If you're struggling to remember, or want to create more moments like this in your life, this episode is for you. One of the most powerful well-being practices available to you requires nothing more than slowing down and paying attention. In this episode, Julie dives into the science (and practice) of everyday awe — drawing on the groundbreaking research of Dr. Dacher Keltner at UC Berkeley — and shares four simple tools for cultivating more awe in your daily life. In this episode: We cover the science of awe — what it actually is, what it does to your brain and body, and why it might be the most underrated well-being tool we have. The \"small self\" effect — how awe shrinks self-focused thinking and anxiety and expands our sense of connection and purpose. The eight categories that most reliably trigger awe — and how to use them to design your personal awe practice. Why collective effervescence — the awe of shared experience — matters more than ever in a divided world. Four awe practices to start today: the Awe Walk, the Awe Journal, your personal Awe Triggers, and the 1000 Awesome Things. This week's micro-practice: Take a 10-minute awe walk. No phone. Eyes wide open. Find one thing that makes you go wow — and let it stop you for a moment.
