Wheel of Awareness

Every Thursday, we use the Wheel of Awareness meditation to connect and reflect within the team. You can download and use the meditations for free by clicking here.

 

Below is an image of the Wheel of Awareness. The creator, Dr. Dan Siegel, says the hub represents the experience of awareness itself — knowing — while the rim contains all the points of anything we can become aware of, that which is known to us. We can send a spoke out to the rim to focus our attention on one point or another on the rim. In this way, the wheel of awareness becomes a visual metaphor for the integration of consciousness as we differentiate rim-elements and hub-awareness from each other and link them with our focus of attention.
