In the previous series, we described the types of “I” we know in coaching – and in real life. We have described individual types (the little dictator, the free spirit, the rebel, etc.) – and you may have recognized many of them.
Now – thank God – we are not just boringly one-dimensional, but multi-layered beings. We are human beings. We often have several of the types described, the ego parts within us. And these ego parts often enter into an intense, not always peaceful inner dialog.
In order to understand which parts of you are strong, which parts work on the outside and which parts work within you, we use the so-called egogram.
In the illustration you can see my egogram – schematically. Caring and critical ego parts are relevant, in contrast to adapted child parts, which are hardly (still) present. In contrast, the adult ego dominates and – I enjoy it – also the free child! Exciting.
Would you like to create and analyze your egogram with us? Would you like to get to know your ego parts? Create clarity about yourself, strengthen your inner dialog and – perhaps – make it more peaceful? Resolve inner and outer conflicts?
I would be happy to conduct an initial analysis with you. Get in touch if you would like to know more about this “Short-term coaching on ego parts”!
