Importance of being self aware

Knowledge is the supreme power of everything. As the topic says we have to be self-aware. Maybe we have been self aware once. I wanted to write this article for people who feel insecure in their life. Thinking about self-awareness let's just take health for now and discuss. I would like everyone to think one simple fact. Do Lions or tigers have doctors in their group? Every individual lion or tiger or elephant are all self-aware. If they are not feeling well they know how to heal themselves. They will not have any necessity to go to the doctor and heal their pain using painkillers.

Are we incapable of doing that? For all other things we are saying that we are top of the food chain but when it comes to illness we lose our self-confidence and blindly believe what a medical practitioner says. I completely agree with the fact that they are all experts because throughout their life they practice medicine.

My point here is that as a human every individual should be self-aware. At least the basic things in life. We shouldn't be so much dependent on others. When animals can do it, why not us? We are all intellectual beings and we should be able to do things by ourselves instead of being dependent on other beings. Health consciousness is a skill that every individual should develop. Even the living beings in wildlife eat only when they need and sleep only when they need. We are turning ourselves towards a forced mechanical life. This condition should change.

All the scientific advancements are important but it should not take us away from our true nature. I have seen dogs near my house searching for herbs in my locality to heal themselves when they are ill. This feature is available in all the living beings. I believe it should also be easy for human beings as well. If we have lost that skill, its time to get that skill back.
