Hey, all right, everyone. Welcome to the newest episode of Heel Thyself. This is episode number 22.

We're doing it. We're doing it with love. We're educating everyone. I know you all love it. I love you for listening.

I'm really grateful Fridays are my favorite day. We're just gonna get right to it.

We got a lot to go over. Now before I get to the Knowledge Bomb I just want to set out a point that I've been thinking of lately and I think it needs to be said is that ego, ego ego, ego ego, what is the ego, it's our defense mechanism that protects us from so much in

this world and we need it we need it we villainize of it we need it okay because

it protects us it gives us that memory. It says, oh no, this is a dangerous situation.

This is not something that, this is where I've been hurt before. Let me hop out. But we also have control of our ego. And I want to, I want everyone who's listening to understand that we are not,

we are not our thoughts.

So pay close attention because that ruminating monkey mind that you've heard all of your life that

saying oh I need to go pay my bills but first I need to go food shopping but

that's only after I call my friend on my phone and then I need to call my mom on the phone.

That thing, that person talking is not you.

You have to understand that, that's not you.

You are the observer of these thoughts.

You are the observer of these thoughts. You are the observer of these thoughts.

So with that said, if you're not identifying,

and the biggest trap we take, the biggest trap in life,

is that we always identify with those thought processes and believe that they are us but they are not us.

That's the most empowering thing I can tell you today because if we are not our thoughts then what are we?

What are we? What are the observer of our thoughts? That awareness awareness you know when you meditate you know when

you do yoga you know in those instances where it feels like time doesn't exist well

that's when you're to your closest essential self, who you truly are.
