Introspection

•Introspection is the examination or observation of one’s own mental and emotional processes. Through introspection, we can gain knowledge about our inner workings.

•Introspection is sort of like perception, but also unlike perception in that it doesn’t involve the five senses.  We don’t see, hear, smell, touch, or taste, to gain insights.

•Introspection involves looking inward to try to understand ourselves.


PLAY

Noun- Activity engaged in for enjoyment and recreation especially by children

Verb – Engage in activity for enjoyment and recreation rather than a serious or practical purpose.

Adult Play – Just like the childhood version, doesn’t need a goal. You’re playing for play. Enjoy yourself.  Forget all your stress and the demands of our modern world. Let Yourself go.
