This text considers analytical procedures based on the Foucoltian codes over the critical ontology of ourselves. It aims at inquiring about the way in which we are being produced and become ourselves in the midst of this present that is permeating us. Thus, some categories of analysis are extended and being used in ontological research such as eventualization and problematization.  These categories allow the reflection about the antique self-practices and the possibility of turning to contemporary practices of the self as an adequate route to analyze the current production of subjectivities. Moreover, we propose an analytical matrix that goes back and expands the category of self-practice proposed by Foucault. The purpose is to work on the four dimensions that constitute it: ethical substance, connection to practice, type of practice and theology of the moral subject, along with the dimension added by Sáenz which is the agent of ethical substance. These dimensions are expanded from the genealogical, aesthetic, relational, pragmatic and ontological mathesis axes. In short, these categories and dimensions are presented in the middle of a reflection that allows an analysis to problematize the government forms of life in present times. Therefore, it allows to understand the relations of power operating in the globalized neoliberal capitalism.  Thus, we can look at it as the government of some people over others to raise control over individuals or an ethical and political freedom practice that is able to resist the power from self-government.
