Awe Walk
Taking a walk outside and making an effort to look at the things around you
“Awe walk” hasn’t been added to the Cambridge Dictionary yet – but they have noticed it’s been used quite a bit. The word “awe” means a feeling of respect. So when someone says they will take an awe walk, it means they’ll notice – and feel grateful for – all the small things around them.
The word was actually coined by the authors of a recent psychological study, which found older people who took awe walks felt more positive and less stressed over time.

Today on our awe walk we noticed a tree we’d never seen before.
