Story
"Effortless mindfulness" is a new way to immediately enter an optimal flow state available to us in the midst of our busy lives. In The Way of Effortless Mindfulness, Kelly teaches that when you "unhook" awareness from chattering thoughts, you can access a peaceful mind and a naturally embodied wakefulness. From this heartful space, students report they find that right action comes easily and a loving tenderness for all of life is freely available. This book outlines practical and supportive material from neuroscience, psychology, and the wisdom of various spiritual traditions.

'Reason and imagination and all mental chatter died down... I forgot my name, my humanness, my thingness, all that could be called me or mine. Past and future dropped away... Lighter than air, clearer than glass, altogether released from myself, I was nowhere around.' Thus Douglas Harding describes his first experience of headlessness, or no self. First published in 1961, this is a classic work which conveys the experience that mystics of all times have tried to put words to.

Story
In this groundbreaking audiobook, neuropsychology professor Chris Niebauer explains how after decades of research on the brain, Western science may have inadvertently confirmed a fundamental tenet of Buddhism: anatta, or the doctrine of "no self". Niebauer shows how findings in neuropsychology suggest that our sense of self is actually an illusion created by the left side of the brain and that it exists in the same way a mirage in the middle of the desert exists: as a thought rather than a thing.

Adyashanti asks us to let go of our struggles with life and open to the full promise of spiritual awakening: the end of delusion and the discovery and expression of our essential being. After 15 years as a spiritual teacher, Adyashanti has found that the simpler the teaching, the greater its power to initiate this awakening. On Falling into Grace, he shares what he considers fundamental insights to "open ourselves to that mysterious element that enters in the hidden and quiet moments and sparks a revolution in the way that we perceive life."

What would happen if you were to allow everything to be exactly as it is? If you gave up the need for control, and instead embraced the whole of your experience in each moment that arose? In the 14 years that he studied Zen, Adyashanti found that most seasoned meditators had used the practice as a means to a goal they never reached.

The life of Jesus offers each one of us a map to the direct realization of our eternal and divine nature. On Resurrecting Jesus, Adyashanti excavates the deep, mythic underpinnings of the Gospels to show how we can all find in the story of Jesus the spark for our own spiritual unfolding. Jesus crossed all of the boundary lines that separated the people of his time because he viewed the world from the perspective of what unites us, not what divides us.

Story
"So many of us hold a deep belief that we were born unworthy," reflects Adyashanti, "inadequate, unlovable, and alone." But what if, in truth, we weren't put here to pay penance, change our karma, or "fix" ourselves? What if we chose to be here because we so loved the world that we poured ourselves into it - to make it whole again, to restore "the hidden divinity amid the disaster"? With Healing the Core Wound of Unworthiness, we're invited to entertain that possibility.

Story
This book is about the heart of religious experience, namely Enlightenment (which is finding the truth concerning oneself), and about science (which is finding the truth concerning other things), and about the relationship between them. It claims that Enlightenment is more truly scientific than science itself; and that, without Enlightenment, science is only half the story and therefore full of contradictions, of insoluble problems both theoretical and practical.

Through teaching stories, true accounts, eye-opening revelations, and his one-of-a-kind sense of humor, this legendary teacher helps show us the way out of the prison of our self-identity - and into the joy of being at once “nobody” and the universal divine at play in the world.

Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche’s experience begins the night he has chosen to embark on a four-year wandering retreat, slipping past the monastery gates. Alone for the first time in his life, he sets out into the unknown. His initial motivation is to step away from his life of privilege and to explore the deepest, most hidden aspects of his being, but what he discovers throughout his retreat - about himself and about the world around us - comes to define his meditation practice and teaching.

Panpsychism
- By ron murp on 21-04-20
Summary
Our most cherished times are those occasions when we feel open, loving, free of worry yet able to respond when needed. Loch Kelly calls this the expression of open-hearted awareness, our natural foundation of mind that arises effortlessly whenever we step out of the usual mode of consciousness known as ego-identification. Created as a stand-alone program or a complement to his book of the same name, Shift into Freedom is a progressive training guide that offers "small glimpses, many times" to help us shift out of our chattering mind and into who we really are.
- Join this innovative teacher to explore more than 20 meditations including:
- Awareness Yoga - a foundational practice in moving awareness
- Embodied Presence - a practice for deeply feeling unity and acceptance
- Unhook, Drop, Open, See, Include, Know, Let Be - a way to shift levels of mind that culminates in living from open-hearted awareness
"The goal of these meditations is not to transcend the human condition," explains Loch Kelly, "but to discover how to live a fully intimate human life." Shift into Freedom gives you the tools to navigate your life with clarity and unconditional love.

Great compile of exercises! Best in Audible format.
Love how he pauses on audible to let the exercises sink in. Maybe a coincidence, but with the audio, I'm noticing my stories dropping away into awareness quickly. Grateful for the compile. Thanks a lot Loch Kelly, from the bottom of the dimensionless heart ❤️

Shift into freedom
I felt successfully guided to finally be able to merge with the real me. I felt an amazing joy and still feel the sensation of being connected. I hope this sensation last forever. It will be great to be able to live this projected reality while remembering what we really are. I I certainly hope that practice will help me to achieve that.
Thank you Loch for this amazing audio.

Simple, Profound, & Liberating.
What other book might you compare Shift into Freedom to and why?
I would compare Loch's "Shift Into Freedom" with Eckhart Tolle's "The Power of Now" and Michael Singer's "Untethered Soul." Like those books, Loch's perspective redirects our awareness to the potential immediacy and all-pervasiveness of our freedom. Yet unlike those books, Loch is able to provide the listener with a variety of unique practices that help us tune into subtler dimensions of consciousness that are already awake, peaceful, accepting, and wise.

powerful and transformative
following these excercises over and over again, and integrating them in you daily life can be very transformative, especially for seasoned, more advanced meditators, and I cannot recommend this enough. Loch is a kind, gentle and very skillful guide, and just letting go and diving deep into this material can have amazing and profound effects, but this one must experience for him or herself, words cannot contain this. if you are a serious follower of the way, then this is what you've been looking for, this stuff is the real deal. Thank you Loch, with much respect and grattitude!

Easy to learn and profound
These glimpse practices provide straight forward and effective means to awaken, embody, and live from awareness. The approach is actually easier to learn in my experience than more mainstream forms of meditation or mindfulness yields more and deeper positive outcomes.
