What is Observer Awareness?

Recognizing the presence that observes all experience — thoughts, sensations, emotions — without being any of them. The witness is the constant behind all changing content. Resting here brings profound peace.

Observer Awareness is a specific form of witness, which itself is a type of consciousness. You might experience this feeling in situations where consciousness is present, particularly when the circumstances align with the nuances that define observer awareness.
