Summary

Self-awareness brings the person to deeper levels and within new realms of understanding social and emotional intelligences because the perception is focused on the contexts and meanings in which feelings or emotions arise. This chapter offers readers a multicultural perspective on what awareness means and how it can help to explore the social and emotional phenomena of a person’s world. Taoist and Buddhist perspectives open up the perspective on what awareness entails. This chapter explores how self-awareness is more than a cognitive endeavor, and is a phenomenal feature of the social and emotional intelligences.
