Beauty isn’t just a matter of taste. Across nature—atoms, stars, shells, flowers, faces—beauty shows up with striking consistency, wearing the same signatures: symmetry, balance, wholeness, and effortless coherence.
The Origins of Beauty paper explores a simple, reassuring idea: beauty naturally emerges when creation organizes from a center outward. When a center is clear and undistorted, the “field” around it gathers parts into harmony—and beauty becomes the visible (and felt) proof that coherence has taken hold.
Drawing on insights from John O’Donohue, Louie Schwartzberg, and modern psychology, this essay also shows why humans recognize beauty so deeply—and how we can live in beauty by emulating nature’s principles through CenterLife.
