Your Anger Problem Isn't Anger Itself (Awakening Insight)

Why does it sometimes feel like something's still missing - even after deep insight?In this short episode, Simon explores the hidden motivations behind the search for awakening, the role of self-worth in seeking, and why surrender matters more than chasing another breakthrough.

In this episode, Alex and I share a five-month update since my awakening experience - and how it’s actually showing up in our relationship. One of the biggest misconceptions about spiritual awakening is that it removes triggers or makes you permanently peaceful. That hasn’t been our experience.We talk honestly about what’s changed, what hasn’t, and how old relational patterns still surface - but are met differently. We also share some news about upcoming retreats and what we’re building next.Free 15 minute 1:1 coaching consultation: https://calendly.com/simon-wgw/simon-mundie-intro-callWatch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vnHCpGupiasFollow Alex: https://www.instagram.com/iamalexandrawilby/ Hosted on Acast.

Many people struggle to say no without over-explaining — not because they lack communication skills, but because part of them feels unsafe being misunderstood.In this episode, Simon explores the deeper emotional pattern behind over-explaining and how meeting the underlying feeling with presence and compassion naturally leads to clearer boundaries and greater self-trust.If this resonates, you can book a coaching consultation here: https://calendly.com/simon-wgw/simon-mundie-intro-callYou can watch this video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HZpyxkwHVsFor a gift of 30 free meditation sessions on Henry Shukman's meditation app 'The Way' - click here: https://the-way.app.link/simonFor more information on The Way head here: http://thewayapp.com/simon Hosted on Acast.

In this conversation, I’m joined by physicist and microprocessor pioneer Federico Faggin for an exploration of consciousness, reality, and awakening. Federico is widely recognised for his role in shaping modern computing, yet after years of professional success he found himself deeply unhappy. In 1990, a spontaneous awakening experience radically shifted how he understood himself and the nature of reality. Rather than dismissing that experience, he spent decades integrating it with science, leading him to a view in which consciousness and free will are fundamental to the universe, not products of the brain. We talk about direct experience, science, meaning, and what all this might mean for humanity at this point in time.In this conversation, we explore:Federico’s background in physics and computing, and how his inner life didn’t match his outer successWhy professional achievement alone didn’t bring fulfilmentFederico’s spontaneous awakening experience in 1990 and how it changed everythingThe importance of direct experience over concepts or beliefsWhy love is not something we find outside ourselvesHow Federico developed his model of reality after his awakeningQuantum physics explained in clear, simple termsA practical analogy for understanding the collapse of the wave functionThe limitations of materialism and the flaws of “scientism”Free will, the separate self, and what it really means to chooseThe deeper purpose of the human experienceHow suffering, war, and evil can be understood through this lensSimon’s own kenshō experience and what followedThe difference between talking about awakening and living itWhy responsibility and honesty are essential for real awakeningThe post-awakening “dark night” and integrationWhy this moment in history feels pivotalThe relationship between fear, science, and belief systemsWhy consciousness must be the starting pointThe spiritual quickening happening nowWhat needs to change — individually and collectivelyWhy love, ultimately, matters more than fear1:1 COACHING CONSULTATION:: https://calendly.com/simon-wgw/find-your-flow-intro-chatMy YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@IAmSimonMundieGroup coaching enquiry (and retreats): [email protected] energy work with Alex: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.

This is a real example from my own life of how self-abandonment can show up in very subtle ways — and what changes when you stay with yourself instead.

Every January there's a familiar conversation about becoming someone new. But real change doesn’t come from trying to fix a 'broken self.' Lasting change comes from stopping self-abandonment — learning to listen to what you feel, know and need, rather than overriding yourself to cope, please or perform. When you stop betraying yourself in small, everyday ways, clarity returns, boundaries become simpler, and life begins to flow with far less struggle.I am hosting a free webinar next Tuesday January 13th at 8pm called How To Stop Abandoning Yourself (and Live From Presence).Register here: https://zoom.us/meeting/register/b-bZ_YIJRZClJPdyluZeLg#/registrationRead about my coaching or book a consultation: https://calendly.com/simon-wgw/find-your-flow-intro-chatYouTube subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@IAmSimonMundieSubstack subscribe: https://substack.com/@simonmundie Hosted on Acast.

What If The Point Of Life Is Simply To Become More Loving? In this conversation, I’m joined by physicist and consciousness researcher Tom Campbell, author of My Big TOE (Theory Of Everything). We explore a simple but profound idea: that life is less about extraordinary experiences and more about the everyday choice between fear and love. Tom shares his view that consciousness evolves through how we live — through honesty, responsibility, and the way we treat ourselves and others — especially at a time when humanity feels increasingly divided.For 1:1 coaching book a consultation: https://calendly.com/simon-wgw/find-your-flow-intro-chatYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@IAmSimonMundieSubstack: https://substack.com/@simonmundieFree Course: https://www.simonmundie.com/restore-balance-mini-courseFor info on group coaching: [email protected] a gift of 30 free meditation sessions on Henry Shukman's app 'The Way' - click here: https://the-way.app.link/simon Hosted on Acast.
