A great place to tackle your Ego mind is in a Sedona Soul Retrieval Retreat!
Do we have control over our Ego mind? It’s always so bazaar to me that I have something inside of me, my mind, that I don’t seem readily able to control. When insecurities come up that trigger us, we start acting out of this unconscious part of our self. Then, when we start recognizing that we are acting out, we may feel shame and beat our self up. If we remain in our Ego state, we will repeat the actions over and over.
What a vicious cycle we are in if we can’t stop acting out of the Ego mind. The process begins with being triggered and unconsciously acting out of the lower self. We do not even realize that we are triggered. Once we recognize this, we may still be unable to prevent the acting out of the lower self. However, as we continue to recognize the Ego in action, we have the ability to catch it and stop its progression. The more we slow down our minds and actions, the better chance we have of catching the sneaky Ego and not taking the actions it wants us to take.
The more we ask for help in this area, the more triggers will come because the universe wants to give you all the practice you need to heal that wounded place and stop acting out of that wounded space. Without the practice in a concentrated time, we wouldn’t learn. If our triggers only come every so often we are less apt to get the learning. So even though it’s not that much fun to be in a triggered state for an extended period of time, it forces us to pay attention which is a necessity to learn and move on.
As much as I do this work for others, I am always humbled when I am reminded that I am also on this path of self-actualization just like you. When I get hit hard with it, I really have to be careful not to go into shame and beat myself up. I then have to practice compassion and love for this wounded part in me. If we don’t stay awake, a lot of this can slip right by us and the lessons go unlearned and missed. But not for long, because they always come back around and maybe the next time with more fury!
