Hi Fly Birth! Happy New Year!
Many apologies for this tardy response. I have been out of the office for the last week and a half and the person who was supposed to monitor this forum forgot!
You will find that the further you progress through your course, the less of a hold the ego or your currently perceived identity will have on you. As you continue to expand your awareness it will become clearer when the ego is running the show and any resulting contraction will be noticed more quickly. When this occurs, you will find it easier and easier to recognize what is and is not serving you and can then choose what to do about it.
You will find yourself living more and more consistently in the state of freedom you seek.
Much love to you!
Wendy
