In Yorùbá spirituality, self-disruptive behavior is seen as a reflection of imbalance in character. Traits like impatience (àìsùúrù), arrogance (ìgbéraga), unresolved anger (ibínú), and indecision (àìpinnu) block alignment with one’s Orí (divine destiny). Through proverbs, reflection, and simple rituals, Yorùbá wisdom offers a path back to balance, reminding us that healing begins with character—ìwà pẹ̀lẹ́.

The Yorùbá conscious self is rooted in orí, ọ̀kàn, and Ìwà Pẹ̀lẹ́—guiding us toward inner wisdom, divine alignment, and spiritual growth.
