Podcasts about Awe

AT&T acquires spectrum from EchoStar, Google gets more restrictive on installing apps, and Awe is about to drop.   How to Contact us: How to Listen:

Awe... that electric moment when reality suddenly expands beyond what you thought possible. Scientists tell us that experiencing awe literally rewires the brain. In those precious moments when we encounter something vast, something that makes us feel both infinitely small and profoundly connected, our neural pathways light up like constellations being born. Time slows. The chattering mind quiets. And suddenly... you're here. Fully here. Most people go weeks, months, even years between true moments of awe. Starving for that expansion, that breathless recognition of life's magnificence. But what they don't realize is that awe isn't just found... it can be activated. Like a dormant frequency within you, waiting to resonate. Awe arrives like lightning splitting the sky of consciousness open. It's that sudden gasp when infinity touches your skin and every cell in your body remembers it's made of stardust. Feel it... that sensation spreading through you now, like golden honey flowing through your veins, warm and electric and alive. This is the feeling of standing at the edge of everything and nothing simultaneously. Where your heartbeat synchronizes with the pulse of galaxies spinning in the vast cathedral of space. Where a single breath contains eternities, and you realize... you are both the observer and the universe observing itself. Awe is liquid light pouring through the cracks in ordinary perception. It's the moment your boundaries dissolve like sugar in warm rain, and suddenly you're not just in the world... you ARE the world breathing itself into existence. Every atom singing. Every particle dancing in the infinite ballroom of being. After listening to this episode just once, you might notice how the space around you already feels different. How your breathing has naturally deepened. Because awe doesn't require mountains or oceans or galaxies... sometimes it begins with a single moment of recognition. This moment. Where everything is about to change.  

Pastor Dru Rodriguez reflects on becoming aware of God's presence as holy ground in everyday places, inspired by Moses at the burning bush in Exodus 3. He encourages asking God to captivate our attention so we recognize He is with us.

Following the announcement of Apple's upcoming "Awe dropping" event, on this week's episode of The MacRumors Show we talk through all of the new accessories rumored to debut alongside the iPhone 17 lineup. We take a closer look at Apple's invite for "Awe dropping;" the design could hint at the ‌iPhone 17‌'s new thermal system with vapor chamber cooling and a more heat-conductive aluminum chassis. The orange and blue also likely hints at the purported orange color option for the iPhone 17 Pro and the blue color finish for the iPhone 17 Air. New “Liquid Silicone" cases are rumored to debut alongside the ‌iPhone 17‌, as well as more premium "TechWoven" cases. TechWoven is expected to take the place of Apple's previous FineWoven and leather cases, but with improved durability. The ‌iPhone 17 Air‌ could also get a Smart Battery and an iPhone 4-style bumper case. All of the new cases are expected to feature support for a "Crossbody Strap," a new magnetic lanyard accessory. Meanwhile, the long-awaited AirPods Pro 3 could arrive at the event. The new model is expected to feature heart-rate monitoring, improved active noise cancellation, tweaked earbuds, and a slightly smaller charging case with a hidden capacitive pairing button. The ‌iPhone 17 Pro‌ may also offer reverse wireless charging for AirPods.

Join us (Dr. Henry Emmons and Dr. Aimee Prasek) as we dig into the concept of GOMO, the Guarantee of Missing Out, as a more empowering alternative to FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) and FOBO (Fear of Being Over). We'll talk about how making choices inherently involves letting go of other possibilities, which, though initially daunting, can lead to a sense of freedom and relief. We'll lean on insights from Oliver Burkeman's 'Four Thousand Weeks' and Barry Schwartz's 'Paradox of Choice,' as we explore some practical strategies to navigate the overwhelming array of choices in modern life and the art of letting go to make space for what you're most connected to.    If you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review us wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts!   Sources and Notes: Joy Lab Program: Take the next leap in your wellbeing journey with step-by-step practices to help you build and maintain the elements of joy in your life.

My guest is Dr. David DeSteno, PhD, a professor of psychology at Northeastern University. We discuss science, God and religion, including what science can and can't reveal about the existence of God and where religious faith and science do and do not align. We also discuss why questions about life's origins, miracles and the afterlife have persisted across time. Dr. DeSteno explains how religious rituals cause meaningful improvements in mental and physical health and how prayer and gratitude can markedly reduce stress, increase honesty and compassion and buffer against loneliness and despair. Finally, we explore what distinguishes religions and mission-based communities from cults, and we discuss the role that communities such as 12-step and Burning Man play in modern life.

Pastor Jenae Acevedo explains that fearing God is reverential awe, not terror, contrasting it with the fear of man that leads to people-pleasing and compromise. Drawing from Matthew 10:28 and her experience after reading John Bevere's The Awe of God, she calls us to prioritize God's will over human approval.

