I stopped meditating daily a few years ago because I felt I was getting into mind spaces that felt very alien and I couldn't relate to myself or the world around me in any way. I felt like I was becoming unanchored and drifting away from my life.

Thanks for sharing a bit of this personal background Loch.

Thank you brother! Your book, Effortless Mindfulness has contributed greatly to my innerstanding and peace in life. I am so grateful that you are doing this work!❤

Ripga, comes with profound sense of clarity, who knew my name is Ripga 🤣😂……is so obvious and somehow we forgot, feels like everything is clicking into place….❣️absolutely beautiful, 🙏

Beautiful

As a long term meditation practioneer (zen and vipassana) 12 years ago i lost my wife and my son within 2 months. I went through a long grieving period, crying, meditating...Although I did not awaken through my grieving, my practice deepened and finally, 11 years after the event I experienced deep liberation I read a lot about grieving and I don't think you can avoid grieving after a loss. and you don't awaken after the loss. But it can speed up the process towanrds awakening. So the title is somewhat misleading....

Sam explains very clear nonduality Kellys doesnt

So Grateful. Loch and his Mindful Glimpses app have given me tools to support me in every way. Awake awareness has my back!

"We fail at our efforts to be separate" Adya That is what seems to be happening for me. Open and soften!!

Sailor Bob has a wonderful phrase that can help bring one out of conceptual reality. "Whats wrong with right now if you dont think about it" The heart of simplicity of which you both allude to.

Thank you for this! This is real and human, and what I believe the Divine intends for us as we inhabit these temporary bodies to experience being human. It respects the philosophy of non-duality as something we can experience as a mystical journey. In the Bigger Spiritual Picture, I believe in non-duality in its most loving form. But I would never say I, or any living human, is capable of understanding it. We are not meant to understand it or live it, the way "radical non- duality teachers" would have us believe.. I really can't listen to, or participate with their groups anymore.

Thank you so much Loch, much love.

Super helpful, thank you! ❤

Hi Loch, I found your teachings recently and they have been very helpful. I went through a shift about 7 years ago, listening to Eckhart Tolle explain we are not our thoughts. It “unhooked” all at once for me. Life has been amazing since then but over this past year things have been deepening. I’ve gone through a great deal of shadow/emotional work. I’m wondering, in your experience, was there another “unhooking”? It almost feels like something else wants to let go inside of me. However, when I get to the edge, strong Kundalini arises, and I feel pulled back. Any insight would be appreciated.

Brilliant! Loch's glimpses have changed my life and given me access to what I have longed for. I use the app every day. Such gratitude!

2 of the most luminous guides in my spiritual journey. Such a delight and peace to see you connecting and sharing wisdom and wellbeing. Love you both so much!!! Wow. My heart is glowing.

Just so Great. Thank You both for sharing your experience in this dialogue format about such a valuable topic such as the ‘Integration’ of our mental-emotional parts as we journey the path of Awakening! 🙏🏼 I think of Awakening more as a verb and less as a noun. It’s a process that occurs differently based upon circumstances, yet remains constant. You both offer such precious wisdom. I could listen to you both discuss this topic for … ever. 😊❤

I practiced Insight meditation for many years and sill like it. And, Loch's glimpses on his app have changed my life and given me such sense of relief and joy!

Get unhooked and look fr 🚫🪝➡️🔍

Thank you so much both Loch and Mirabai! You are two who stay true to meditative awakening and full humanity! Your app, Loch, which brings these together these two with simple daily practices has changed my life. So Grateful.

Best teacher ever!

unconditional curiosity

Pity is Not empathy! Empathy is being with a person in their experience, whatever they are experiencing. Compassion is actively working towards easing the suffering of another. Empathy is a being with another in their suffering. Empathy is the Yin to Compassion which is the Yang, both are needed in love, healing and interdependent awareness. Lower forms of Empathy come from parts so can lead to burnout, just like lower forms of compassion that come from parts rather than Self can lead to compassion fatigue. IFS keeps citing one lone study to demonize empathy. Tanya's study has a questionable definition of empathy and meta studies on empathy do not support her claims. I embrace Ifs but it's understanding of empathy is very flawed. There is a huge difference between compassion coming from a part , which is what leads to compassion fatigue and compassion coming from Self which is boundless. The same is true with empathy. Empathy from a part leads to burnout because it references the therapist's part's suffering. Empathy from Self is a being with the unique experience of the other, not arising from one's own part's experience so it is boundless. Dick Schwartz uses this kind of empathy all the time in his demonstrations when Dick selflessly or from Self reflects the feelings of the client. It is beautiful to witness and completes the experience of compassion as the yin completes the yang.

