From Small self to Self Leadership

Épisode 37

mercredi 25 juin 2025 • Durée 26:29

In this episode, we take a fresh look at the journey from our everyday, habitual sense of ego-centered identity—the “small self”—toward discovering and living from our True Nature or what IFS calls Self Leadership. Through a guided glimpse practice and gentle inquiry at the end, we explore how to unblend from the thinker or manager part of the mind and shift into the spacious, compassionate presence of Self.

You’ll learn to recognize the levels of identity—from ego-centered small self to Self Essence, Self Energy, and then Self Leadership. Rather than dissolving parts or pushing them away, we honor them as expressions of natural humanity. By shifting into Awake Awareness as the foundation of Self Essence, we gain access to qualities like clarity, curiosity, and compassion, allowing us to relate to our parts from the Self within that has the capacity to heal us.

This episode offers a direct taste of what it's like to unhook from our ego's effort and rest in the open-hearted, effortless flow of Self Leadership. You'll walk away with a glimpse practice for identifying your parts, creating space around them, and leading your inner life from the natural wisdom of Self. This isn’t about spiritually bypassing or calming our parts—it’s about welcoming, listening, and returning home to who you truly are.

An Introduction to the Five Levels of Mind

mercredi 28 août 2024 • Durée 34:51

In this episode, Loch introduces a pillar of the Effortless Mindfulness model called the Five Levels of Mind. He refers to these five levels as Everyday Mind, Subtle Mind, Awake Aware Mind, Unity Mind, and Heartmind. In this show, Loch explores and unpacks how the first two levels of mind involve working with the body and mind to calm and stabilize them. The next three levels of mind make up a second tier, so to speak, providing access to a deeper sense of fundamental well-being, compassion and wisdom. Effortless Mindfulness really begins with the shift into the awake aware mind—an awareness-based way of knowing that exists prior to thought and can use thought as needed. Then the next two levels allow us to embody and live from a more connected feeling of flow. This episode provides tools, tips, and insights for how you can tune into your already awake mind, shift through the deeper levels of mind, and navigate your own consciousness with greater compassion, clarity, and loving flow.

3 Common Obstacles to Awakening That Are Impeding Your Meditation Practice

And How to Break Through to the Next Level with Compassion and Flow

Every great meditative tradition the world over has major maps of the significant steps or stages in meditation as their tradition has come to understand and practice them. And what significant research has demonstrated is that virtually all of them follow the four or five major natural states of consciousness given cross-culturally and universally to all human beings. ~ Ken Wilber, Integral Philosopher and Author
