Wellness Self-reflection is the process of consciously examining one’s thoughts, behaviours, emotions, and experiences to gain deeper insight into oneself.

It involves looking inward to evaluate one’s actions, decisions, and motivations in order to understand why one thinks or behaves in certain ways and how one can improve or grow.

This practice is often used for personal development, emotional growth, and decision-making, as it helps individuals make sense of their experiences and align their actions with their values and goals.

Key Aspects of Self-Reflection:

1. Awareness: Self-reflection requires understanding of your internal processes, like emotions, beliefs, and thought patterns.
2. Evaluation involves assessing the effectiveness of your actions, behaviours, or choices and determining whether they are serving you well or need adjustment.
3. Growth: The ultimate goal of self-reflection is personal growth, as it helps identify areas for improvement, foster better decision-making, and lead to positive change

Benefits of Self-Reflection:

• Improved Emotional Intelligence: It helps you understand and manage your emotions and empathise with others.
• Better Decision-Making: Reflecting on past experiences helps refine your future choices by learning from mistakes and successes.
• Increased Self-Awareness: It cultivates deeper knowledge of your strengths, weaknesses, and personal values.
• Stress Reduction: Self-reflection can provide clarity and reduce stress by helping you understand and process challenging experiences.

Common methods of wellness self-reflection include journaling, meditation, or simply setting aside quiet time to think. Regular practice can lead to a more mindful and intentional approach to life.

Say these daily, and believe them- for your mind to change and be more optimistic!
