Yet what does this mean? How can we 'know ourselves' and where might this journey of exploration begin and end?</p><p>In this week's episode, we explore the quality of self-awareness, thinking about why this level of conscious awareness is more needed than ever in our world. From exploring the qualities that make up the 'self' (e.g. mind, body, heart, soul) to the journey to find our core essence, this conversation meanders to the depths and back of the human experience, touching upon some of the key practices, tools, approaches and inquiries we can take to become more self-aware and, as a result, more consciously connected to the world around us.</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode we reference the following:</p><p><br></p><ul><li><a href=\"https://brenebrown.com/book/atlas-of-the-heart/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Atlas of the Heart</a> - Brene Brown (book)</li><li><a href=\"https://thoughtboxeducation.com/cards\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Triple WellBeing practice cards</a> - ThoughtBox (card deck)</li><li><a href=\"https://kids.britannica.com/kids/article/medicine-wheel/636564\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">The Medicine Wheel</a> - ancient indigenous map (website)</li><li><a href=\"https://dauntbooks.co.uk/shop/books/watching-the-english/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Watching the English</a> - Kate Fox (book)</li><li><a href=\"https://eckharttolle.com/power-of-now-excerpt/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">The Power of Now</a> - Eckhart Tolle (book)</li><li><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELpfYCZa87g\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Neuroplasticity in action</a> - Sentis (video)</li><li><a href=\"https://www.cnvc.org/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">NVC - The Centre for Non-Violent Communication </a>(website)</li><li><a href=\"https://www.scottishpoetrylibrary.org.uk/poem/guest-house/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">The Guesthouse</a> - Jalāl al-Dīn Muḥammad Rūmī (poem)</li></ul>","author_name":"ThoughtBox Education"}
