Superpowered Mind with Clare Dimond

Listener question:  hi Clare - It seems like denial to me to bring in any discussion of thoughts and beliefs when it comes to stress. My circumstances are really bad at the moment. It is that causing the issue not beliefs. To say otherwise is actually dangerous as you are saying I’m making it all up... 

Listener question: Am still struggling to understand the ‘what’s at stake’ part of going deeper and being curious and feeling the feelings. I feel like there are so many patterns and conditioning bubbling to the surface to be seen, but when I ask the question ‘what is at stake’ I come up with an answer and I don’t know if it’s true. Or my mind just making something up? Or I just hit a brick wall....

Listener question: Dear Clare I believe that I have heard you say in your courses that we never want suffering to end. Could you please say more about that and how suffering is a gift?

The concept of the fork implies a choice and someone who makes the choice to go left or right. But i notice that when the ‘me’ tries to make this choice, it gets messy. When I reflect on that, i think it is kinda obvious why that is the case: a me that is making a choice consists out of thoughts about a self image, choices and forks. So that is the mind taking the left route. I also notice the ‘ur...

Creation has always been a struggle. Now I understand the depth of confusion around identification. And as you suggest, it seems to originate at school. The profound need for validation borned from the possibility of failing, being wrong, or even worse: insignificant. These days I have brief moments of lightness, but the habit of creating in order to prove myself (or find some kind of security/sat...

Listener question: I have had a huge shift in my happiness and peace of mind since discovering the 3Ps. Now I feel drawn to teach and coach. How do I know if that is what I should do? How did you know? Ask where / how would I begin? I would love to hear your thoughts.

Listener question: 'My issue is basically experiencing debilitating fear.  Just to explain......To date I have elected not take up the offer of vaccines in relation to the current pandemic.  This decision is based on my own research and I do not judge those that have done differently. I see a time very soon (I know future thinking) when the unvaccinated will be unfairly discriminated against...

Listener question: I participate in your June  course. You speak about going deeper. Can you elaborate on the proces of going deeper? What is it? How does one do it?  What I hear in this is that one becomes silent and witnesses what is playing out ‘behind the scenes’. Scrutinise your thought. But everytime I ‘do’ this, I get stuck in the weeds. Like I get sucked in the fantasy world of thought and...

Would it be fair to say that the primary characteristic of disidentified creation is the state of flow?  When I am simply delighting in how the line or the colors unfold on the canvas, or thrilling to a particularly delightful turn of phrase that has just emerged from nowhere.  Or, is that yet another elaborate trick of the identity claiming not to be there?  In other words, is a “pure“ state of f...

I am writing with a question that is not so much for myself that I ask as for another who has seemingly been in a state of constant crisis for the last several months. The constant agitation of her mind has her body in perpetual overdrive, which leads to a lot of misery and loss of sleep.  She is quite frightened by the whole experience and even wondering whether there ever will be a solution and...

I have a question for you that maybe you can address on a podcast if appropriate. My question is about all the conspiracy theories flying around about what's currently going on in the world (some of which are quite frightening!!). Going back to basics, it seems that nothing is really true. If everything is simply a reflection of the identity, do conspiracy theories appearing everywhere in fro...

Listener question: As a follow up from today’s podcast can you please talk more about what you mean by ‘going into the body’ I’ve spent years scanning the body as a way to determine ‘how I’m doing’ This is unhelpful as it just ramps up my thinking! How is what you’re proposing different?

Listener question: Can you say more about when something is a pattern from the brain-body keeping an idea of self in place versus when it's a quality of unique beingness? It seems like anything can be either.  In looking over patterns from a no-self accountability perspective, some patterns seem like they are preferences of this brain-body...sometimes keeping a self in place and sometimes not...

Listener question: Just woke up. My alarm went off. I noticed for a very few seconds, kindness, friendliness. Then thoughts came, you have to, must (work etc). I started to think this at a certain moment in my life. I feel miserable right now, heavy, low, haert beating (almost every morning). It is hard to to let those thoughts feelings go, I think they scare me so much that I want to reduce them...

In your opinion, was the Jewish Holocaust a factual event that occurred between 1939 and 1945?

Listener question: I would like to enjoy life and do things but my limiting beliefs and emotions just won't let me... I suffer daily from intense negative emotions and feelings.. And 3 days ago i found out that the woman i love wants to date with another man.. It crushed me into pieces with jealousy anxiety sadness and fear.. The intense emotion is sooo uncomfortable... It makes me very diffi...

I have a short question: You speak often of going deeper into the experience and asking ourselves „what’s at stake here?“ That’s the point where the mind usually goes totally blank.  Could you maybe give us some real life examples of how this would look, feel, be in simple terms please?

Listener question:  Dear Clare I wonder if you have any help regarding anxiety? My anxiety has been in the background for the last 15 years.  And I feel like all the actions I do are just to avoid feeling it. The discomfort is too much. I'd love my anxiety to end for good. Is there a way to get rid of it other than to just accept living with it? 

hi Clare  Can you talk about boundaries and relationships please? I’m in a relationship and I like him very much but I don’t know if he is good for me and I don’t know if that is just my fears of imtimacy resulting from a difficult childhood or whether it is a wisdom telling me to be careful with someone who could potentially harm or upset me.  Thanks 

Listener question: Clare I’m not doing to great I got sick and still can’t do much physical stuff witch I hate as that’s what I do running football building kids nature swimming o my god just eat that stuff . My mind is all about that stuff and I just can’t accept it I’m so fucking pissed   Off .like finally I think I’ve sorted myself out I’ve had the deepest peace like never ever felt so still an...

Listener question:  there has been a pattern in the past decade plus of judging my partner as "not giving me enough attention" and there is lots of evidence the mind will use to bolster this position. In recent months as I've worked with integration practices or noticing the patterns of self (sometimes called the shadow, or the unconscious) there's been a willingness to receive...

Listener question: how does this blog post fit in this conversation? "Wherever you go, however far you travel, regardless of how hard you try to disconnect, you will always be there. I think, more than anything else, I began to realize the importance of living a life that I can be proud of . Because there is simply no escaping it. You will always be you. You can travel to the ends of earth, b...

Listener question: I can't stop hurting and crying. Am I going insane? What is insanity? 

I loved your analogy about marriage being like a car which can loose its purpose (besides looking pretty in the driveway). On a similar line I was thinking of past relationships like old dresses which became too small in size and are not my style anymore but still hang in my closet. The closet gets so full that no more new clothes fit in - no more new ones fit in and at the same time I cannot wear...
