When we see the namungos as part of our brain, we can begin to choose their ability to help us and support good choices. Whether we are aware or not, namungos are part of our lives and they can work for or against our mental and emotional health.

An awareness of namungos helps us to cultivate a growth mindset by asking questions such as:

1). How does each namungo apply to daily choices?

2). What risks will I take?

3). How can we make this fun and adventurous?

4). How will our past mistakes help?

5). How will we launch the new idea and organize a new way forward?

6). What is our best approach forward?
