Interesting, I think I agree with you Eliott 🙂

Ego can hinder growth by limiting perspective. Embrace humility along with healthy self-confidence for a better grasp of true individuality.

Hello Meg, 🙂 I think you may have missed the focus on the post. It’s about ego-death, not healthy boundaries, which of course we all could use. It’s about understanding the mask you wear that you present to the rest of the world. Ego-death is about peeling that away and finding the sacred self. In ego-death, it is also rebirth. You also mentioned release, well ego-death has a lot to do with release, but that’s because we’re letting go of the mask. That doesn’t mean release from trauma or pain doesn’t happen with an ego death though. 🙂 You actually touched on a lot of what happens with an ego-death, give it a re-read and focus on discovering the sacred self. 🙂 Blessings.

🙂 Hello Cassandra, I suggest reading my reply to Mads down below. But in more direct answer about work/home/self and quality of life, a proper ego-death and “rebirth’ should improve the quality of life. This is because after ego-death we see clearer, we realize what a “drop in the bucket” everything is, and begin to see them as bound by their thinking and need for shadow work. One witch, many hats – as I told Mads. While the outward remains “the same”, the inward has changed, and with that kind of energy it has an effect on people, sometimes calming them or helping them to reason for instance. You’ll still wear your hats, but it is you that has changed and to a purer, higher form of sacred self. 🙂 Keep in mind, we sometimes need to go through this ego-death process again, sometimes that’s slow. Sometimes it can be quite fast too. 🙂 Perfectly natural. Use the post I’ve written to work up your own approach to this, but don’t lose sight of the goal of being your best you, hats and all. 🙂 Blessings!

Hello there Mads, 🙂 And ego-death teaches us how to live without the mask, but to answer the concerns about being out there in the working world and peopling, I totally understand. After an ego-death, remember it’s like being born too, liberation. That being said, we still have personas, we still have to wear many hats. The difference is, after ego death, we can do that and still be at peace internally, we are changed. We can still face people, and wear what hat we need too, but without having to be super-conscious about it we still realize we’re connected to all things, even that person you’re assisting at work. We still have peace, even when others around us are not as peaceful as we’d like. We know sublimely that the mask is simply for them, and our own good energy both sustains us and blesses them. It’s like a witch who wears many hats, each hat a different purpose, but the witch is not the hat, indeed it is the witch wearing the hats who has changed. 🙂 Blessings!
