, and when we lose them we lose an important mechanism to be a better person.
Today we’re diving into a brilliant scientific work on traditions—why traditions make us and mend us, and how we can build them. We’ll cover:
* Reasons why traditions are so powerful for human wellbeing.
* Why traditions die (6 reasons).
* Why you should create new traditions when old ones die.
* Three rules you must follow to create a successful new tradition.
