  • Descrição: The narrative blueprint underpinning many heroic tales can offer a powerful way to reframe experiences say Rogers, Gray, and Christian. Many ancient legends, comic book sagas and blockbuster movies share a storytelling blueprint called the hero's journey. Many such stories have become cultural touchstones that influence how people think about their world and themselves. In a recent study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, they show that people who frame their own life as a hero's journey find more significance in it. This insight led to develop a restorying intervention to enrich individuals' sense of meaning and well-being. When people start to see their own lives as heroic quests, they discovered, they report less depression and can cope better with challenges.
