051 Boring

Today, we’re going to explore the gift of the fun house. The title of this episode came about as I remembered how my son experienced the fun house at a yearly fair in our town. For two years in a row he was scared, running into the same mirror and getting bumps on his head, and then the third year he just thought it was boring. Boring is such a good word when it comes to what the mind creates, the enormous roller coaster that the experience of being can go on in the grip of total identification. But then it gets really interesting when that experience starts to become boring, and that’s what we are going to talk about in this episode. What is Covered: -The grip that the identified mind holds over our existence -Why we almost feel possessed in the moments of a perceived survival threat -How the tension and the drama we’re experiencing can become boring -What boredom signalises to our body-mind -How we can shift from focusing on securing the identity to solving problems -How boredom frees the mind to fully participate in the world Resources: -Learn more about me and my work at -Find me on Facebook -Let’s connect on LinkedIn -Follow me on Instagram
