To slow down in this fast-paced, stressful world by making a change in your career, life, etc.
A high-powered executive who's tired of the frenzied rat race may downcycle and go work at Starbucks while writing her first novel. A couple with a pricey city mortgage and two well-paying jobs may downcycle and retreat to the seaside and open a cafe/bookstore, and move into a small country cottage. Sounds nice, huh?

endwarfins

The rush of neurotransmitters and neuropeptides triggered specifically by watching the Seven Dwarfs march home singing "Heigh-Ho" — that particular high of pickaxes, whistling while you work, and communal domestic bliss in a cottage built for men half your height.
I only meant to watch the Heigh-Ho scene for the endwarfins, and then it was two hours later and I'd watched the whole movie.

Endwarfins aren't just a Snow White thing — I get the same hit off the Lollipop Guild in Oz.
