Zenigmism

Any enigmatic form of spiritual practice, often with a deep connection to nature

I’m a spiritual healer who works with numerology, crystals, and sacred geometry, and now I can just say that I practice zenigmism which makes things so much easier than having to overexplain myself to uninterested people and people will understand the kind of work that I do, then I only need to explain more to people who will actually be interested in my practice.

Zeigarnik effect

In psychology, the Zeigarnik effect (named after Lithuanian-Soviet psychologist Bluma Zeigarnik) postulates that people remember unfinished or interrupted tasks better than completed tasks. In Gestalt psychology, the Zeigarnik effect has been used to demonstrate the general presence of Gestalt phenomena: not just appearing as perceptual effects, but also present in cognition.

The Zeigarnik effect should not be confused with the Ovsiankina effect, an urge to complete tasks previously initiated. Maria Ovsiankina, a colleague of Zeigarnik, investigated the effect of task interruption on the tendency to resume the task at the next opportunity.

I can't stop thinking about that unfinished novel; it's like the Zeigarnik effect is haunting me, making it impossible to focus on anything else until I get back to it.
