What You've Been Looking For

Personal development - what if there is no 'self' to 'improve'?


Listen Later

Welcome to episode 2 of 'What You've Been Looking For.'

We talk about the self, what it is, how it's never been there, and how, when you see that, you discover the ultimate freedom.

We include pointers so you can notice times for yourself when you've had an experience of 'no-self' and how that feels.

We've been misdirected all these years by the messaging that tells us we have to believe in ourselves, develop ourselves and that there are 3, 5 or 7 steps to do that successfully.

We challenge these accepted norms and how they're actually a source of suffering as we continue to feel like we're never quite there, never quite good enough.

Settle down, relax and join us for a chat.

We'd love to hear from you with your questions and thoughts so just get in touch here.
