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.

Seeing beyond your identity
Thought is the messenger
Innocent attempts to stabilise identity
There’s still a body
What is really going on here
Don’t pretend you’re fine!
Spiritual bypassing
Having an embodied experience
The universe exists within us
Using the mind to avoid the body
Escaping ourselves with spirituality
Escaping the present moment with words
Trauma is the origin of identity
Trauma is the maintainer of identity
Exploring trauma from a place of grounding
The relief from finding the 3 Principles
It’s still from the perspective of separation
Everyone else is a creation of me
The present moment is the teacher
The therapist identity – confusion
Seeing beyond the dream
The only purpose of life is to wake up
You can never get enough of what you don’t want
Life will keep pointing you inwardly
Non-duality as a shot of heroin
3p as a glass of whiskey
You can’t argue with the truth, but
Disembodied spiritual sharing
Spiritualising contractions away
What is really going on!
