Consciousness is a state of being where an individual is
aware of himself and his environment. The reason as to why an individual is
able to question their purpose, their existence and the circumstances happening
in their moment.
During Freud’s time, consciousness came to being when he introduced the theory
of the conscious mind. However, when behaviorism came along, consciousness diminished.
After a while got back when humanism rose to integrate the importance of
self-actualization and awareness.
