#Sharedreality

A groundbreaking new study is shining light on a question that strikes at the heart of human existence: How do people find true meaning in their lives? Turns out, the answer may lie closer to home than many realize. Recent research published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology finds that sharing a “shared reality” with one’s romantic partner—meaning a deep alignment in how both partners view and emotionally respond to the world—significantly increases the sense of meaning in life by reducing uncertainty about life’s challenges and upheavals (studyfinds.org).
