Yes, perceptions can change. Exposing yourself to new ideas and experiences helps reshape your perceptions over time. Also, consciously challenging your preexisting assumptions and judgments opens you up to new ways of perceiving. Some techniques that can help alter perception include:
• Trying new perspectives: see from other views and angles
Questioning beliefs: ask if your opinions are based on facts or biases.
• Staying open-minded: Be willing to accept different interpretations
• Observing mindfully: pay close attention to the details in the present moment.
