Ego Strengthening Hypnosis Script
Script Summary:
The Ego makes up the organized structure of the personality including executive functions such as
defence, perception, and intellectual-cognitive functions. Conscious awareness rests in the ego yet not all of the operations of the ego are conscious.
In The Ego and the Id (1923) Freud described the ego as "that part of the id which has been modified by the direct influence of the external world
- represents what may be called reason and common sense - in its relation to the id it (the ego) is like a man on horseback, who has to hold in check the superior strength of the horse (the id).
"
This analogy representing the ego as a rider with the id being the horse means the id provides the energy and information while the ego controls the direction. But sometimes especially in
unfavourable conditions the horse, the id, may exert its own decisions.
Freud's theory describes how the ego mediates between the id, super-ego, and larger external world. It is the job of the ego to find a balance between primitive drives and reality while satisfying all other aspects of the 'self.' The main concern of the ego is the individual's safety. The ego
defence mechanisms click into place if the id behaviour conflicts with society's norms and the individual's internalized version of these norms.
The word ego is from Latin. It's a version of the singular first person personal pronoun translated as "I myself." These days the concept of 'the ego' has many meanings. On the positive side 'ego' could refer to one's self-esteem. On the negative 'ego' can also connote an inflated sense of self-worth. According to Freud however, the ego contains the consciousness.
The poor overworked ego has also been described as 'a slave' to three harsh masters. The demands and desires of the id, super-ego, and external world all compete for the ego's attention and recognition. The ego must do its best to suit all three. It's no wonder why the ego may feel hemmed in by the danger of causing discontent among the masters. Some suggests that the ego seems more loyal to the id by ignoring the minutiae of reality to reduce conflicts. But the watching super-ego examines every one of the ego's moves and punishes it with feelings of guilt, anxiety, and inferiority when the ego 'doesn't behave.'
To overcome this the ego employs defence mechanisms such as denial, fantasy, projection, rationalisation, regression, repression, or sublimation.
