Misunderstanding of Health | Rachel Singleton & Jason Shiers

An insightful conversation with Rachel Singleton about the natural system within the body, how our health is always pointing us home back to the natural equilibrium of the system. You don’t wan’t to miss this one, if you have ever suffered with ill physical health, there is so much wisdom here. Letting something bigger guide us Realising that we’re not listening Our true health guides us from within It is knowing what to do when Your body tells you when it needs it It’s about looking in a different direction We all have inner guidance within We make our pathology worse We create suffering ourselves What happens in the moments of respite? Looking in the direction of health, not illness What can we see that works for us We don’t need to listen to what is wrong It’s a self correcting system All systems in the body work this way Symptoms are love letters from the body It’s about letting life come through us It’s about hanging out in the unknown Problems are a reflection of our level of consciousness Health is available regardless of the diagnosis Thinking always looks compelling We are not unique in our pathology It’s what is true for everyone Every moment is fresh, unwritten Everything can be seen through different lenses The cage door is always open Home is available at all times Just be willing to look in a new direction Look for a beautiful feeling, do more of that You can find Rachel’s website here The post Misunderstanding of Health appeared first on Misunderstandings of the mind.

Misunderstanding of Self Esteem | Dr Mark Howard & Jason Shiers

A conversation with Dr Mark Howard on the misunderstanding of self esteem, why we spend years if not a lifetime looking outside of ourselves to find the very thing that can only be found within… It is way too simple right? that cannot be true, there are whole industries created on improving self esteem, tricks, techniques and ways to improve it on a daily basis… but is there any self to develop? Listen in to hear more. What really is self esteem? Is it something we do? Children are born with it It’s who we are We try to find it outside It’s beyond habits of practice It’s in the discovering of who you are It’s something we know on a deep level Its equal for everyone It’s our own guiding system All the answers are in simplicity Seen through insight into our true nature It is regardless of the past You can find Mark at his website here The post Misunderstanding of Self Esteem appeared first on Misunderstandings of the mind.

Misunderstanding of Post Traumatic Stress | David Hill & Jason Shiers

A beautiful sharing of the simplicity of the human condition and our innate mental health by David Hill around the subject of post traumatic stress. It is such a well debated touchy subject, and easy to get lost in complicated solutions (which we talk about in the podcast). When you just see the relationship between thought and experience, things looks completely different. Enjoy Is the story true? Everything is happening now We create the past now via thought There are no answers in the past We create meaning in our mind We underestimate the power of presence We don’t have to react to our thoughts People’s lives improve when they see the connection It’s not complicated or clever It’s way too simple to understand There is a solution to Post traumatic stress Consciousness brings thought to life Post traumatic stress is not a disorder Thought storms pass no matter what Theories about experience are not facts If people could just the role of thought Humans engineer a complicated world Look this way and see what you an see It’s not rocket science You can see something fresh at any point Struggles mean we’re about to learn something new Transformation comes in a moment Nothing changes but everything looks different David can be found at his website here.  Missing in Action here  also here is the YouTube Channel David talks about with The Missing Link for Veterans The post Misunderstanding of Post Traumatic Stress appeared first on Misunderstandings of the mind.

Misunderstanding of Happiness | Dr Giles Croft & Jason Shiers

A wonderful conversation with Dr Giles p Croft on understanding the source of true happiness, it’s not what you think, or maybe it is. When we get beyond our own efforts to create happiness we see that it’s always there and there is nothing to do to get it. It’s not found outside of you It’s not about things We innocently search for it It’s always available right now Things don’t need to be different We do whatever makes sense Happiness is your default It’s in the present moment We all get lost in thought Our mind cannot see how simple it is Can we slow down enough? We create the past in the present All there ever is is now Happiness is available regardless The stories we tell ourselves It’s not about effort There is a part of that recognises truth Happiness is there all the time We just cover it up with our own thinking The solution to everything is now You can contact Giles at his website here The post Misunderstanding of Happiness appeared first on Misunderstandings of the mind.

Misunderstanding of Listening

A powerful and insightful conversation with Dr Linda Pettit who has been influential on my own journey in so many ways. This discussion with Linda highlights the common misunderstandings about listening, highlights what we are listening for, and what is always true. It’s not active listening or listening to reply Or listening to analyse Or listening to critique Or listening to remember Or listening for answer Listening beyond the filter It’s the key to life changing insight Listening for feelings Listening with the willingness to be influenced It’s being open to something new Listening to see something new Listening to intuition Not listening for anything We are all connected We are one You can’t get it You can’t work it out Listening for love It’s always showing itself You can contact Linda at her website here The post Misunderstanding of Listening appeared first on Misunderstandings of the mind.

Misunderstanding of Trauma | Dr Thomas Kelley & Jason Shiers

A fun conversation with Dr Thomas Kelley on how a simple understanding of how the mind works, free’s people from their thinking about themselves. I often get taken by the simplicity of the conversations on the podcast and this one was no different. While expecting a big complex old explanation, I was taken back by how simply Tom shares. Understanding where experience comes from is the birth of self responsibility and the absence of blame. Trauma exists while we think it does We make the connection in our own mind When we stop connecting the dots Understanding is not intellectual Whatever people think looks like the truth Everyone wants well-being Everyone has perfect well-being Children rest in well-being easier When you forgive someone you let yourself off the hook Trauma can become an important part of self image People think they are their thoughts Mental health bubbles up when your mind clears Principles are fundamental truths All answers are in simplicity Getting people to listen from not knowing Nothing happens until insight Complexity collapses into simplicity We always know when something is not right We know when someone is truly present To get in contact with Dr Kelley, you can email him here The post Misunderstanding of Trauma appeared first on Misunderstandings of the mind.
