especially excited because I was able to have a peek at my

Unknown: 00:00:25

Unknown: 00:00:30

Unknown: 00:00:36

hello to India. I know you guys are very good at learning

Unknown: 00:00:41

Unknown: 00:00:47

Unknown: 00:00:54

and France and the UK, and Russia, as well. So this is

Unknown: 00:01:02

incredible. You guys are so wonderful. And yeah, please

Unknown: 00:01:06

never hold back

Unknown: 00:01:09

to share my little podcast here, it would mean the world to me,

Unknown: 00:01:14

if you just suggested to friends and family or acquaintances, if

Unknown: 00:01:19

you share it.

Unknown: 00:01:21

But yeah, most of all, you subscribe, and you download, and

Unknown: 00:01:27

it gives me feedback about how I'm doing. So thank you so much

Unknown: 00:01:33

for doing this for me. And yeah, let's dive into today's episode

Unknown: 00:01:41

called the ego, or the monkey mind, who is the monkey mind

Unknown: 00:01:47

what is the monkey mind. And whereas the monkey mind,

Unknown: 00:01:53

I will post a couple of videos to illustrate. But for you, I

Unknown: 00:01:57

want to

Unknown: 00:01:59

Yeah, put it into words, your ego is part of your mind that

Unknown: 00:02:06

identifies and attaches to things that is very opinionated

Unknown: 00:02:13

and judgmental. We need our ego to a certain degree, to feel a

Unknown: 00:02:22

sense of self.

Unknown: 00:02:24

Although I think

Unknown: 00:02:27

most of us are very ego driven. And we could listen a little

Unknown: 00:02:31

more to our hearts and our physical body. And put the

Unknown: 00:02:37

monkey mind the ego a little more. Yeah, into a corner into a

Unknown: 00:02:42

little positive time out.

Unknown: 00:02:45

You can observe your ego especially well, when something

Unknown: 00:02:52

out of the norm, or super annoying is happening to you.

Unknown: 00:02:58

It is, for example,

Unknown: 00:03:01

I can only come back to my phone issues here. How I tried to

Unknown: 00:03:07

problem solve and the assumptions I make all my phone

Unknown: 00:03:11

is broken. Because

Unknown: 00:03:14

I didn't do updates and I'm just very neglectful with my devices,

Unknown: 00:03:21

I always expect them to function, yet I don't take

Unknown: 00:03:25

perfect care of them. Hence, I'm

Unknown: 00:03:30

neglectful person. So something happens that is super annoying.

Unknown: 00:03:36

And then you make an assumption about yourself, and this is who

Unknown: 00:03:39

you are.

Unknown: 00:03:41

and The bad thing about us is that it holds you in that

Unknown: 00:03:46

assumption and it makes you be that person that you assume you

Unknown: 00:03:52

are and that's never a good thing because every morning we

Unknown: 00:03:56

wake up we can be a new person. Every moment in this life we can

Unknown: 00:04:01

decide to make different decisions than we made in the

Unknown: 00:04:06

past. And if we are stuck in a certain way that we think we

Unknown: 00:04:11

are, it is not good.

Unknown: 00:04:15

Now look at other people, when people do something that is out

Unknown: 00:04:20

of your norm that is different than your monkey mind usually

Unknown: 00:04:25

jumps into an s very harsh and judgmental and opinionated.

Unknown: 00:04:33

Look at comedians look at YouTube videos where you know,

Unknown: 00:04:38

other people would laugh and you don't really think it's funny.

Unknown: 00:04:44

And there as well you become judgmental. You say, Well, why

Unknown: 00:04:50

is that funny? Why is that person so? Yeah. Silly in this

Unknown: 00:04:56

moment and thinks that this is funny. So this

Unknown: 00:05:00

The SEO, monkey mind when we feel jealous,

Unknown: 00:05:05

the monkey mind is highly active and judges and compares and

Unknown: 00:05:12

makes you feel small and then you want to make the other

Unknown: 00:05:16

person feel

Unknown: 00:05:18

inferior are shitty, and you want to kind of change

Unknown: 00:05:24

the thoughts around that person in order to make you feel

Unknown: 00:05:28

better. So this is also the ego and the monkey mind.

