One of the common challenges students face, when trying to silently observe their thoughts, as part of a meditation or mindfulness practice, is that their monkey mind plays games.
Our thoughts are running in the background, practically all of the time. They’re chattering, passing judgement, analysing, debating, reviewing, nagging, reminding and doing a thousand other things, while we carry on with our day. Sometimes the simple action of stopping our ‘busy-ness’ to become the observer of our thoughts can seem overwhelming.
That’s when the #1 meditation myth kicks in. [Read more…] about How Falling In Love With Your Monkey Mind Can Be The Key To Inner Peace
Have you ever noticed how much we all love telling stories? I’m not talking Jackanory here – we’re much more subtle.
Our ‘monkey mind’ (the part of us that does the running commentary, whatever we’re doing) is rarely off-duty and relishes a little drama. It believes that life without our own personal soap opera would be about as exciting as Christmas without the cranberry sauce.
And the thing is that the monkey mind is far from being a neutral observer. It much prefers to pass comment on everything that’s going on, feeding the currently-favoured emotion like bellows on an open fire.
And I had a lovely reminder of this a little while ago. [Read more…] about Time To Stop Feeding Your ‘Monkey Mind’?
I've been where you're at. I have got the proverbial t-shirt from doing every course I could find, trying out every hot-new-stuff technique, reading gazillions of 'this-fixes-everything' articles, listening to podcasts, watching countless videos, and spending a fortune on high-end programmes, trying to figure out ways to satisfy my deep-down hunger to make the difference I knew I was here to make.
But, despite the promises, the results were hit and miss. And, worse:
I thought it was my fault.
Nowadays, in the work I do, I see so many passionate world-changers - entrepreneurs and business managers - who have spent thousands on every programme and training they can find, so they can be the best they can be, and make the difference they dream of.
But it isn't working for them, either.
Over the years, I spent THOUSANDS, studying with the best of the best of small business mentors and personal development trainers, but I never seemed to get the results they got. And, if I'm totally honest, I felt like a failure and a fraud.
But nobody was talking about this.
Instead, my social media feed and email inbox were full of glossy images of super-successful people telling me that their strategy was the only one that could ever work for me. Newbie coaches were packaging themselves as experienced business mentors. People with great photography and fabulous graphic designers were telling me it was all down to how I was / wasn't using social media, or Facebook ads, or the right email sequences, or 'conversion tactics', or some other 'outside world' strategy. Or it was because I was 'broken' - I wasn't thinking the 'right' thoughts or doing the right 'manifesting' rituals, so it was all my fault.
Then one day the lightbulb went on. I woke up and realised that I was putting all of the effort into the 'outside actions', but not focusing on clearing out my hidden 'inside world' blocks. As an NLP Trainer ('user manual' for your brain) since 2003, that was a bit of an embarrassing DUH moment. 😉
I was subconsciously self-sabotaging. I was being held back by self-imposed glass ceilings that I didn't even realise were there. I was secretly terrified of being successful. So a tiny bit inside of me made sure I kept playing small, no matter how big I was dreaming.
The breakthroughs finally came when I got totally clear about my Big Vision and reconnected with my passion.
I got excited about clearing out those hidden blocks, beliefs, fears, excuses and habits that had been getting in the way. Otherwise there was no way I was going to be able take the inspired action that was needed for me to reach the audience that was desperate to hear my message.
I want it to work for you, too.
I want you to be able to stop having to work so hard. I dream of a day when you can easily step into your Soul-Shoes and show the world your authentic Inner Genius, without feeling fearful or worrying about what others might think.
I feel passionately about empowering you to make the difference you are longing to make, living your life’s purpose to the full and inspiring others to do the same.
And I have spent the past 15 years specialising in helping people just like you to do the ‘inside work’ that makes their ‘outside dreams’ fall into place.
My mentoring clients know my secret - that there are three steps to setting yourself free to make the difference you're here to make in the world:
GET TOTALLY CLEAR ABOUT WHAT YOU WANT
Get 110% connected with a Big Vision that excites and inspires you - and energises you.
So few of us really have this level of clarity. But when you're deeply connected with your Big Why and the difference you're uniquely here to make, it gives you fast-track access to the passion that will give you the courage to stretch old comfort zones and get your message out there, making the difference you're here to make.
CLEAR OUT YOUR HIDDEN BLOCKS
Discover how to spot - and easily release - the hidden blocks, fears, excuses and worries that have kept you playing small.
You can put an end to self-doubt, self-sabotage and feeling like a fraud. You can crank up your confidence, so that you no longer subconsciously use overwhelm and procrastination to protect yourself from your secret fear of being seen - and even being successful.
TAKE INSPIRED ACTION - DO THE STUFF THAT OUGHT TO SCARE YOU!
Take the actions that create breakthroughs, not overwhelm. Learn how to trust your intuition - and how to connect with your Dream Team.
You can find yourself feeling excited about your work again, feeling in flow, rather than feeling like you're having to try too hard, constantly pushing boulders uphill through treacle. And things fall into place more easily, taking less time and energy to get better results.
In your Dare To Dream Bigger Deep Dive Mastermind, I spill the beans on the gems I have discovered from 15 years of mentoring passionate World-Changers. It means you can take years (and $000s!) off your journey towards making the difference you're here to make in the world with your business.

