The Ego Psychology Experiment How to Live a Happier Stress Free Life!
Ego Psychology experiment what is that? Can you imagine your life without your ego?The miracle I discovered is my life is so much easier and free when I am not operating from my ego. I'm not saying you don't need your ego and I'm not saying that it doesn't serve a purpose.
I'm talking about the part of your ego that stops you from being happy. The part that creeps up when you least want it to.
The ego that wants to share about how your too good for something or you don't need to ask for help it won't look good. Remember that ego? That is the one I'm talking about. This is the ego psychology experiment where we bust that ego and get free from the things in life that make us miserable.
Let's see if your life can be better without that part of your ego ruining all the great opportunities that come your way because your ego is telling you your too far advanced to learn this you should know it by now. Because it doesn't want anyone to know that you need help or more education it will stop you from taking part in things that would get you where you want to be in your career or life. The ego stops you from growing and learning and actually getting want you want in this life to be free have enough money and not have to stress about how your going to pay the bills. Think about that for a minute. How true is that?
Here is something that you may not want to hear but I'm going to say it anyway. Every problem we have comes from the ego…every one. Do you realize this? It is quite astounding when you truly get the magnitude of that concept.
“The egoic mind is completely conditioned by the past. One of the most basic mind structures through which the ego comes into existence is identification.” Eckhart Tolle.
This blog is about my experiment with the ego psychology and finding out if it is even possible to live without it? What’s fascinating is by understanding the ego that is one way you can be free of its grip.
In looking at this let’s start with taking a minute to stop and think about what the problems are that you think you have.
It can be anything from I don’t have enough money, I don’t have enough love, I’m not thin enough, good looking enough, smart enough. My business doesn't have enough clientsI am over worked, stressed out.
Has it ever occurred to you why you think you are having these problems? I will help you out here it's because that is the problem, the thought. Think about that how we create every situation we have good or bad.
Have you ever wondered why you are over worked and stressed out? It’s probably because you are putting too much pressure on your self.
There are people in your life you want to impress or live up to their expectations of you. Somehow some way your ego is trying to get approval, otherwise you would not have those problems at all. It is really fascinating when you really look at the ego psychology, that way.
Let’s take a step back and really understand this in order to benefit from it. If you are not operating from your ego then you are beyond ego and you wouldn’t feel the need to keep up or impress anyone.
You wouldn’t be looking for approval and acceptance from anyone either. You could care less about how you look or your age and status. None of that would matter; therefore you would have no problems.
Let’s face it if we weren’t attached to our age then it wouldn’t matter when we saw someone younger and healthier. If we weren’t attached to our income then it wouldn’t matter if someone makes more money or lives in a nicer house, because if we are not attached to our age, looks, where we live or how well we do something or don’t do something, it would be difficult to have any problems. I dare you to try it. First you have to live with no ego and then see if you have any problems.
I’m not saying that you can’t have some type of situation and your life is not working because of something like the economy is bad or the bread winner in the family was in a tragic accident and can't provide. You might be thinking how does ego have anything to do with that?
It doesn't! But no matter what life gives you, you always have the choice about how you are going to look at it and deal with it. You can make it worse by fighting it or you can look for the lesson and learn and grow from it while you are in the solution moving forward. We are responsible for how we are going to act in any situation. True success is not measured by how well you do in the good times. It's measured by how you bounce back in the bad times.
When I first realized this it was quite the revelation,let go of my ego and I am free, That is ego psychology.
Although that is not as easy as I thought it would be. My inspiration for the ego psychology experiment came from Eckhart Tolle. He is a wonderful spiritual teacher who is really operating with no ego. In my life I don’t think I have had the pleasure of meeting anyone quite like him.
I kept thinking to myself how does he do that? His calm and centered manner inspired me to start an experiment where I would go through my day without my ego and see if it can be done. And if so what would be the benefits?
How did I start down this amazing path that led to freedom? Everyday I have a ritual that I do, I read inspirational and spiritual books followed by mediation and visualization. Of course I thought that would be the best time to start my new ego psychology challenge.
The next day before I started my morning mediation I added, “Universe I am now giving you my ego. I have no need for it so I gladly release it to you. I then visually watched it float up and out of body until it disappeared.
You may be wondering What an ego looks like. I pictured it to be like a small white cloud that simply and easily floats out of my head. When I first started to do this, it was wonderful! I realized how almost everything I do in life is somehow attached to the ego psychology. You may not realize this until you too take on this challenge yourself.
I will say that since I started this ego psychology experiment there are times that I slip back into the same old feelings of identifying my thoughts with who I am.
Situations will occur and I will feel rejected or upset about a situation and then I stop myself and say, “Hey, who gave me back my ego? I didn’t ask for it back that I can remember.”
Eckhart Tolle makes it look so easy! I am not even sure he is really human. I think he was dropped from another planet actually but that is another story. :)
I decided I would have to let it go all over again, the first ego psychology experiment obviously didn’t take, which is normal when you are trying something new. It's okay if you have to do this everyday or several times during the day. Don't expect yourself to automatically operate from no ego after having lived with it all your life.
Right after that came my big “ah ha moment” When I noticed what was happening and I released my ego again and the feelings that had previously came up for me about feeling rejected or upset in someway didn’t exist anymore. Now that is huge!
My big revelation at that moment was, what’s the big deal? I didn’t take my situation personally, because my ego was gone. It was something that just happened, period end of story end of drama.
If you really do want to end the drama in your life that is the way to do it. Some people love drama and create it all the time. They won't admit that but we all know who they are.
You have to be either sick of that life and all the stress and pain it brings or live with it. This experiment is for people who are looking for a happier easier way to live.
It's also for people that are overly sensitive or if your in a situation that brings out your insecurities this technique will do the trick. Works ever time. It helps you to not take everything so personal. When we do that it is our ego we are operating from.
After completing the ego psychology experiment I noticed that when I no longer need to be right, no longer need to win and no longer need approval, those are signs that my ego has left the building. When I feel otherwise I know its time to stop and release my ego to the universe. I have learned that I am not my ego and only if I mistake it for who I am, can noticing it in myself become threatening to my sense of self.
I want to offer all of you the same sense of peace and relief in your life. I am asking you to also take the ego psychology challenge and see for yourself for a couple of days how miraculous it can be.
You will soon realize that your life is so much easier, simpler and yes of course that leads to happier. Don’t forget to let us all know about your experience whether its good, bad or just what it is, sharing the benefits of this type of shift is important in creating a happy whole planet for us all to live on.
I wish for all of you all the happiness and peace the Universe has to offer!
