Laura Francois, founder of the research collective Awe Exchange, who hosted a “Room of Awe” at our recent festival in Tangier, thinks that awe can mobilize and empower social action. She’s specifically interested in what might happen if eco-anxiety were replaced with eco-awe.
All creativity requires letting go. We let go by having some fun. We have some fun by staying curious. We stay curious by being 100% present for what's unfolding. The antidote to product-anxiety is process-delight. Become more focused on process & you just might sneak up on awe.
