The Power of Awe

The Power of Awe encapsulates the essence of the healing journey out of chronic mental and physical pain. I have witnessed hundreds of patients break from pain with these concepts. I am in awe of Eagle and Amster's work and how well it is presented.

The Power of Awe is an extraordinary book ... that helps us cultivate the fuller treasures and lifetime benefits of this gem of an emotion. Through practical methods of accessing awe at any moment, along with keen existential insights, this book takes us a major step toward a revitalised consciousness that is needed now.

Eagle and Amster's A.W.E. Method, is an extraordinary technique for synthesizing our panoramic understanding of mindfulness, biochemistry, neuroscience, and psychology, and turning it into a pure and conscious laser focus that resets the way we feel, while it opens up our minds to connectivity with others and clarity of thought within. Supported by a boatload of science, the fundamentals of this approach are easily understood and quickly implemented by anyone wanting to enhance their lives. I recommend it highly.

This unprecedented work introduces readers to the ingenious practice of microdosing on mindfulness. Jake Eagle and Michael Amster are wise and trustworthy guides who explain the science and impact of their research with clarity and confidence. Using relatable examples from clients and their own lives, the authors lead readers through this incredibly simple yet remarkably profound technique. The Power of Awe is a brilliant book that will revolutionize the way we think about mindfulness.

A brilliant and original take on the emotional state of awe that eloquently illustrates what science is showing: Awe is indeed powerful, able to dampen fight-flight responses and activate a parasympathetic state to support calm feelings and relaxation-the only state, we're learning, in which healing of both mental and physical challenges and disruptions can efficiently occur.

The Power of Awe is my idea of an antianxiety playbook for parents-and their kids. This simple A.W.E. Method can help turn the tide of our anxiety-ridden society in the most natural of ways-by showing us how to access awe, an emotion that is our birthright and that puts us in a state from which we can better access our resources. The A.W.E. Method is must-have addition to our antianxiety toolbox.

The Power of Awe is a breakthrough that integrates the wisdom of all great religious traditions with the insights of modern psychology to bring healing to anyone who seeks it

Jack Riemer, rabbi, author of Finding God in Unexpected Places

Safer and possibly more effective than psychotropic drugs, AWE also is more approachable for most of us than meditation. I would argue that the A.W.E. Method offers a simple, free and effective way to microdose on the biology of love.
