Quality of Mind: Realising Exponential Potential.

This podcast series explores a game-changing understanding of the human mind that operates ''Before Psychology''- the Secret Source that exponentially increases the peace, performance, and potential for any individual or organisation.   This episode  dives deep into the concept of 'flow' with executive coach Tim Downes. Piers and Tim discuss the innate human potential to experience flow, often misunderstood as a state that requires specific activities or external validations. They examine how recognising and inquiring into the nature of our true awareness—not our conditioned, separate self—can lead to a more consistent, effortless state of ease and flow in daily life. Key concepts such as mindfulness, the illusion of self, and the universal accessibility of flow without external aids are explored. The conversation covers: Understanding Flow Barriers to Flow The Role of Self in Flow Are There Phases to Flow?

This podcast series explores a game-changing understanding of the human mind that operates ''before psychology'' - that exponentially increases the performance, resourcefulness and well-being for any individual or organisation. Many Journeys Pointing to One Realisation - Why Are There Are So Many Different Approaches to Transformation & Human Potential?   This episode is a conversation with show regular Helen Amery, a fellow coach of the understanding behind Quality of Mind. We describe  four doorways for transformation – psychological, emotional, physical, and spiritual (direct and indirect)  The discussion further explores the relationship between 'awakening' and 'enlightenment', viewing the former as grasping one's truest essence, and the latter denoting the continuous detangling of the human psychological condition after awakening. Whereas there are many approaches to transformation and human development there are also some we wouldn't recommend as much as others...   The discussion covers: The Limitations of Traditional Psychology and the Search for Something More The Awakening: Discovering the Non-Dual Landscape Why Are There Such a Diverse Range of Approaches in Personal and Professional Development The Common Goal of All Approaches: Uncovering the True Self Disentangling the Human Experience The Role of Awakening in the Enlightenment Process Exploring Different Doorways to Enlightenment The Intersection of Emotion and Physicality - The Body as a Signal for Attention The Importance of Embracing the Full Gamut of Human Experience The Cyclical Nature of the Journey of Awakening and Enlightenment What We Wouldn't Recommend.....

This podcast series explores a game-changing understanding of the human mind that operates ''before psychology'' - that exponentially increases the performance, resourcefulness and well-being for any individual or organisation. In this episode, Piers chats with corporate coach Dominic Scaffidi. Dominic and Piers did three episodes together back in 2020 exploring 'What is behind the magic of transformational coaching' and now they get back together to see what has been evolving in their own groundings and work. This episode explores what is truly transformative about coaching from this understanding of Before Psychology and Quality of Mind. It is a deep and sometimes technical conversation about the nature of consciousness, self-limitation, and the essence of being. They explore the idea of achieving versus allowing, noting that individuals can only experience the expansive nature of their being by dropping their resistance. They discuss how people often look for solutions outside themselves, forgetting that their real identity is infinite. The conversation also includes examples from business to illustrate their points effectively. This Episode Covers: The only challenge we ever have in business is our own mind The appearance of solidity and limitation. There is nothing solid really to be dealing with A simple business example of how we innocently look in the wrong place The confusion between how it appears success is created and what is actually going on  The utilitarian usefulness of definitions The desire for more to overcome the illusion of scarcity The nuance between allowing and revealing The limitlessness to what is available Why people really come to coaching, what we are all seeking Curious - want to know more?
