I keep reading posts about the ego as if it is our enemy. Ego is not the enemy. We live in a culture where we fear the ego, where the ego is made out to be the bad guy. This only creates more separation, a greater divide in growing and evolving into the great wholeness that you are. Understand your ego. Partner with your ego. When you have the ego rising up in the negative way we are accustomed to, see why the ego is fighting? What is your ego fighting in fear of? What is your ego afraid of? Why does the ego think you need to be protected? When we partner with our ego instead of making our ego and the ego response out to be the bad guy/girl...then we can move forward together. For example if my ego is rising up, I question why? What is my ego/me afraid of? I talk to my ego. Ask the ego part to trust, to come play in this new area we are moving into. I reach out my hand to my ego and walk forward with her. Over time the ego response will begin to change, no more fighting and resistance...but partnership and support. Then you and your ego will merge as one. No longer me vs ego, no longer me and ego as 2 separate aspects of me...but coming into union and wholeness within me as one in unity!
