💨 Abstract

Adults are increasingly embracing childhood activities like sleepovers, which are gaining popularity on social media. Sleepovers are seen as restorative, reconnecting adults with suppressed joyful aspects of themselves. They provide a low-pressure, intimate setting for deep conversations and emotional bonding. Sleepovers also offer financial benefits, being more affordable than typical nights out. They help combat loneliness and strengthen friendships, which are crucial for mental health and resilience.
