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
