An insightful conversation with Angela about the human experience, what conscious relating is and how healing occurs in the present moment, this is a super insightful conversation shining a light where many practitioners are confused on conditioning, trauma, spirituality and somatic healing, Angela has some very clear explanations, I suggest a pen and paper to write a few notes.

Below are the nuggets I heard while listening:

A beautiful conversation about trauma and how we block ourselves from love, connection and everything we want with unconscious beliefs, we unpick what gets in the way of seeing our own beauty and allowing ourselves to be loved, from the mind to the body, a fully inclusive conversation, through the lens of 3p, non duality, somatic healing and meditation. Below are some of the insights I got when listening back:

This conversation with Rupert was recorded almost a couple of years ago, when I had just started really going to non dual retreats and wanting to be directly involved experientially, the reason I sat on it so long is on the audio before it starts, it turned out to be a great conversation covering so many subjects around the spectrum of experience, from suffering through to awakening and what happens on that journey for people including healing from trauma, what actually is trauma and how we might point people who are suffering to their true nature. Below are some of my insights from listening back:

This great conversation with Rudi & Jules goes from relationship triggers, to prison violence, from spiritual bypassing to embodying the essence of who you are it was great to dig into all these subjects with a sincere depth and quality of really seeing experience for what it is without being wedded to a concept or idea.

An in depth look with June Jackson at trauma, beliefs contained in the body’s reactions to stimulus and the difference in spiritual pursuits and somatic investigations to find the roots of trauma beyond what the mind can see.

The post Beyond Spiritual Bypassing appeared first on Misunderstandings of the mind.

Ok, everything is a concept but in this wonderful conversation with Clare Dimond we explore what is actually happening, in the body, right now, in our experience, we discussed spiritualising away your every day moment to moment experience, with innocent attempts to stabilise an identity where it is never possible, trauma being the origin and maintainer of the identity that I think I am, even when I sharing spiritual shit that sounds great. This conversation really shines a light on what is happening, how and where to look, and most importantly, it’s all ok.

The post Beyond the Concepts appeared first on Misunderstandings of the mind.

In this conversation with Sunitha Sandeep we discuss how the understandings of Buddhism, 3p and non-duality do not exempt you from trauma, that the body-mind is just 1 system that functions perfectly. How the experience of trauma in adulthood is only ever pointing you home, like all suffering. Spiritual bypassing, and more.

The post The Beauty of Trauma appeared first on Misunderstandings of the mind.

A beautiful conversation with Marnix Pauwels on the experience of loss, and being present to witness the sadness, the joy, the confusion the pure love that is inside all of us. We explored many things including the impact of losing someone as a child and how that shows up in life, the loss of love, to the creation of love and beautiful experiences of opening our hearts.

Pete felt tired and worthless during his struggles with alcohol, trying his best to stay sober just was not working. Holding down a job but struggling inside with the battle not to drink every day. He came across the understanding of true nature and the inside out nature of life that transformed everything while trying to take his own life by jumping from a bridge. Saved by a passing soul in the form of a police officer Pete serendipitously found his way to freedom via the work of Sydney Banks.

Listen in to hear his story of hope, from struggles, sharing what happened, what he saw and how it changed his life to his current beautiful experience of being alive. Pete is a true inspiration to anyone struggling with drugs or alcohol, and a testament to how a simple insight can change everything.
