Beyond Ego

Ego creates a tangled web
inner struggle mirrors
external conflict
Tension and distracted mind
Resentment, anger
Heart forgotten
Then remembers
Sadness descends
What has been lost?

Take a conscious moment
Breathe
Hand on heart and belly
Be here fully
Root down and rise up
Be the Tree of Life
Embrace it all.

Raise head and open heart
reach out arms 
and touch the sky
Breathe and move
Let the tangles unknot
and the tension release
Embrace your True self
Brush off the drama
and acting out ego
It has no place here

The web is untangled
Spirit welcomes heart
Open heart welcomes spirit
Live from the Center of your Being

I’d love to hear from you …

● About Me

My name is Val T Boyko and I live outside of Philadelphia, USA. I’m originally from Scotland and hold dual citizenship. You can take the girl out of Scotland but you can’t take Scotland out of the girl!

This blog came to life one morning in 2013.  I woke up with these words in my mind:  “Life is a series of highs and lows. Be grateful for the highs. Be graceful in the lows. And find contentment in your Middle Ground.”

Find Your Middle Ground blog started to explore, reflect, ask deep questions, share insights about awakening, and connect with wonderful people like yourself. Thank you for being here and being such an inspiration.