Working with Clare created breakthroughs.
Clare has a way of explaining things you already knew so you create breakthroughs. The support group made such a difference and we're still there for each other, months later.
Clare's Mastermind is a safe space where you can grow, share, learn and become the person to need to be to have the business you dream of. Working with Clare has been the difference between being stuck and frustrated and on the path to creating my dream business and life.

Clare has helped me to leverage my gifts.
I have had so many ah-has with Clare’s courses and support. A big thing for me is that I now have clarity for how to pivot my business that is truly me - leverage my gifts.
I have been stuck helping people with their problems outside my gifts which has slowed down my dream business. Clare also turned on the lightbulb for me so I have inner motivation to carry me all the way through.
Lastly, working with Clare pushed me to get clearer on who I should focus on attracting - ideal target market, who I give the biggest transformation for.
You might be running a business, you might be a freelancer or you might be self-employed. The 'inside work' we do in the Dare To Dream Bigger Deep Dive Mastermind will work for you, whatever it is you are doing with your days - and whatever it is that you want to achieve or create.
If you enjoy the way I work and want to make more of a commitment to yourself and your future, but aren't yet ready for one-to-one mentoring, then the Dare To Dream Bigger Deep Dive Mastermind is the perfect way to take the next step. In it, I share with you the 'inside work' that makes the vital 'outside world' difference.
Each week's live training lasts about half an hour, plus you might spend a few hours on that week's worksheet actions and discussions about the key strategies we cover.
The weekly Q&A call lasts up to an hour.
There will be integration weeks, where you don't get new material, but still have a Q&A call.
But the time commitment is entirely up to you. It's all designed to be easy to fit in around your schedule, but you will need to mark out time in your diary, to get the most from your Mastermind. I can't do that for you!
But I can help you to find the time - you'll get my hugely popular training on 'how to magically make more time' before we start!
Less than the cost of a one-hour mentoring session with me.
The early bird rate is just £297.
The full price will be £497.
And your bonuses, alone, would normally cost more than that.
How much would it be worth to you to FINALLY make 2018 the year when...?
This is an early bird rate and only lasts until the end of this week. The full rate is £497.

Here are some frequently asked questions. If yours isn't answered here, please contact my team for help.
No problem! The meaty discussions behind the live Masterclasses and training courses take place in my Google-proof forum, not on Facebook.
And you'll find out about each week's events via email.
Yes please! This programme is for people stepping up to the next level. If you're just starting out, at the 'ideas' stage, it will be too advanced for you.
But your business doesn't have to be full time. In fact, moving from 'hobby' to 'salary-paying business' is one of the major reasons why people love Masterminding with me.
All you need is a half-decent internet connection. All sessions are run via the internet and you'll get a unique link to click, to join us 'in the room'. You can ask questions in advance, by email or via our online community events page, or via the live chat, while we're on air.
You can also download the video and audio replays, so you can watch them offline, perhaps in your favourite cafe? ;-)
The live Q&A calls include hot seat sessions for those who have submitted questions in advance (first come, first served). You can join in via the internet and ask questions live.
For both the video training sessions and the live Q&A calls, you can submit your questions in advance and I'll do my best to cover them.
As a Mastermind member, you also get access to the replays and you get both the video and audio of the call or Masterclass to download and watch offline.
There's no rush!
You have access to the recordings of your training and live calls for the full year of 2018.
P.S. Only you can decide if the Dare To Dream Bigger Deep Dive Mastermind is right for you.
But if you have any questions that are getting in the way of you saying 'yes!' to the future you have been dreaming of, then please do get in touch. I don't want you to risk missing out, just because something isn't clear or you're not sure how it might work for you. xx Clare
