Nostalgia In The New Year: How It Shapes Our Past, Present, and Future

New year, new me, or at least that’s how the saying goes.

Why do we tend to feel nostalgic as we grow older and is there such a thing as being too nostalgic? Here to help us delve into that is clinical psychologist Dr Joel Low.
