The Awesome Experience
Awe experiences expand our personal boundaries and shift our attention away from ourselves. Awe makes us feel like we are something greater and helps us understand the perceived magnitude of our lives and surroundings. Awesome experiences can trigger a mix of vastness and admiration, leading to a unique blend of joy and respect. This emotional response is deeply rooted in our biological appreciation for what is considered extraordinary or beyond ordinary understanding. The feeling of awe can be triggered by nature, by people and their deeds and by music, just to name a few prompts creating the feeling of awesome.
Our experts in this area of the site explore how experiences labeled as “awesome” can lead to greater life satisfaction, increased positive emotions, and even a diminished sense of self, emphasizing a connection to something larger than oneself. Our experts believe that awe can improve our overall psychological well-being by expanding our perception of time and enhancing our life experiences. Sharing moments deemed “awesome” can significantly strengthen Relationships, creating shared memories and a mutual appreciation for the sublime or extraordinary. This communal aspect of awe can foster deeper connections and mutual bonding.
Experiencing awe may help increase our curiosity, and may help create a better academic experience and a greater willingness to engage with complex topics. So, let’s all try to create more awesome times for us and those around us.
