I have gotten a few questions since our exploration about connecting with the sensations of awe and wonder.
How do we do this?
Especially during times when we feel like things are more challenging– how exactly do we connect to awe and wonder.
Some invitations to play with:
Step outside & look up.
The sky, the trees, the way sunlight filters through the clouds—nature is always offering awe if we slow down enough to notice.
Engage your senses fully.
Touch something textured. Smell the air after rain. Feel the warmth of a cup in your hands. Let yourself be absorbed in sensation.
Seek small wonders.
A child’s laughter. The pattern on a leaf. The way water swirls as you pour it. Life is layered with tiny miracles. Open your eyes to notice little things that ping inside you as relief, joy, pleasure, awe, surprising, lovely, beautiful, etc.
Pay attention to your dreams.
Dreams hold powerful imagery that goes beyond the rational mind. Open up to remembering your dreamspaces and notice what symbols are showing up in your world. These can often be quite miraculous and awe inspiring.
Remember something that once took your breath away.
A sunset at the top of a mountain. A song that moved you. A moment of pure love. A rainbow stretching across the sky. Let yourself feel it again.
Pause & ask: What is beautiful in this moment?
Even in the midst of struggle, wonder can be found. Beauty and noticing beauty can be a powerful way to bring yourself back to something more.
If you’re in a funk, feeling drained, or needing a reset—pause. Look around. Let awe find you.
Because even here, even now, there is something waiting to be seen. ✨
I allow myself to be impacted by awe and wonder.
And, if you are looking for a powerful portal back to your self, and connecting to awe and wonder, I would love to invite you to explore a 1-1 Somatic Healing Weekend Retreat.
This is a potent space where you are held and supported. A chance for your Body and Being to reconnect with yourself at your core, release what is no longer needed, amplify your essence and open up to awe, wonder, potential, and possibility.
I’m now booking weekends for Spring and Summer 2025
