We have two aspects of self, the higher self and the lower self. Higher self is our consciousness whereas the lower self is our beliefs that have been formed due to childhood hurts and therefore an emotional charge is trapped there along with these beliefs. Now this emotional charge due to law of attraction brings more such hurts into our lives. In this situation, whenever we are able to witness that there is a part in us that has got hurt, the one that witnesses is our higher self. That part in you that is experiencing what is going on within you, the emotional turmoil, the thoughts that itself is your higher self..your consciousness. So by witnessing more and more you can live from your higher self.
