Escape From the Ego Identity

Ever feel like your own mind is working against you? In this eye-opening episode of Mindful You, Alan explores the ego—not as some abstract concept, but as the invisible force shaping your reactions, beliefs, and even your sense of self. Blending insights from psychology and spirituality, Alan reveals how the ego builds walls out of our complaints, judgments, and stories—and why our brilliant minds often end up trapped inside them.

But here’s the good news: freedom is possible. Alan shares simple yet powerful tools—like the pause, conscious breathing, and the STOP method—to help you step out of autopilot and into the spaciousness of the present moment. You’ll learn how to:

✔ Recognize when the ego is running the show

✔ Create stillness amid life’s chaos

✔ Shift from "thinking" to simply being

If you’re tired of overanalyzing, reacting unconsciously, or feeling stuck in your own mental loops, this episode is your guide to a calmer, more compassionate way of living. Tune in and discover how one breath—one pause—can open the door to true presence.
