Awakening to Awe is a self-help meditation on one of the most profound experiences of living--the sense of awe. Awe is the humility and wonder--amazement--before creation. It is also an attitude that can be both healing and life-transforming, particularly in our "awe-depleted" age. Through an in depth focus on people's life stories (including that of the author), this volume explores the nature and power of awe for individuals, for societies, and for the potential course of humanity.
