The festive season is a time of giving, but why do we share our love by giving special Christmas gifts?
It turns out it all comes down to our primal need to communicate.
Yuletide celebrations go back thousands of years. Back then, it celebrated midwinter, when things were scarce and life was harsh. Coming together wasn’t easy, so people gathered in community groups over several days, sharing what food they had and enjoying each other’s company.
Sharing is a form of communication that reinforces and strengthens connections. What we share and the way we do it tells the receiver how we feel about them.
Gifting is a form of sharing, and it's a way of communicating our love and appreciation to others.
Giving is actually good for you. Giving and receiving gifts causes feel-good chemicals to be released by the brain, giving rise to a spontaneous feeling of euphoria and joy. These are feelings that draw us closer to one another.
The significance attached to the Christmas season over millennia means its importance has spread across the globe and is celebrated across cultures. Passed from parent to child over many generations, it’s become deep-rooted.
In truth, we’re almost hardwired to accept that Christmas is a special time of celebration. Christmas festivities have become a time for meeting up to enjoy each other’s company and giving gifts to convey our feelings.
Both celebrating and gifting are communications of caring, love, gratitude, and joy.
So there it is – our instinctive desire to communicate makes us love giving special Christmas gifts.
