When I first became serious about my spiritual awakening (and journey), “Ego-Self vs Higher-Self” was one of the 1st things I learned about. The ego is mentioned in songs, shows, and movies… but do we REALLY innerstand what the ego is? 

The ego-self is your conscious mind (basically in the forefront). It controls the way you compare yourself to others, your attachment to material things (such as money and name brand things), and feelings of entitlement. If you think of a narcissist and the characteristics they possess, you can see how they’re controlled by their ego.

Your higher-self, on the other hand, is your subconscious mind and is the complete opposite of the ego. Your higher-self is your center and is directly connected to source (cosmic consciousness). It controls your confidence (not to be confused with “cockiness”) and always encourages you to step outside of your comfort zone. 

Now, there is always this big debate on whether we need to balance the ego-self or get rid of it completely in order to raise our vibration. A good amount of people will say that you need to do some self-healing and completely get rid of the ego-self. However, a good amount of people would also say that you cannot get rid of the ego-self and instead should balance it. I personally agree with the latter. Your ego-self is a part of you and honestly has good intentions. It’s protective of you but often goes about protecting you the wrong way. I believe that everything in nature operates best when balanced… and being that we come from nature, the same law pertains. Operating entirely from your ego-self will block you from stepping outside of your comfort zone (literally blocking your blessings).

🧘🏾‍♀️Ego Healing🧘🏾‍♂️

This is a time where generations of people have been a part of a deeper cycle of energetic patterns that have shaped the way we operate in the world, & for some these cycles have created barriers & stagnancy. There is a sacred place within your consciousness that connects us all, & it shows us the path to the truest versions of ourselves, not the self that we have been conditioned to believe was who we were & how we feel. Every event that is happening right now is a part of a divine plan to create order within ourselves, so we can project that out to create that same trigger into order for others. It could be that some are focusing their energy in all the wrong places, & material/emotional balance is coming up for those who are out of touch with the bigger picture. There needs to be more energy into self care & loving oneself, since in this case abundance lies within us. Laying the foundation & seeding the light for you to be wiser is the focus when attempting shadow work. Create your sacred space with, to get those desired results without. It is needed to gain clarity in what needs to be organized in your life & nurture yourself in a way that creates an unshakable inner balance. Mothering of the self is either heavily needed, or has been rejected or overlooked as of late, but progress can happen as long as you work to reach that understanding & deepen your protection from lower frequencies. There is an emphasis on recovery, rest, reciprocation, & healing, especially for the highly sensitive & empathic. Sometimes it can be too much to handle all the energy shifts that are happening on a daily basis, so there needs to be focus on getting grounded, even if you're already grounded, it may be in your best interest to be more protective of your own energetic field.

I am so tired.

I sat down in front of my laptop in my room, not wanting to work on it, but i just sat there because I was sitting on my bed.

And... The next thing I know, when I looked at the screen, was a voice in my head saying, "perhaps we should look and apply for jobs just in case." I start a new one in Feb.

And without thinking, I lean forward closer to the keyboard as if I am about to follow the command, and I realised, that its not me, the 3rd seat (the combination of Asra & Ms. Fractured).

It was Asra...

the control, the poise, the one who always thinks of 10 steps ahead in all areas making sure that she has complete visibility of all exits at all time, who said it.

I paused and jolted back and put my face in my hands and started to cry. "Just rest Asra. Please just rest. I am tired. We can't keep on doing this. Please, I beg of you... Just... Rest. Let me rest...".

Sobbing, I feel that ego soften and lie down to sleep.
