One of the first mistakes the ego makes is to confuse approval with love. From early childhood, we learn to feel good when we’re praised and uncomfortable when we’re not. Without noticing, we start organising our lives around being approved of rather than being true to ourselves.
That’s how we end up:
· People-pleasing instead of setting boundaries
· Staying small instead of taking risks
· Needing others to respond a certain way before we can feel okay
I call this the demon of approval.
And you can’t be free of it until you can clearly see it.
Tonight I’m running a free live session on this — how to see the pattern clearly, feel what comes up when you stop feeding it, and begin acting from something deeper than the need for approval
If this resonates, you’re very welcome to join - register here: ESCAPE THE DEMON
It starts at 7pm UK time and I will start with a short meditation to show how approval keeps the ‘me mind’ hooked. There will also be plenty of time for questions.
