About Shift Into Freedom: The Science And Practice Of

Product Description Shift Into Freedom: Best Book of the Year Awards "Top 10 Best Books of the Year" - Spirituality & Health Magazine "Best Spiritual Books of Year" - Spirituality & Practice  Meditation is one of the most important things to learn in order to live a life of joy, health and love. This is a rare meditation book that offers advanced meditations made simple. Loch Kelly goes to the root of suffering by introducing us to the ultimate medicine of awake awareness. This natural capacity of awake awareness is already available within us and Loch shows us how to shift into living from this effortless awareness immediately using his  short glimpse practices. Loch presents us with the possibility that awakening can be the natural next stage of human development. Awakening is not a rare event limited to those who leave for the monastery or cave. We can awaken in the midst of our daily lives by discovering what Loch Kelly calls "open-hearted awareness."  For the past two decades, this innovative psychotherapist and meditation teacher has been helping people from every background learn how to access a spacious, natural way of living in tune with a deeper truth. Shift into Freedom presents Loch Kelly's original synthesis of ancient wisdom, modern psychological insights, current neuroscience research, and unique awareness practices for the body, mind, and heart.  Written for both first-time and lifelong meditators, here is a training guide filled with simple and effective experiential tools for "unhooking" awareness from our chattering minds and dropping into our awake heart space, expanding our sense of intimacy and interconnection, and embodying inner peace, clarity, and love. Review "A meditation teacher and psychotherapist, Kelly offers a way to enter into 'open-hearted awareness' through the course of daily life. He distills wisdom, research, and experience and shares practices that help would-be and seasoned meditators access what Kelly describes as "our natural state."  Spirituality & Health Magazine, Top 10 Best Book Awards "This important spiritual practice has a special relevance to our times when so many hearts and minds are closed to others and the clenched fist rather than the kiss of peace prevails. We are grateful to Loch Kelly for his thought-provoking and practice-oriented book on open-hearted awareness." -  Spirituality & Practice, Best Spiritual Book of the Year Awards "Loch Kelly is one of the clearest expressions of authentic awakened freedom and love that I know. Shift Into Freedom a shining gem in the modern spiritual landscape. This book is wise and loving medicine for anyone who is ready to take responsibility for their own liberation here and now." ~ From the Foreword by Adyashanti "Kelly's guide to finer spiritual living maintains a non-psychological, non-denominational, and contemporary focus, drawing on wisdom from a diverse selection of traditional teachings, including Mahamudra practice, Taoist teaching, the works of William James, and modern neuroscience. Kelly articulates his structured, unified worldview with coherent language. He stresses a move away from ego-identification in our everyday lives and believes that access to awakening experiences is universally available: 'awake awareness' is not reserved for full time spiritual seekers, but is in fact the next developmental step for humankind's new normal. Practices that Kelly calls 'glimpses' take readers through the basics of mindful meditation and then through techniques some other teachers reserve for advanced study, including the process of unhooking local awareness from thought, waking up to transcendence, waking in to embodiment, and waking out to interconnectedness. Those who feel that other mindfulness texts are esoteric, foreign, or flaky will find Kelly's exercises easy to understand, his research easy to respect, and his methods blissfully lacking in both the aggressiveness
