Lower Ego Power and Difficulty Interacting with People in Healthy Ways

Lower Ego Power and Difficulty Interacting with People in Healthy Ways

Aired Wednesday, 10 May 2023 at 8:00 AM PST / 11:00 AM EST

This week on It’s Your Ego—Stupid!, Dr. Nick will be looking intensely into the mirror of our ability to interact with people in healthy ways. Another way of putting it is, “How good are we at getting along with people?” Not just friends and family, but people in general. Our success in connecting with people in the broader sense—acquaintances and strangers—has important implications for our social, emotional, and spiritual growth. It’s this growth that allows us to experience peace and love for all people, regardless of their background. Something, many people have trouble doing, which is having a harmful impact on the quality of their lives. Failure to cultivate this growth often sets the stage for mental health, marital, sexual, D&A, legal, and work adjustment difficulties. Unfortunately, for those experiencing lower or higher ego power, flexibility, and vulnerability, there are lots of ‘getting along with people’ issues, rooted in these ego energies, where they have become entrapped in thought, emotional, and behavior patterns, in which they are spending more time surviving in society rather than truly living.

Unfortunately, for those with lower ego power, their pervasive sense of disempowerment undermines the amount of self-confidence they experience when encountering those they know less well. They prefer to remain in the background and remain passive rather than asserting themselves. Which makes it hard for people to get to know them. They are also easy targets for becoming involved in unhealthy relationships where people exert control over them via manipulation, exploitation, and even abuse. Their disempowerment often leads them to want others to believe in them as a means to believing in themselves and allowing others to exert more influence in their life than should occur. Unfortunately, this sets the stage for forming unhealthy relationships with people who take advantage of these needs—often people with higher ego power. Roles they may find their way into living, until they awaken to their ego energy, include the Conformist, the Dependent, and the Victim.

During the show I’ll be looking at symptoms, reflections of ego stupidity, and the impact on spiritual wellness which occurs when a person is being affected by lower ego power energy in their ability to interact with people in healthy ways. I’ll also be looking at specific ego insights needed to transform lower ego power into a healthier and more balanced place.

Please join me Wednesdays at 11:00 am (ET) when I will be sharing what you’ve taught me about what ego’s doing within your life, humanly and spiritually.
