The World Cup, or the emotional magic

28 Dec

The World Cup has come to an end and many of us already miss it! It’s quite a challenge to settle back into our daily routine after a month of excitement and passion. Because there is no doubt about it, the World Cup makes you feel good!

Arousing strong emotions

World Cup games generate strong and unique emotions, from joy to disappointment. There’s just one ball... and so many thrills for the spectators! These turbulence zones, these roller coasters for our hearts and our nerves, have a real positive impact on our physical and mental well-being. And we often overlook the fact that they’re also stress relievers. The games are a real opportunity to unwind.

Sharing the excitement

One of the magical powers of the World Cup is that it creates a strong sense of belonging. You feel like you are part of the same team, and that is such a positive and pleasant feeling. Hope, expectation, excitement, happiness, celebrating together, with friends, family or strangers. Whatever the age, sharing brings a deep, communicative and unforgettable joy. #BetterTogether

Boosting brain activity

We don’t talk about it much and yet, watching a soccer game will stimulate our emotional memory, considered more powerful than factual memory. Bottom line, remembering iconic moments that moved us boosts brain activity. Try it for yourself ☺

What’s next?

When the fun, enjoyment and excitement come to an end, there is a sense of emptiness and a feeling of lack on the horizon. To avoid the post-World Cup blues, the best solution is to get back in the move, project yourself, and quickly!
