Practical Mystics

Am I too much? Am I not enough?


Listen Later

In this messy musing, I share a bit about the too much/not enough ego trap, and how I use Practical Mysticism to work through this in my own life.

I'm too much... to get the love I want, to have the career I want, etc, etc... I need to dial back who I am in order to be lovable. I can't shine and have love/money/health. I shouldn't take up this amount of space, I am not worthy as I am.

I'm not enough... as a partner, a parent, a friend. I should be more, give more, do more... I should be further ahead, I should be perfect and unflawed at all times, and I'm none of those things. Therefore, I'm unlovable, or bad, or wrong.

If you have a case of the too much or not enoughs, give this a listen. And, I'd love to here you share below what felt supportive to you… or, how you’re working through this in your own life.

Much love to you all!
