Kids are filled with a natural sense of wonder - have you noticed? An interesting bug. A cloud that looks like an elephant. The feeling of sand between their toes.
Somewhere along the way, we lose touch with it. We forget to stop and marvel at the beauty around us - or at least, we do it less often.
But today, LinkedIn Community, we hope you'll step outside for the solar eclipse and, for a moment or two, just marvel. Step back into that sense of wonder you had in bucketloads as a kid.
And, as a wellbeing company, we feel obliged to tell you that wonder is not just a nice feeling. In fact, research suggests that, as well as reducing stress and lifting our mood, awe can shift our perspective, helping us feel less wrapped up in ourselves and our problems, and more connected to the world around us.
So, if you get the chance later today, remember to look up (safely)!
