The Power of Awe, with Michael Amster and Sean Fargo

When was the last time you lost yourself in a moment of awe? For many of us, awe is associated with life’s most significant, profound moments. But awe is ever present and always available, even in the ordinary.

In this episode, we learn about a 15-second practice that can help us become more available for the experience of everyday awe. Research shows that regularly connecting to this unique emotion reduces stress, anxiety, and burnout, minimizes chronic pain, and helps us live with more joy, clarity, ease and wonder.

Listen to Sean Fargo speak with Michael Amster about his new book, The Power of Awe: Overcome Burnout & Anxiety, Ease Chronic Pain, Find Clarity & Purpose - In Less Than 1 Minute Per Day.
