In this episode of Happy Enough, we explore awe \u2014 the emotion that can make you feel surprisingly small, and at the same time happier. To break down the science behind awe and why it makes us feel better, Garvia speaks with Dacher Keltner, professor of psychology at UC Berkeley and the author of \u2018Awe: The new science of everyday wonder and how it can transform your life\u2019. They discuss how awe affects our bodies and simple ways to incorporate it into our lives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For the best listening experience and to never miss an episode, follow Happy Enough on your favourite podcast&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":166138,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[115339,49,48,115340,115338,85781,39096,85779,10400,85780,1399,85778,1404,115341,66],"class_list":["post-246067","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-science","tag-awe","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-dacher-keltner","tag-giving","tag-happiest-people","tag-happiness","tag-happy-enough","tag-life","tag-living-better","tag-nopolly","tag-ordid3803586671pod","tag-podcast","tag-podcast-episode-id-2973a3f5-9541-4a26-8896-78b60af5dd86","tag-science"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/246067","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=246067"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/246067\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/166138"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=246067"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=246067"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=246067"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