Unknown: 00:05:34

And it's very interesting to observe because the most secure

Unknown: 00:05:40

people have the least amount of monkey mind activity, or they

Unknown: 00:05:48

know how to not take it too serious. So they hear the

Unknown: 00:05:54

thoughts in their brains, that a one brain they don't have two

Unknown: 00:06:00

brains. And then they can maybe smile about it, laugh about it,

Unknown: 00:06:04

but put it in the corner. They don't identify with the monkey

Unknown: 00:06:09

mind. They see it as a maybe even separate entity that does

Unknown: 00:06:15

its thing. But they don't let it distract from what is really in

Unknown: 00:06:22

front of you. What is reality

Unknown: 00:06:26

skews me. So next time you see yourself being jealous, it's

Unknown: 00:06:32

very easy to do when you go on Facebook or Instagram or Tick

Unknown: 00:06:35

Tock or whatever. Observe your judgment, your opinions,

Unknown: 00:06:43

your negativity, maybe even. And no, this is not you versus your

Unknown: 00:06:49

little bit of insight and security. And if you could maybe

Unknown: 00:06:54

guide your mind to feel and think inspired

Unknown: 00:07:01

by what is making you jealous by being happy for the other person

Unknown: 00:07:06

even by knowing that the other person achieved a goal or as

Unknown: 00:07:12

successful, because they put every little cell of their body

Unknown: 00:07:17

and mind into that project. And are so dedicated and are so

Unknown: 00:07:23

focused. And this is why they are succeeding. And not because

Unknown: 00:07:27

you're dumb or young, or whatever excuse you want to

Unknown: 00:07:31

have. And they're not successful because they were born into a

Unknown: 00:07:36

successful family or they have your money or whatever. They

Unknown: 00:07:41

have a healthy mindset and are okay to reach the goals that

Unknown: 00:07:47

they set themselves. Because there's tons of people out there

Unknown: 00:07:50

who are born into rich families.

Unknown: 00:07:54

And they absolutely don't make anything out of what is given to

Unknown: 00:07:58

them. And that's totally legit. They go their own path. So your

Unknown: 00:08:04

ego is also the part of your brain of your mind. That comes

Unknown: 00:08:09

up with excuses. Oh no, like I can't do this because I was

Unknown: 00:08:14

always bad and math or Oh no, I can't learn that

Unknown: 00:08:20

language because back in school, I had bad grades. So your ego

Unknown: 00:08:26

can also really keep you stuck with what I said at the

Unknown: 00:08:32

beginning what you think you are,

Unknown: 00:08:35

and it can

Unknown: 00:08:38

really manipulate you out of beautiful things like love

Unknown: 00:08:43

relationships. Yeah, when you've been hurt when you had to go

Unknown: 00:08:47

through a heartbreak and now you meet that new person and you get

Unknown: 00:08:52

to know them and they are just being themselves and your mind

Unknown: 00:08:58

your ego keeps coming up with all one gonna get hurt again, I

Unknown: 00:09:03

will have to have my guard up and I cannot be intimate or

Unknown: 00:09:09

close with that person. Because I might get hurt in the future

Unknown: 00:09:14

again. So your ego is a very good thing it wants to it wants

Unknown: 00:09:20

to protect you at all times. And this is also why it makes it a

Unknown: 00:09:26

bad thing. Because

Unknown: 00:09:30

life is meant to be messy. You will always get hurt and

Unknown: 00:09:34

disappointed and you just got to learn to make healthy

Unknown: 00:09:38

assumptions and conclusions about sorry about yourself and

Unknown: 00:09:43

life in order to be happy and your ego when it is left

Unknown: 00:09:49

unchecked will prevent you from enjoying life to the fullest and

Unknown: 00:09:56

having deep relationships and

Unknown: 00:10:00

Yeah, loving life and people and all the adventures that you can

Unknown: 00:10:05

have. So for the next couple of days, I want you to notice your

Unknown: 00:10:11

monkey mind and befriend your monkey mind, that's a good part

Unknown: 00:10:14

of your brain. But sometimes it's just a little too loud,

Unknown: 00:10:18

it's too active. And it's trying to, yeah, push you into a

Unknown: 00:10:25

direction that is not oriented towards growth and health. It

Unknown: 00:10:31

keeps you in unhealthy small spaces, sometimes even

Unknown: 00:10:37

disconnected from people and isolating. So have a look at

Unknown: 00:10:43

your monkey mind and have a look at my little videos on

Unknown: 00:10:47

Instagram, and YouTube. Maybe not yet, but Facebook for sure.

Unknown: 00:10:55

And then you will have a different angle on this topic.

Unknown: 00:11:03

Thank you so much for being here. Thank you so much for

Unknown: 00:11:06

listening. I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day. And

Unknown: 00:11:10

yeah, please share my little podcast here with people that

Unknown: 00:11:16

you care about. And I will be out there for you again

Unknown: 00:11:21

tomorrow. Bye bye. Until next time, Aurora with the Borealis
