What Is "Beauty?"

What Is "Beauty?"

Our culture has many different perspectives about what “beauty” entails. Beauty isn’t all about just nice, lovely-looking things or people. It is more about an emerging fullness, a greater sense of grace and elegance, a deeper sense of depth, and a kind of homecoming for the enriched memory of your unfolding life.

This could include anything from the sunset on your way home to the budding magnolia in your driveway. It may also show up in the piano piece your child is learning for the first time or in your newborn’s smile.

Beauty’s Benefits

  • In our often hurried lives, it's easy to pass right by objects and experiences of beauty. Taking the time to appreciate and find beauty can actually promote our health, relationships, and well-being in several ways.
  • Research shows that when we engage in expressive outlets such as music, dance, poetry, and art, we can experience improved physical and mental wellbeing.

Beauty and Interpersonal Neurobiology

  • From the perspective of interpersonal neurobiology, the mind is able to flourish when its' domains are differentiated and linked, a process described as integration
  • Beauty encourages this integration process, encouraging present moment awareness, attunement, and emotional sensing between other people and objects
  • Engaging in expressive, artistic, aesthetic experiences supports our mind's ability to flourish
  • This is amplified when we can engage in such acts in the presence of a larger community and relationships with others.

Don’t look further if you love learning new things. A refreshing concept that provides quick ideas for busy thought leaders.

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Ghazala Begum

Even five minutes a day will improve your thinking. I've come across new ideas and learnt to improve existing ways to become more motivated, confident and happier.

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
