Self-Awareness for Everyone
Applied Guidance for Mindfulness
Meet Your Host
I am MJ Blehart - a dreamer, philosopher, geek, writer, editor, amateur photographer, and medieval fencer/herald/
re-enactor. I’ve been writing fiction since I was 9 and have been blogging regularly for more than 10 years.
I believe that Consciousness Creates Reality. Thus, I’m certain that we have the power to make our lives into whatever we believe we can. And that begins with self-awareness.
I have the pleasure of serving as your guide through easy-to-use mindfulness tools, conscious reality creation, and other devices for unselfish self-awareness.
Currently, I live in New Jersey (near Philadelphia) with my wife and two feline overlords (cats).
Mental Health and Combatting “Resistance”
Mental health (emotional health and spiritual health, too) gets insufficient attention. But self-awareness depends on your knowledge of your health, wellness, and wellbeing.
Resistance is a force that stands against your work to be your best self. It frequently manifests as procrastination, excuses, indecision, and anything and everything that keeps you from doing your work.
How Does Self-Awareness Inform Your Identity?
Identity is complex. How you identify yourself varies depending on circumstances and situations.
Identity tends to get tied up in ego. Which adds to its utter artifice.
You are made up of a conscious mind and a subconscious mind.
Mindfulness is how you assume the control that’s rightfully yours.
Defining the Subconscious Mind, Conscious Mind, and Ego
All of us are made up of subconscious, conscious, and ego. But what are they?
Self-Awareness and Your Subconscious Mind
Self-Awareness and your subconscious mind reveals the deeply rooted aspects of you.
Within your subconscious are all your beliefs, values, and habits. You are likely aware of many. But there are also, quite probably, many that you are not so aware of.
Your subconscious takes in all that you experience, learn, see, think, feel, and whatnot. Then, because it lacks the filters of the conscious mind, many things it absorbs sit there and leave a lasting impression that you would not consciously choose.
