Ever wondered what’s really going on beneath the surface of your mind?
Let’s take a journey into the world of Freudian psychology!
Picture your mind as a giant iceberg, with most of it submerged beneath the surface, just like your unconscious thoughts and feelings.
The Id is like the primal part of you, the one that just wants what it wants, whether it’s food when you’re hungry or a nap when you’re tired.
It’s the part that cries out like a baby for attention!
Then there’s the Superego, kind of like that teacher or parent we’ve all had, telling us what’s right and wrong.
Think of it like your moral compass, helping you to properly judge a situation.
And right there in your preconscious is the Ego, trying to balance it all, bringing up memories and keeping us aware of our present surroundings.
So, why does this matter?
Well, understanding these parts of your mind can help you make sense of why you do the things you do and why you react the way you do in certain situations.
Plus, it’s just downright fascinating to explore the depths of your own consciousness!
Watch this video below as I use the iceberg visual to walk you through the Id, Ego, and Superego.
Learning about your mind and how it works can be fun!
As Freud finds, the key to a healthy personality is a balance between these 3 components. Check out >> this resource << for more examples on the Id, Ego, and Superego.
