Life review
Life review is a process that involves a thorough examination and reflection on one's past experiences, memories, and life events. This process often involves the identification and examination of significant themes, patterns, and lessons learned throughout one's lifespan. Through life review, individuals can gain a deeper understanding of their own identity, values, and beliefs, and how these have shaped their present circumstances and future outlooks. It can serve as a tool for personal growth, self-discovery, and the promotion of a sense of meaning and purpose in life.
