In the last few months I have been putting more of myself out there and of course there will be more eyes on what I’m doing or saying and for sure the judgements and criticism would be obvious, but there is also this huge window of opportunity. I’m stepping out more, so that I can unravel my own ego mind and find more love for myself from the depth of my soul.
I really don’t need to focus on those who don’t see me, validate me or show me love. The best part of putting yourself out there, is the opportunity to show yourself that you matter and how you feel matters more, then what someone’s opinion of you is.
Our egos run high and place us in fear, not to prevent life from occurring but to protect us from our pain, but there is no life in that. As a spiritual teacher I run into people’s ego and fears all the time and sometimes it can be extremely exhausting. I do my best to try and show them their potential, but when the ego kicks in , they run away and go back to the lies that they have created. We love our comfort zones and self-sabotage!
The biggest challenge of the ego is commitment. Do you commit to life, to your happiness, to your ability to love yourself or are you comparing yourself and blaming your bad luck or circumstances on others?
The truth, I have been a punching bag by others’ egos for far to long. The biggest lesson I have learned while being a spiritual teacher is to honour my being above all , speak my truth and continue on my path. Whether you follow me or not is not my responsibility. Never violate your boundaries to accommodate anyone. Never hold back from allowing truth to be spoken, never limit anyone else’s potential and above all be real. This isn’t above image or being nice all the time but being real to yourself.
Nobody can take anything from you when you are living in your truth and eventually the ego will come to terms with your ability to love yourself . The heart never lies, it speaks from the soul.
yes – lovely post Christina, its important to connect with one’s inner truth in this world and on a daily basis, then speak to it with calmness and clarity. Too often ego will try and distract one from living a life that is centered within one’s spirit, I find morning mediation and being mindful certainly helps a lot. Every day in every way is a good day to be all that one can be in this life. Look for the love, kindness and compassion within – it is always there.
Being honest is not easy. It is also not something that we have been encouraged to do, as we have been conditioned to care more about fitting in and not hurting other people’s feelings. Our Ego wants to protect our identity and stay in the comfort zone. Honesty is often met with resistance and backlash …

I have been on my spiritual journey now for 6 years. It has been the most interesting ride of my life. I went from being completely asleep in this world to awakening aspects of my being that I never knew were part of me. The journey itself has been both beautiful , inspiring and also the hardest. …
I won’t feel guilty anymore… In my workshop on Sunday I was talking to the group of beautiful souls about guilt and how guilt is a cry for people’s love. We feel terrible when we want to do what we desire out of fear that people will be upset or not approve. The reality is …
