Dispositional Hypo-egoicism
Oxford Handbooks Online October 5, 2016 Mark R. Leary, Kirk Warren Brown, Kate J. Diebels 3 citations
People with a hypo-egoic mindset are more focused on the present moment, process experiences with minimal internal commentary, and have a less individuated identity. They balance their own interests with others' needs, care less about how others evaluate them, and show greater emotional equanimity. Interpersonally, they tend to be agreeable, attentive, and caring. These characteristics likely make them more prone to experiences such as flow, awe, compassion, and mystical states.
