Transcript
Welcome to your meditation on checking in with your ego. My name is Shayna, and I am honored to guide you through this practice.
What is the Ego?
The ego is often misunderstood—it is not necessarily a bad thing.
However, especially in relationships, the ego is the part of ourselves that:
Feels separate from others
Needs to be right
Seeks to prove a point
When we become too identified with the ego, it can make it difficult to find understanding and compassion, creating barriers to intimacy and connection.
The ego often clouds our perception, influencing our actions and reactions, particularly in relationships.
This can lead to friction, disagreements, and emotional distance—keeping us in a state of separation.
In fact, separateness is what the ego thrives on.
Exploring the Ego’s Voice
In this meditation, we will explore how to recognize the voice of the ego and separate it from our true, authentic self.
By doing so, we allow ourselves to connect more authentically and vulnerably in our relationships.
This meditation can be practiced alone or with a partner—if you feel inspired to practice together, I encourage it.
Let’s Begin
Take a few moments to find a comfortable position—whether seated, lying down, or even standing.
As you feel ready, gently close your eyes or soften your gaze.
Now, take a few deep breaths in through your nose…
And exhale softly through your mouth…
