Understanding Habituation and Dishabituation
Habituation is a common phenomenon where individuals become desensitized to unchanging stimuli over time. This can lead to a lack of appreciation for once exciting events, things, and even people in our lives. Author Cast Sunstein explores the concept in his book, highlighting how habituation drains the color from our world.