Join us (Dr. Henry Emmons and Dr. Aimee Prasek) as we dig into this phenomenon of 'pathological productivity.' We'll talk about how over-focusing on productivity can lead to mental and physical health issues, why us humans have a deep aversion to idleness, why rest can feel "bad," and most importantly, how we can get out of this kind of pathological productivity and embrace rest and play in ways that nourish us.   If you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review us wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts!

Join us (Dr. Henry Emmons and Dr. Aimee Prasek) as we talk about "joyless urgency," a brilliant phrase coined by Marilynne Robinson. The short story is that our modern kind of hustle culture and constant busyness often leads to little personal fulfillment. So what's causing all this urgency? We've highlighted some important reasons in some recent episodes (see links below). Today, we'll introduce another one: too much social media. We'll focus on something called "problematic engagement" and how excessive use on social media can fuel a cycle of anxiety and temporary relief followed by more anxiety and temporary relief and then more anxiety... you get the picture. Awareness is the first step to get out of this cycle and we'll hit on that a bit in this episode. And be sure to tune in for the next several episodes as we'll cover some practical steps you can take to get out of joyless urgency and back into joy.   If you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review us wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts!   Sources and Notes: Joy Lab Program: Take the next leap in your wellbeing journey with step-by-step practices to help you build and maintain the elements of joy in your life.

As Christians, we often talk about fearing a God who embodies ultimate love and kindness—a comforter and provider—who sacrificed everything to grant us a new life. But shouldn't our fears be directed towards evil rather than God? Isn't it natural for us to fear things like heights, creatures, death, missing out, being alone, or failure? So, why should we fear such a loving God? What does this healthy fear truly mean? Join us for the final week of our 'in Awe' series as we come together to understand how a posture of reverence toward God breaks us free from all of the other fears we live in and how this healthy fear can empower us to be a blessing in the transformation of our loved ones and our community.There lies power in fearing our God. And it is a blessing not just to you but to everyone around you through you. Let us gather to unite in Him to be blessed and to be a blessing!!✅ Check in to let us support you in your journey.

We all carry a little hogwash — the untruths we've convinced ourselves are real.In this solo episode, Bart unpacks the emotional and psychological baggage we carry disguised as “logic”: the thoughts like “I'm not good enough”, “They must be mad at me”, or “I always mess things up.” Spoiler alert:it's all hogwash.Through personal stories, science-backed insights, and a practical truth-vs-hogwash exercise, Bart guides listeners to recognize triggers, reject negative narratives, and rewrite their inner dialogue. You'll learn how small shifts in thought lead to big shifts in life — moving from stuck to stable, from fear to forward motion.Major Takeaways & LessonsMost of What You Think… Isn't True80% of daily thoughts are negative, and 95% are repetitive. Labeling the false ones as “hogwash” helps break the cycle.Hogwash = Lies Dressed Up as LogicThoughts like “I'm not good enough” or “They're mad at me” feel real, but they're often assumptions rooted in fear, not fact.Use the Hogwash vs. Truth ToolMake two columns. In one, list your negative self-talk (“hogwash”); in the other, write the truth that challenges it.Triggers Create False StoriesHogwash often begins at the moment of emotional trigger. Recognizing the origin of the story helps you rewrite it.You Can Reframe Your StoryWhether the trigger is from childhood or yesterday, your belief can shift. Start by noticing it, naming it, and replacing it.Writing It Down Frees Your MindStudies show that writing down worries moves them out of your subconscious, reducing repetitive, anxious thoughts.Negativity Bias is Real — But You Can Balance ItOur brains are wired to detect threats. But when we call out hogwash, we make space for gratitude, hope, and awe.From Hogwash to HealingBart shares a personal story about childhood trauma and how identifying the untruths it planted helped him heal and help others.The First Step to Awe is Clearing the LensHogwash clouds our ability to see joy, hope, and potential. Recognizing and clearing it is what reveals the “glimmer.”You're Not AloneEveryone carries hogwash. The difference is: Most people don't stop to question it — but you do.Plus, Bart introduces the first step in his new “Trigger → Glimmer → Awe” framework — helping you feel better, do better, and be better.Resource & Links:Bart Berkey: MostPeopleDont.com | LinkedIn

The renowned play researcher, Dr. Brian Sutton-Smith, said that the "The opposite of play is not work, the opposite of play is depression." There's a lot of truth to that. In this episode, we (Dr. Henry Emmons and Dr. Aimee Prasek) explore how play and having fun is woven into our human nature and why it's so essential for our mental health. We'll even touch on some surprising facts about how old rats can grow more brain cells than younger rats (it applies to humans too!) and why even retirees, who might experience every day as a holiday, report increased happiness on federal holidays. We hope you come away from this episode with more motivation to rest and play.  If you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review us wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts!

