HOUSTON – Harnessing the power of rituals can help us reclaim some of our identity that has been lost during the pandemic, according to UT Physicians/ UT Health. That joy is linked to memories that come with these rituals which makes them more than tradition, it gives healing power to holiday decorating. For many, holiday decorating is a way to call those memories to mind. While rituals can improve our mental health, don’t hesitate to seek help if they are not enough.
