About Awed
Awed is a daily ritual designed to help you experience awe in your everyday life.
What is Awe?
Based on research by psychologist Dacher Keltner in his book Awe: The New Science of Everyday Wonder and How It Can Transform Your Life, awe is a powerful emotion that makes us feel part of something larger than ourselves.
