You Are Not Your Mind

Gareth Michael & Kim Jewell
About this episode

Do you ever feel like your mind is working against you on your spiritual journey? In this week’s thought-provoking episode, Gareth and Kim explore the complex world of the mind and its relationship with our spiritual growth, sharing their own personal experiences and insights.

They look at the different perspectives and recommendations about how to approach the mind, discussing the spiritual books and authors that have influenced them, and the importance of not assuming their reality applies to our own lives. You'll discover the complex relationship between the mind, body, emotions, and soul, and how exploring these aspects can lead to self-understanding and spiritual growth.

They examine the role our minds play in our everyday lives, and share their own learnings about building a healthy relationship with our minds for greater understanding and spiritual peace. Learn how embracing your whole self and examining past events can help us grow and thrive on our spiritual paths. You won't want to miss this enlightening conversation about working with your mind to achieve a deeper connection with your true self.
