3. Show the connection of your thoughts, feelings and actions to actual
life situations.
The self-concept is represented by several
aspects of the self. It is conceived as
collection of multiple, context-dependent
selves. This construct believes that context
activates particular regions of self-
knowledge and self-relevant feedback
affects self-evaluations and affect. A deeper
look on the different aspects of the self can
identify specific areas for self-regulation,
stability and improvement .
In a nutshell, an individual is composed of three basic but
very different aspects of the self.
Physical or tangible aspects as they relate to the body
Intellectual and conscious aspects as they relate to the
mind
Emotional and intuitive aspects as they relate to the
spirit
All of these aspects of the self work together in a perfect
harmony when attention is paid to all three simultaneously.

ACTIVITY: ASSESS ASPECTS OF YOUR
DEVELOPMENT
Some of these are our own thoughts, feelings, and action which
unfortunately can be the source of much distress. It may involve
an emotion e.g. “My girlfriend left me and I cannot stop feeling
sad, lonely and unloved.” It can also be in the form of behavior
such as the inability to control one’s craving for food such as
cakes and chocolates.
But are we indeed really powerless to control our own maladaptive thoughts,
feelings and actions? The grandfather’s answer “The one you feed” is
deceivingly simple. The results of psychological research indicate that there
are at least four important concepts or ideas implied by the answer:
1. The mind is not the unitary entity it seems to us but consists of different
parts. For example in the story there are two wolves and the “you” that
chooses between them.
2. These parts of the mind/brain can interact and be in conflict with each
other
i.e the two wolves fight for dominance over our mind and behavior.
3. The “you” has the ability to decide which wolf it will feed.
4. Having made a choice, “you” can decide specifically how to “feed” or
nurture the selected wolf.
