The Powerful Impact of NATURE
Nature LOVES Variety & Societies Hate Variety
Milton Diamond
Get into NATURE
Try connecting with this feeling for even just a couple minutes a day and NOTICE the difference. The key is you have to FEEL the Awe even if remembering it. Try looking at a picture which evokes this feeling. If you cannot access the feeling, don't blame yourself... it is likely your depression. Try exploring other forms or sources of awe, both in subject and in method of intake, such as: sound, taste or sensation.
Connecting with AWE NeuroMeditation
Awe is beneficial for everyone, especially when dealing with anything difficult. Connecting with this feeling is restorative for the brain and the nervous system (for heart, mind and body). Do this often - even for a few minutes when you are stressed/overwhelmed/hurting. This practice guides you through remembering, with all of your senses, an experience of being in a place where you FELT AWE.

The system responds and can return to calm when you send it messages of safety. This practice increases feelings of inner safety, and is helpful when you need a buffer from the world, a deep sense of safety, unconditional love and support, or when you are doing difficult work.
