Self-Awareness

Self-Awareness

Self-awareness involves seeing yourself clearly and objectively through being introspective. Self-awareness involves paying attention to our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours and examining the reasons behind them. In short, self-awareness is about being honest with yourself and focusing on the reality of your behaviour. 
 
Benefits of becoming self-aware can include: 
  • Positive self-development
  • Being able to see other’s perspectives 
  • Increased self-control 
  • Increased confidence 
  • Communicating more effectively 

How can you increase self-awareness?

There are many different approaches to therapy and modalities that can help individuals become more self-aware. For example, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) can help individuals to examine connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, to better understand themselves.
