The Gift of Perception

from Express Yourself! Hosted by The Express Yourself! STAR On-Air Teen Team

What is perception? Perception comes from the Latin word "perceptio" which means receiving, collecting, an action of taking possession with the mind or senses. Perception is an intuitive understanding of something, the understanding of an impression. Or is it, as a Google definition proclaims, a way of regarding, understanding, or interpreting something; a mental impression?" Is "perception" synonymous with "judgment" or "belief"? Does it have an unmistakable subjective, even illusory, quality? Join Hosts Asya Gonzalez and Henna Hundal as they dissect, debate, and discuss this mode of communication. In Health Rap, Alex Pawlakos examines how a person's perception of their own health and health risks has important implications for their actual health.
