WOW !! What a subject & where do I start?!
I will do my best to share knowledge that I have gained over the last 2 years on ‘The Ego Mind‘ & hopefully you will find it useful & helpful.
So I will begin by explaining that we, as humans are made up of … MIND – BODY – SPIRIT ❤
Your body… a miracle. Every intricate detail is a phenomenon & it is the physical part of YOU. The part that holds energy like any other object on this physical Earth.
Your spirit … is YOU or as some would say – your consciousness or your soul. This is the essence of ‘who you are’ … everything that makes YOU unique & true. The entity that never dies & is eternal.
Your mind is the computer programme .. the part that keeps you safe when understood properly but unfortunately the part that can represent the darkness within you if you are not living in awareness & in control.
ALL 3 OF OUR ANATOMY NEED DAILY PRACTICE – NURTURING & DISCIPLINE.
If your physical needs are met & your spirit is not nourished or nurtured you become out of balance. Your spirit can become depleted & detached.
The same with your mind, if you do not have conscious awareness or understanding of the computer programme ( EGO ) it will become dominant & a ‘tyrant in your head.’
If your spirit is nourished & yet you don’t have discipline with your physical body, it can lead to isolation. You may not be grounded & can be easily influenced or in awe of other humans. You live on the physical Earth. You must be in complete control of your mental & emotional self – leaving footprints in the sand.
I will try to explain how to recognise the difference between the Ego mind & your Spirit & how the 2 communicate to us.
Your spirit is your connection to source, the light – God – the universe whatever you wish to call it. Your spirit communicates through your emotions & feelings. Unfortunately we are not educated on this part of us … from a young age a lot of us are taught to suppress our emotions & feelings by learning from the adults around us. We are punished when we get angry. We are told not to cry. We are told constantly what to do – where we are in danger … often discouraged because the adults guiding us are afraid that we may hurt ourselves. We are not allowed to be sad – grumpy or just generally in a bad mood without attention being drawn to us & told to ‘cheer up’ or ‘chin up.’
A lot of the adults that raise us have not been taught how to navigate through their own feelings & emotions & have suppressed them themselves from a young age. They couldn’t possibly teach us how to listen to ours. Your physical needs of shelter – food & water will have been met as a child but not your emotional needs.
But you can start to educate yourself. You can start to connect to your spirit within by listening to your guidance system that is your feelings.
When you feel positive emotions … joy – excitement – happiness – contentment – PEACE ❤ you are on the right path & your spirit is guiding you with these feelings to let you know – keep doing what you’re doing & do more of it!!
When you feel negative emotions … sadness – anxiety – depression – demotivated again your spirit is trying to warn you … this is not for you. Something in your life is bringing you down – not suited to you & you must change course.
Now when you are on the right path… your spirit is evolving – it is fulfilling its purpose therefore it is strong & you feel connected to your intuition. In today’s world this is the part of you that is fading away. This is the part of you that is your connection to source & TRUTH ❤ It is within YOU !!
We are now living in the ‘Age of the mind.‘ Our Western society that has us very much disconnected to Spirit & under the control of the ‘EGO.‘
2 years I have been studying this part of myself & I am still very much learning. The ego is hugely complex & does not have your best interest at heart. As I have described spirit as the light I would definitely describe the ego as the dark.
As I described earlier, the ego is the ‘tyrant in your head.’
It is that loud voice that will always make you suffer. We should be educated also about this part of us from a young age & I truly know the world would be a happier place !!
The ego is a manipulator – when you listen to the ego you will always make the wrong choices & your life will become chaotic. Your ego relates to ALL of the weighing emotions that you feel – guilt – shame – fear & these are never the right foundations for good – healthy choices. These emotions are also shackles & chains. They dim your light & weigh down on your spirit & I cannot emphasize enough how they are NOT TRUTH.
The reason I mention above about the age that we are living in now, is because it is the driving force behind fuelling the ego mind that is over powering most of us. The western world that we live in today is ‘material mad’ & materialism is the catalyst to darkness. The material world – our obsession with money – cars – holidays – houses – possessions is what has been created to distract us 100% from source… your spirit & nature.
It is also the comparison & the judgement that the material world creates… constantly looking for faults within each other – never willing to look in the mirror & take responsibility for your own actions – always pointing the finger. Again the ego mind has you suffering every minute of every day – that loud voice in your mind keeping you away from peace & harmony.
Living under the control of the ego will cause you to be uncertain of who you are – low self esteem – low self – confidence … NO SELF BELIEF!! Your vibration is of the lowest & with that you attract low vibration entitiys to you. Drama – heart break – anger & exhaustion will be your life. Then the physical aspect of you will begin to feel the shackles & the weights & it will begin to effect your health… your finances & your relationships.
Once in this negative cycle without the understanding of all I have explained above there will seem no hope. You will struggle to find a way up & out.
Knowing this information hopefully will help you start to decipher between the 2 parts of you that play such a huge role in your existence on this Earth
It is YOUR responsibility to learn about yourself – to understand who you are & to ignite that flame within & keep it burning bright.
Along the journey of self discovery – there will be many highs & lows. You have been programmed into this material world – distracted & disconnected which leads to confusion & stress a lot of the time. You have not been educated on the most important subjects in life – how you as a human function. Nor have you been given tools that can help you to reach your potential of living a healthy – happy – long life.
We have been taught that happiness is in the quick fixes, the materials & this is a complete lie. There is no other way to say it.
Happiness comes from inside of us ❤ Contentment is the key.
Now is the time to truly be alive. Be aware & fully conscious of everything that you do. ‘FEEL’ into yourself & be guided by your spirit.
If you are on the wrong path & you know this – then change !! Life is for living – do not let the fear of the ego hold you back. Break down the brick building that you have built around yourself & step out into the sunshine. You will be guided – pray – ask for help & it will be given. This was the promise made to us by Jesus but again we let the tyrant in our mind convince us not to reach out – to be alone – afraid – separated & deprived. This is not living but only you can make the changes.
When you start to take these small steps, never look at the mountain. Take each day & just 1 step at a time. If it is meant to be it will be easy. You will feel lighter. Your vibration will begin to heighten & your life will become calm & peaceful. You will live in harmony with all those around you that you love. You will feel fulfilled as you discover your main purpose on this Earth – that you are a unique individual – created to learn & live.
To experience life to the fullest of your ability & to be truly happy & content ❤
I hope that this has made some sense & given you some useful pointers.
Living in balance of mind – body – spirit ❤ is what we all need to be aiming for. It is what makes life worth living & a lot easier to navigate through. Listening to your guidance system & your intuition & having the strength to know what is right for you.
Here are ways of connecting to your spirit. Everyone is different so feel what is right for you.
- Being creative… wether that be art – sewing – baking – building.
- NATURE – when we need energy & peace let our divine Mother guide you.
- Meditation … doesn’t always need to be done sitting in quiet with eyes closed. They say that meditation or being in a meditative state is where ever you find peace & are present & mindful. I have guidance on meditating in the closed position which is a very effective way of connecting to yourself.
- Self – Love – taking the time to do something for YOU. Something that brings you joy & excitement to ignite that flame. YOU ARE WORTH IT ❤
Thanks so much for reading – take care & have a wonderful day !!
