EP 36: Wonder
Show Notes

Today’s episode begins with Jamie, Lucy, and Avery exploring wonder: instances of wonder, how we experience it in the body, the benefits of wonder, and some of the cultural, personal, and developmental factors that impact our experiences of wonder. We identify 6 facets of wonder: openness, curiosity, bewilderment, hope, connection, and admiration, and we explore how creating “packs” in our lives can help facilitate wonder. 


Do try this at home: 

  • Incorporate time in your week to slow down and be present. 
  • Do less to allow space to connect with wonder. 
  • Intentionally tap into your 7-year-old self.
