This episode is a conversation with Helen Amery, a fellow coach of the understanding behind Quality of Mind, who poses an excellent inquiry question that any human being would benefit from exploring - Is the outside world created from the  mind?  Whether you are an experienced 'seeker', or someone who has never considered this question, explore with us on this episode...
The discussion covers:
Is it even the right question? Do we actually experience an outer and inner world?
What can we look to in terms of our direct experience that points to the nature of reality, experience and the mind?
Are we hood winked by our conditioning and perceptions to what might be going on?
So what? Does it matter where it all comes from, and realising how it works?
What's next, what is the relevance, and how to explore further

This podcast series explores a game-changing understanding of the human mind that can exponentially increase the performance, resourcefulness and well-being for any individual or organisation.
 
This episode is a conversation with Clare Dimond, a skilled teacher of the understanding behind Quality of Mind, and a prolific and gifted author.  We discuss what this knowing of the true self and how the mind works, means for how we turn up at work, and how we communicate.
The episodes covers:
How the true freedom to be you, and express yourself gets restricted and shackled by the workplace
How what we see in the world, our beliefs and thoughts are an OUTPUT of the system, not the input  
The invisible limitations most people are sitting in because it looks so real in perception
How we don't turn into a 'push over', or don't get what we want, if we realise the illusion of perception 
The value of navigating the workplace with a psychological cleanliness and neutrality
How our leadership and communication are feeding back to us all the time as to activity of our conditioned mind
