What is one's consciousness? (6)
Self awareness is a very big and deep thing. When the feelings/emotions flare up, then the equanimity of the mind is broken and the self-awareness ends. mind is reactive natured, that's why it is difficult to keep equanimity in mind.

Consciousness is your individual awareness of your unique thoughts, memories, feelings, sensations, and environments. Essentially, your consciousness is your awareness of yourself and the world around you. This awareness is subjective and unique to you.

Are you talking about one's consciousness or Universal consciousness? Consciousness is your individual awareness of your unique thoughts, memories, feelings, sensations, and environments. Essentially, your consciousness is your awareness of yourself and the world around you. This awareness is subjective and unique to you.

Many people are aware of counsciousness not just within the boundaries of human limitations of the world around them and their interaction within it'.

I am unclear as to how you've reached this conclusion. Are you saying that your emotions are not in your awareness? Or that for some, they react unaware, perhaps until a later time?There's a high degree of determinism active here, in that our bodies, including the brain, are already in reaction to a stimulus .03 seconds before we are aware of the stimulus and or our action or reaction to it.
I have no issue with equanimity since it reorders chaos and that too is most helpful in determining future creations in order to avoid repetitive or unwanted reactions.
As well, there is only mind (consciousness), so equanimity is always there, one just isn't always aware of it, or to put it more succinctly the mind is 'other focused' and doesn't notice equanimity and or the lack thereof.
Very big and very deep are odd ways to describe self awareness dontcha think?

What is the Mind?
by His Holiness the Fourteenth Dalai Lama There is little agreement among Western scientists about the nature and function of mind, consciousness
One of the fundamental views in Buddhism is the principle of “dependent origination.” This states that all phenomena, both subjective experiences and external objects, come into existence in dependence upon causes and conditions; nothing comes into existence uncaused. Given this principle, it becomes crucial to understand what causality is and what types of cause there are. In Buddhist literature, two main categories of causation are mentioned: (i) external causes in the form of physical objects and events, and (ii) internal causes such as cognitive and mental events.
