Superpowered Mind with Clare Dimond

Clare Dimond this is amazing. Thanks so much for putting it into words so clearly. Im thinking of my clients who have huge anxiety about childbirth. They arent pregnant even but so fearful. Are you saying that this fear and anxiety is something thats in their system from childhood wounds and theyve just hooked it onto birth? Like it could have been anyhing? Its just a portal to feel and sit with anxiety that needs to be felt? 

Some of my followers find these sorts of teachings leave them feeling a bit hopeless, with a sense of 'what's the point'. Some think all this 'looking for the self' business isn't important or helpful or just isn't for them. What might you say to people who can't see the point in this sort of teaching/understanding?

The truth will set you free. Wonderful words

For years, I've been looking at thought and limiting beliefs as a way to work through the feelings and behaviors that they create, to have a better experience in life. Now, working with you, I'm told to turn into the body and experience the physical sensations, to go beneath the labels and experience what's there. I can also be aware of the thinking, witnessing it but to stay with the body. 

I've also remained present with the behaviors and the conditioned thinking, witnessing what is actually happening rather than the projected reality onto another person making them the bad guy. I've found that incredibly enlightening to see that the experience isn't happening in the external world but is a projection of all the mental chatter and the attendant behavior. 

My question is do both approaches dissolve conditioning? I ask because for me, it seems that seeing the thinking and behaviors has far more impact, at least at this point. And yes, I am aware that going into the body or witnessing the thoughts and behaviors is done from a curious place rather than trying to get rid of it. 

In the last episode of WANT (day 19) you spoke of money not having any meaning, just a means to buy what you need. And it was a lightbulb of revelation to me.

I do not have an issue with money but with wanting a relationship (as you know ;-)) But the same is true for a relationship! If a relationship would not mean all that stuff I put into it (security, belonging, being lovable, being normal and so on)… what would it mean? it would mean a (male in my case) person I like spending most of my time with and love to be close physically - and it would develop into that organically over time. If there is no such person in my life - no big issue and no worries.

You cannot imagine how big that insight was for me - I love WANT. And I am so grateful for your work and your generosity in sharing it!

What does it mean 'the phobia is on its way out'? Listener question

Also, unfortunately, I'm someone for whom the subliminals don't seem to have any effect, so it seems like something has to be revealed in a different way.

Any thoughts on  this would be so appreciated.

I've been listening to your recent recordings on the "Want"course.  You speak about parenting that comes from the true nature of ourselves, to understand, or release our patterns, conditioning etc which you say are held in the subconscious. It seems fundamental then, that one comes into who they really are to be able to do this.  If one hasn't, then what?  I'm guessing the answer would be to start with seeing who we are before we can progress?

I am wondering if my current experience is ‘normal’

I have been diligently moving into and towards all discomfort as you encourage us to do.

I have found many things changing easily or just simply dropping away as well as some ‘sticky’ areas that I know I have more to learn from.

I am also noticing that as I have less self created drama and trauma in my life, I seem to be floating in a space of what feels like ‘no mans land’ just a rather vague sense of purposeless as so many of the things that I am used to expending my energy on no longer have such a grip on me.

I am hoping this space is going to open up and allow other possibilities, but wanted to check to see I am not off track here.

What if the behaviour of another that is impacting us is one we want to say 'this needs to stop' but we can't ask it because it's impossible for them to stop no matter how clear the ask (eg addiction)