August's intense energies are here—but you're not meant to just survive them… you're meant to THRIVE. In this sacred channeling, Archangel Michael delivered a powerful light transmission to upgrade your energy field for the month ahead.  Together, we'll:

When was the last time you were genuinely wowed? With all the content we consume on the daily it's getting more and more difficult to find these moments of amazement. But the truth is that we were made to be astonished. Whenever we neglect that part of who we are our souls shrink a little. Psychologist Jonathan Haidt observes that screen addiction damages our capacity for transcendence. His research and others' affirm what the Bible has been talking about for millennia: the heavens are telling the glory of God. Awe is a gateway to God. It reminds us of our smallness and God's grandeur.Become New is here to help you grow spiritually one day at a time.

Have you ever wondered why you are created the way you are? Have you ever wondered why you are where you are? Or have you ever regretted your choices of life, place, career, etc? You were not created by accident. God knows your purpose even before you were placed in your mother's womb. Do you sometimes feel lost and alone? Or do you sometimes feel abandoned, betrayed, and helpless? If you have even a hint of doubt about your worth, this message is for you!Join us for the third week of our 'In Awe' series, as we have our special guest, a stem cell scientist who is going to show what our DNA says about God.

Here's my interview with Keiichi Matsuda, Designer and Director of Liquid City, that was conducted on Thursday, June 12, 2025 at Augmented World Expo in Long Beach, CA. In the introduction, I read through Matsuda's essay titled "Gods" (also uploaded here) where he explores the idea that AI should be more like pets and polytheistic and animistic familiars rather than the more monotheistic approach where there's one true AI God represented by one of Big Tech's omniscient and all-powerful AI systems. This approach has lead Matsuda to developing a system of what he calls "parabrains" that is an interface for AI agents that goes beyond the narrative scripting capabilities that he was exploring in inworld.ai with his project MeetWol that I covered previously at AWE 2023. A lot of Matsuda's ideas were also explored in the speculative fiction short film called Agents that was produced in collaboration with what was a the time Niantic Labs and is now Niantic Spatial (check out my interview with Niantic Spatial at AWE 2025 for more on how they're using Matsuda's Parabrains system).

Drawn together by mystery, circumstance, and burgeoning camaraderie, the trio of Caoimhe Wake, Antristrophe Landrace, and Brontë Adelvys (plus the young prince's loyal servants) have already made their mark on Perpetua. The fires of Burzin have been quenched, and the town glows again under sacred light. Now they are called east, towards new mystery, old friends, and a city of Iron. To get there, they must decide: Travel the long, but safe path by foot out of the desert and into the savannah, where the high grass teems with charming life? Or rush north, across dangerous terrain, towards a restricted, Hexcloak-only train station, in hopes of catching a ride by rail to their destination: Cenn, the City of Iron Chains, whose inhabitants have spent millennia digging for clues about Perpetua's past. But they aren't the only ones traveling to Cenn: Every day, devotees of Castine, Living Metal, make their way towards the Ironclad Parade, hearts beating with emotion. Curiosity. Faith. Compassion. Awe. Anger. Fear. Pride. Love. One day, our heroes may think back on this journey to Cenn, and realize it was their last normal week, the final days before their lives changed forever, one more simple quest before they'd need to face new truths, before fated confrontations with hated rivals, eternal beings, and the only member of the Ennead who chooses to walk amongst his people. So gather round, and listen, as they step out beyond the little town where you first met them and, if they can catch their train on time, take their first strides… towards destiny.

CarlSr  begging the question XD WolfOConner Is this forum always like this or did I just come on a bad day?  Anyway, I'm saved right before leaving Burzin, so what exactly should I do?  XxZelgadyskXx  Wolf, don't leave! We need more good posters! (Love your StarFox guide by the way!)  Anyway, I'm not up to date on the guide, but my little brother lost my save file so i had to personally replay the whole game through this point over the weekend, and I think I can give some insight. Unforgiven is right that if you get to Springsong fast enough, there's no fight at all, and all the environmental loot is just there waiting for you to find it. But that's only the ENVIRONMENTAL LOOT, the chests, the fishing point, and the little interactable points. What you lose out on getting is anything from the enemies that would be here if you took too long. You can steal from them, and the boss has something that is (so far) totally unique in the game. So yes, you CAN get loot without any risk by going fast, but you miss out on the rewards from the fight (plus anything you can steal from the boss, if you took the Soul Steal ability from Rogue.) FriendofNei Haha whoops, didn't mean to cause all this chaos guys! Zel is totally right, and I thought I was making that clear with the loot tables attached to the fights. I'll be sure to make a note in the area description if this happens again! Btw, does anyone understand why the fight only happens if you take a longer time to get there? Shouldn't getting there first mean that it's still an unpurified echo or whatever?
