How to Differentiate Between Consciousness and Self-Awareness for Better Thinking and Mental Health

Consciousness is the instrument to trigger mindfulness of what's going on in our environment. We experience sights, sounds, tastes, tactile stimulation, and smells in collaboration with our sensory organs. Our neurons provides all the mental sensations of torment and delight, emotions, feelings, contemplations, images, concepts, dreams, ideology and world view to build our living encounter and a private world in our cognizant intellect.
Our life experiences are the objective things and occasions that we are deliberately aware of by our mental selves. All of us have a fabricated self, a mentally molded picture created by social conditioning, cognitively evidenced by recollections of past life events and strengthened by the reality of the inevitable downfall of our physical bodies.
Self-awareness is an imperceptible fabrication of the human intellect, in which we must secure our interests, defend well-being, and foster the advancement of our welfare. Self-awareness is the acknowledgment of singularity, independence, separation, and isolation from the environment.
Neuroscientists can distinguish the activities of consciousness as electromagnetic pulsations, playing and interacting inside the neuronal network, sending and receiving digital messages between trillions of infinitesimal cells all over the physical body.
However, consciousness is an independent, imperceptible, undetectable, and creative life force that has allowed us to have a sense of self-awareness. It is the life source, actuating all the physical and natural organic functions, physiological workings, and psychological realities of human existence.
Consciousness and biological sensory organs can sense what’s happening in a person's near region by accepting various data of sights, sounds, tastes, and material sensations. The cognitive brain summarizes all of the information. The brain turns all the information into a subjective and meaningful portrayal of our mental encounters in phonetic translation and representation of the external world in the cognitive content of self-awareness.
In this manner, we see things, recognize events, and distinguish people with names and identities all around us. In the mental construct of a conceptive and discerning private world, we have life implications and objectives so that all of us can survive as well as thrive safely, soundly, and comfortably in fulfillment and prosperity. At least, that is the goal.
