Dacher Keltner: Awe Walk

2 Video Views·Nov 18, 2023

We're paying attention as tools for living — practices — emerge in this season of On Being conversations.

In our first episode, social scientist Dacher Keltner offers the “Awe Walk”. Next time you step outside…

1) Go “in search of awe” 🧭

2) Welcome goosebumps✨(hear about the special kind that correlates with awe in this week's episode). Be on the lookout for these as a sensory cue, a sign to tune into something curious or surprising in your surroundings.

3) Gather these noticings along the way — see what they work in you.

4) You might try to capture some of this texture — with a photo, video, by reflecting with a friend, or journaling.

And… enjoy!
