I think that "giving up some of the ego" can be a good exercise, when the "ego" includes a large amount of self pride, say. OTOH, the thing (or mix of things) that we refer to as ego is, IMHO, part of living in the 3D so attempting to eliminate it would be futile or might even be dangerous, if it lets in an outsider who wants to take charge disguised as something good.
Two things help me to release fear. One was Aikido training, the other is meditation. Neither involves surrendering control of my "self."
