This thesis reflects upon a research journey which was motivated by the author‟s personal desire to become more self-aware and be more connected and balanced in body, mind and spirit; and by her professional ambition to provide a more productive space for clients seeking adult guidance and for adult students returning to education, that would welcome and promote all parts of their selves and their narratives. A narrative inquiry approach was taken to the research which focuses on the relevance of recognising all aspects of self – body, mind and spirit; on exploring and experimenting with Mindfulness and Mindfulness practices; on the reflexive potential of Personal Journaling as a tool for learning, recording and researching; and on the power of narrative and storytelling. The thesis will be of interest to anyone passionate about self-development, professional development and self-awareness; and any caring professional, adult guidance counsellor, or educator, interested in developing tools to use with clients and learners to enhance their self-awareness as individuals and help them create more meaningful connections with their learning.
