put a little awe in your life | English LIstening

Hear You Go podcasts are AWESOME, aren't they?

 We use the adjective "awesome" a lot these days, maybe too much. It comes from the noun awe

What is awe, and why should we try to put more awe in our lives?

Should we wait for awe, or can we go out and find it? 

 We'll explore these questions in today's English Listening episode, and learn more about the topic of awe. The study of awe is new, but the more we learn about it, the more scientists and psychologists are discovering that awe has many benefits. It has benefits for our health, and for our communities and societies.

And if you want to learn more about awe after you listen to this episode and all the advanced English I use to talk about it, sign up for my newsletter to receive links to extra materials and resources.

Here is the link to Dacher Keltner's book: AWE: The New Science of Everyday Wonder and How It Can Transform Your Life.

Wild trillium I found on an awe walk. What do you find when you go for a walk?

I think many of us feel awe when we experience a sunset like this, especially near the ocean and mountains. Nature is a good source of awe.
