A self-observation practice can show you how to heal yourself in your everyday life. This self-observation practice walks you through steps that you can take before, during, and after any routine activity or interaction with others. This contemplative practice increases awareness of the many different aims of the ego-self, allowing you to not be so attached to the self-image you've created, and over time it will allow you to integrate this ego-self to act more as a servant to your true self, resulting in a more purposeful and peaceful life.
