What does it mean to come home to self and what role does the ego play in how we identify with who we are? Does the ego try to take over and in doing so can restrict you from exploring and connecting more with the deeper aspects of who you are and your connection to others and the world. Feeling whole and connected to yourself fully can feel challenging in our modern day world full of distractions, roles and responsibilities, so is it even possible? And if it is, what do you need to consider and be aware of?
Sally talks about the challenging task of integrating your ego and soul to be your ‘whole’ self. You can’t be fully ‘home’ if you are rejecting parts of what makes up your ‘home’ or you essentially.
Another block to coming home to self could be fear. Sibby talks about our constant chatter - our monkey mind and how it can prevent you from exploring and accepting yourself. Maybe you get caught up in the stories you tell yourself and this becomes your identity, so it begs the question - do we label ourselves and limit ourselves based on the stories we tell?
So, what can you do to experience more connection, inner peace, understanding and radical acceptance? Here’s a few suggestions:
1. Self-discovery work, helping you to work out - what is you and what is not, what resonates and what doesn’t. Connecting in with your eternal part of who you are - your soul, divine essence or divine spark - to push past the ego’s reduced definition of who you are.
2. Self-acceptance is a big part of coming home to self. Don’t reject aspects of yourself, be prepared to look at everything with love and compassion, wholeness comes from first acknowledging then accepting all of you.
3. Mindfulness and meditation help for you to step into the ‘being’ state, sometimes you just need to let yourself just be.
