Got 3 minutes? This habit may help boost hope and reduce stress from NPR

A study reveals that watching inspiring videos for 3-5 minutes daily can boost positivity and reduce stress. Researchers found that 'underdog' stories, like that of a cancer survivor climbing Mt. Everest, elicited hope and lower stress levels. While the effects are small, they accumulate over time, suggesting that focusing on positive content can improve well-being. Strategies to enhance your social media feed with positive content include seeding your feed, keeping a media log, and periodically resetting your account.
