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?

This episode is a conversation with Helen Amery, a fellow coach of the understanding behind Quality of Mind, who poses an excellent exploration, the difference between being 'awake' and having an 'enlightened life'.  Do we need to be 'awake' to have an enlightened life?  What do those words even mean? Explore with us on this episode... The discussion covers: What do we mean by those words?  A simple description If we have a recognition of being 'awake' does that lead to an enlightened life? What makes it hard to have an enlightened life without a recognition of 'our true nature' Two more words - The difference between 'inquiry' and 'reflection' How different coaching approaches start from different places; what truly makes the difference Is this relevant for the workplace? What does it offer? How psychological safety is an innocent reverse engineering due to a misunderstanding Some of the indicators that you might be on the path to either....

Kate has over 20 years experience in the corporate world - as a consultant and coach.  Have you ever noticed that spark in life has dulled, or the feeling of joy for no reason has evaporated?  Are you surviving rather than thriving?

Helen Amery the co-author, has been a regular on the show  and she is joined by Sara Priestley to discuss how they developed 'The Complete Book of Awakening'. In this episode we discuss: How the book – The Complete Book of Awakening - came about Why the book is called “Complete” The definition of awakening Who the book is for  -Why this isn't a book to ‘read for gist' Why the book removes all spiritual dogma and paradox Why direct inquiry and logic are a powerful combination The three levels of experience and putting them in their right order Why our conceptual labels don't reflect reality Why resistance arises during an awakening inquiry and why that's OK Why this inquiry is your own – you have to see it for yourself – and why the outcome isn't a life floating in bliss as many imagine it to be Why goals of a nicer life must be put secondary to seeing your essential nature How do you know if you've recognsied your essential nature – awakened? Why awakening results in the behaviour changes that we usually ‘try' to make happen in business Curious - want to know more?

This podcast series explores a game-changing understanding of the human mind 'before psychology' that can exponentially increase the performance, resourcefulness and well-being for any individual or organisation.   Explore with us! This a different type of episode to usual, as we conduct a real time 'direct experience self inquiry'. You can listen and explore along with us, as Katrijn and I chat with Emily, who bravely volunteered to be our live demonstration subject. A direct experience self inquiry is a process whereby someone explores the nature of what something is - using ‘direct experience' i.e. not using beliefs or learnt concepts, but instead exploring in a fresh, non-intellectual, almost 'sensing' way. The benefit from this is foundational, as it underpins all our work in Quality of Mind and the wonderful impact that can have on someone's life and work.
