Spend a day in nature with the Thrive by Design team. We host small group coaching sessions for women in AWE-inspiring locations around Shasta County. On these days we explore the power of AWE while we work through coaching modules to help you reduce stress, regain energy, and improve life balance. Our summer schedule will be up on the website soon.
Have you ever wondered about the essence of awe? What exactly constitutes an awe experience? Awe, in its essence, emerges when we find ourselves in the presence of something vast and beyond the confines of human scale—an experience that transcends our current understanding.
Numerous studies underscore the profound impact of awe on various facets of our lives. Notably, the presence of awe tends to alleviate the challenges we encounter in other domains.
The implications of awe are far-reaching:
Unifying Connection: Awe binds us together, nudging our perspective from the individualistic "me" to the collective "we." It fosters an awareness of our participation in something grander than ourselves.
Cognitive Transformation: Awe grants us fresh vantage points, even putting the brakes on our instinctual fight-or-flight reactions. It offers us a moment of pause—a chance to reflect.
Elevated Disposition: Awe's impact extends to our demeanor. After experiencing awe, individuals tend to exhibit greater generosity, ethical conduct, and fairness.
Physical Harmony: Remarkably, awe influences our physical well-being. As a positive emotion, it diminishes markers of inflammation within our bodies.
Healing Potential: Awe isn't merely confined to transient moments; it extends its influence to therapeutic realms. For instance, veterans seeking awe as part of their daily lives have reported a significant 30% reduction in stress levels, offering relief from PTSD.
Imagine an Awe Experience—a journey that unveils the wonders of the natural world and equips you with strategies to infuse awe into your daily existence. Delve into the prime sources of awe and discover how these encounters resonate at a fundamental level within your being. Harness the power of awe to decipher obstacles that impede the life you aspire to lead and formulate an actionable plan to overcome them. And here's a tantalizing hint: while nature isn't the foremost source of awe, you will indeed encounter this paramount source during your day.
The Awe Experience entails:
Enlightening sessions on awe, how to build our capacity to handle daily life, and learning to live life in congruence with our core identity (set against awe-inspiring backdrops).
Moments of introspection and guided journaling (in the embrace of awe-inspiring locales)
Collaborative coaching sessions, fostering dialogue about your insights and aspirations (within awe-inspiring settings)
Culinary delights to indulge your senses.
A day spent among kindred spirits, all dedicated to enhancing the quality of their lives.
