Today’s episode of The Mindful Minute is the second installment of a 2-part series dedicated to the emotion of awe.In this conversation, Jake Eagle, co-author of 'The Power of Awe', and I discuss the concept of 'awe' and its significance in handling existential anxiety and conquering stress. What I love about listening to these two discussions on awe is that you hear from someone who loves meditation and is ‘good’ at it {Dr. Michael Amster} and you hear from someone who loves meditation but struggles with it {Jake Eagle}. Together, I think we get a well-rounded look at the benefits in incorporating the A.W.E micro-mindfulness practice regardless of whether you also do a full sit-down meditation or not. Jake details the A.W.E. practice and he also guides a powerful meditation he developed to shift through different levels of consciousness (Safety, Heart, and Spacious consciousness). He explains how making these shifts several times a day can reset our nervous system, creating significant positive impacts. Jake was a licensed mental health counselor for the past twenty-seven years, and now practices as a meta-therapist, exploring what comes after therapy. Although Jake recognizes the value of therapy, he also recognizes the limitations, and has developed a method that accelerates and simplifies the process of personal growth. Individuals and couples can experience his work in live sessions or via a digital-platform.Jake is the author of Get Weird, Make the Most of Your Life, and co-founder of liveconscious.com, a community of people practicing skills for living and loving more consciously.In this episode, you can expect:00:05 Introduction and Welcome01:08 The Power of Awe: A Discussion with Jake Eagle01:55 Understanding the Emotion of Awe and Its Impact02:50 The Practice of Awe: A Guided Meditation07:19 The Concept of Micro-Dosing Mindfulness16:09 Different Types of Awe29:58 Understanding Consciousness and its Appropriate Use33:05 The Power of Meditation and Consciousness35:38 Existential Anxiety and its Connection to Consciousness42:01 Guided Meditation: the Practice of Shifting Levels of ConsciousnessLearn more about Jake Eagle here: <a href="https://liveconscious.com/" style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(17,85,204);">https://liveconscious.com/</a> and <a href="https://thepowerofawe.com/" style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(17,85,204);">https://thepowerofawe.com/</a> Sign up for my newsletter at <a href="https://merylarnett.substack.com/">https://merylarnett.substack.com/</a> to receive free mini meditations each week, creative musings, and more.Make a donation or learn more about my free offerings and live classes by visiting merylarnett.com.IG: @merylarnett                 #meditatewithmeryl
