    Introducing The Art of Slowing Down from The Science of Happiness. Follow the show: The Science of Happiness What happens when we slow down enough to really experience art? We visit a museum to discover how slow looking at art can cultivate awe, empathy, and a greater sense of connection in a distracted world. Summary: Art has the power to move us emotionally, physically, and socially—but only if we take the time to truly engage with it. As part of our Cities of Awe series, this episode of The Science of Happiness explores what happens when we slow down and really look at a piece of art. We visit the Nevada Museum of Art to look at the science and practice of slow looking—how it can deepen empathy, presence, and everyday meaning. How To Do This Practice: Choose One Piece and Commit to Staying With It: Pick a single artwork, photograph, object, or even a scene in nature. Set aside about 15 minutes and put away distractions—especially your phone. The goal is not to “figure it out,” but to stay present long enough for your experience to deepen. Spend Time Noticing the Form: For the first five minutes, focus only on what you see. Notice the shapes, textures, colors, lines, patterns, shadows, movement, or composition. Let your eyes wander slowly across the piece and observe details you might normally miss. Pay Attention to Your Emotional Response: For the next five minutes, shift inward. What feelings arise as you look? Curiosity, comfort, sadness, awe, tension, delight, nostalgia? Instead of labeling the experience as simply “I like it” or “I don’t,” explore the full range of emotions and reactions that emerge. Let Your Mind Make Associations: For the last five minutes, allow the artwork to lead your thoughts elsewhere. What memories, people, places, or ideas come to mind? Does it remind you of something from your own life or spark questions about the world, history, or humanity? Follow the associations without judging them. Stay Open to Complexity and Discomfort: Some works may bring up conflicting or uncomfortable emotions. Rather than rushing past them, give yourself permission to sit with them.  Read the full study here. Scroll down for a transcription of this episode.

    Mid-Year Reset (Audio Workshop)

    Reflect on the past 6 months so you can refocus and get clear on what you want the next 6 months to look like. In this audio workshop Kelly leads you though a series of exercises that will help you reflect on the past and get clear on the future for the second half of the year. This episode starts with a freeform talk about why this time of year is ideal for a reset, then goes into guided journaling practices and ends with a guided meditation to help you plan your seed of intention. Reflect journal prompts What am I most proud of from the first half of this year? What did I say yes to that I should have said no to? What have I been avoiding that needs my attention? What version of myself showed up in the last 6 months — and is that who I want to be in the second half? Three questions to re-ignite with intention: What do I actually want the second half of this year to look like? What is the one thing that would make the second half feel joyous and abundant? What is one small, concrete thing I can do this week to move toward that?  Find Your Meditation Match- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Take the quiz here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ More Mindful in Minutes ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join the free 5-day Nervous system reset to overcome overwhelm⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Books ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Order Meditation For The Modern Family⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠You Are Not Your Thoughts: An 8-Week Anxiety Guided Meditation Journal⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ **⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Download 4 sample days from You Are Not Your Thoughts Here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠** Join MIM on Patreon here ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Order Meditation For The Modern Family⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Let's Connect Email Kelly your questions at info@yogaforyouonline.com Follow Kelly on instagram @yogaforyouonline Please rate, subscribe and review (it helps more than you know!)
