We will be talking about Loch Kelly's book Shift into freedom: the science and practice of open-hearted awareness
It is possible to access the same sense of well-being, clarity, inner freedom, and loving connection realized by the world's meditation masters. We can do this by shifting our awareness in the midst of our daily lives. Shift into Freedom presents innovative teacher Loch Kelly's training manual for actively participating in the evolution of your own consciousness. Loch synthesizes insights from neuroscience and psychology with wisdom from the world's contemplative traditions. Join him to learn how to unhook awareness from its usual place in our ego-based - then live from an embodied presence and relatedness known as "open-hearted awareness." Loch teaches that this is "the meeting place of awakening and growing up, where we have the capacity to live a fully emotional, intimate life with authenticity and compassion."
