What if you could have more satisfaction in your life? Strengthen your problem-solving skills? Raise your awareness and intuition? Change your attitude about things you dislike? Be more creative? More innovative? Enjoy waiting in lines?
And what if the power to affect all these things could be attained in the simple, yet powerful, process of a walk?
This week, we do something a little different for our 25th Episode of Where There’s Smoke. We invite you to take a walk with us. We are joined by Alexandra Horowitz, author of On Looking, as we literally walk a few blocks of New York City — exploring the power of paying attention and observation to change our lives.
Alexandra Horowitz is the author of the #1 New York Times best-selling Inside of a Dog: What Dogs See, Smell, and Know, On Looking: A Walker's Guide to the Art of Observation, and, most recently, Being a Dog: Following the Dog into a World of Smell. She teaches canine cognition and creative nonfiction at Barnard College, Columbia University, where she runs the Horowitz Dog Cognition Lab. Alexandra lives in New York City with her husband, the writer Ammon Shea, her son, and two large, highly sniffy dogs. (And a dog-friendly cat.)
