Thanks, Parul! There is a lot out there on this, both from more secular and more spiritual perspectives. Some places to start might be the On Being episode with Dachner Keltner on the science of awe (https://onbeing.org/programs/dacher-keltner-the-thrilling-new-science-of-awe/) and the associated book. Or perhaps try Anne Lamott's "Help, Thanks, Wow."
Really enjoyed reading this post, especially the part about how embracing death/loss can lead to more gratitude and aliveness. I was intrigued by what you said about finding awe and wonder in everyday life. Do you have any book/podcast/blog recommendations on this topic?
