Manage episode 430693431 series 2000422
Take a moment to appreciate the beauty and vastness of the sky. Dacher Keltner guides us through a practice of pausing to turn your gaze to the sky as a pathway to awe, creativity and wonder.

Practice:
- Go someplace where you feel safe and also have a nice view of the sky.
- First, focus on your breathing. Take a few slow inhales and even slower exhales. As you breathe in and out, relax your shoulders, your hands, and your face.
- On the next breath in, look up at the sky. Notice how vast it is.
- Breathing naturally, notice everything you can about the sky. What colors are present? Are there any clouds? Do you see any gradation of light?
- Expand your gaze to get the fullest view and sense of the sky that you can. Spend a few moments taking it in.
- On the final deep breaths in and out, reflect on how doing this practice has made you feel.
