When I was burned out, I was directionless, overwhelmed, and depressed. What helped me out wasn't a check list or spreadsheet...it was meaningful objects. There's a new way to change & it involves beauty. Would love your thoughts! #burnout #neuroaesthetics #change www.jolyean.com/blog/we-need...

This gives me hope! Although not the initial intent of the question, a trend towards the analog, tangible in an increasingly distracted world will expand many aspects of well-being.

So thankful for Dr. Chatterjee’s work! Particularly loved his insights on bringing “homeyness”, moments of fascination, & coherence to spaces. I believe significant objects of meaning can bring homeyness to professional & personal environments. #neuroaesthetics #aestheticresearch #meaningfulobjects

My new favorite word: sonder.

It's the profound awareness that every person you encounter has experienced a lifetime of hopes, fears, loves, and heartaches that you'll never know.

Each moment of sonder is a reminder to appreciate how little we truly grasp about others' lives.

My favorite thing about #bluesky so far: actually being excited about connecting with folks & their content again. Could social media be back? (No whammies, no whammies🤞)