Very nice pointer at 51:59. Many thanks, Loch 🙏

I find I am aware from my jaw and throat area. It just seems to originate strongly from there instead of the heart area. Does any of this matter? Thanks for any insight.

Thank you ❤

Someone give her a carrot

I have tried other apps like Headspace and Waking Up and now I use mindful glimpses which is first time I have found inner peace and ongoing joy. What a gift!

Thanks Loch

Thank you both!!!❤

Thank you. Please close the curtains. The back lighting is very bright and is blinding.Thanks.

Wow thank you Mukti- as a fellow sponge/ porous being this was very timely for me as the stillness is deepening and thickening , thank you both for such wonderful conversation ❤

An unexpected blessed gift this morning. A sacred exchange of wisdom, practical pointings wrapped in love.❤

This distinction, and the interweaving nature of the therapeutic and the spiritual is so important. It's the first time I hear this is explicitly mentioned and explored. As a therapist I (try to) navigate this on a daily basis with my clients. I am really happy with your exchange of views. Would love to explore further. Thank you both so much.

Beautiful conversation, thank you. Addressing those aspects of self that have been marginalized and welcoming them back home is key to awakening. Trying to step over or ignore what's already been dismissed or put in shadow simply adds further pain to those aspects of psyche that are often very young, even pre-verbal and pre-cognitive, parts. I started my conscious investigation into spirituality with The Power of Now and then discovered another well-known spritual teacher to whom I devoted 8 years. These 8 years brought many insights, shifts and recognitions/glimpses of my deeper nature, but at the same time I further pushed my ego into very painful places in order to do away with it completely. It got to a point that I was asked to leave the community and get some counselling. This started me on a more healthy path to slowly build my fragile ego, bring self-compassion and empathy to my personal self and realise that all of me is Divine, as are all parts of everyone. The body has to be included in awakening. We are in a body for a reason. And, the old emphasis on pure awareness at the cost of our humanity, as though it wasn't Divine, is extremely damaging and wrong-minded. Embodied Inclusion 🙏💞

I so love the elated energy you share! It bursts out. Thank you both. Really happy to see you again Adya.

Gold! This worked like a charm for me on something today and then I had the total freedom and space to inquire into it which was incredibly fruitful. I also added the step "spacious awareness is taking the shape of this feeling" which I could feel removed the subtle sense of the feeling as any kind of intrusion. Thank you for these tools!

As a nihilistic form of spirituality becomes prevalent on youtube I'm ever more grateful that Adya was my introduction to awakening...watching him do Q and A's taught me inquiry in such an intimate, alive way that serves me to this day. And Loch's tactile glimpse pointers are a great compliment to that to get somatically oriented to what has been awakened to. The arising of say an unexpected bit of anxiety can be "spiritually zapped" or it can be like the prize in the cracker jack box saying "look here!" Just today I used Loch's series of shifts to get space around something that was arising until it was no longer a bother and could have easily stopped there and went on with my day but I inquired into it and had an absolutely amazing journey with it from childhood to right now. Can't thank these guys enough for these incredible tools. 🙏🙏🙏

Hay Loch! Your meditation app is quite insightful. I have experience coding my own meditation app called Leshpngo. If you ever need some help with your glimpses app, I would gladly donate my free time to help your mindful mission!

Loch is the Nipsey Russell of spiritual teaching

Great video. At the end there's a discussion about how it feels in the body. I get similar feelings in my body watching this as I get watching ASMR videos. I wonder, Loch, if you're familiar with ASMR? Could there be some connection between ASMR and what's being shared in this video?

Can we say that the 'Self' in IFS is the same as 'Rigpa' in Buddhism?

Hi Loch Have you helped others 'manage' their AD(H)D? If so, what exactly is it that helps alleviate symptoms/internal chaos?

And yes, the felt sense of local awareness - the "sensation" itself of local attention, open that felt sense of sensing all the way out 360 degrees to the totality of perception. That takes me right there. :)

Yessss. Pause the momentum of mind/reactivity/contraction/suffering, re-connect with the felt sense of being/space/openness/totality, re-approach situation. In addition to the sublime freedom and functionality where there once was endless tail chasing, it can be absolutely stunning what is seen from there, the layers and layers of conditioning/associations/chain of events. Thank you for sharing every patient detail of this. It is received and incredibly helpful. 🥰

Thank you so much for this.

Thank you. I enjoyed this but it was mostly over my head and my experience. However I agreed and somewhat shared Sam’s experience with your guided mediation towards the end. That question “what is here when there is no problem to solve?” did something that I don’t know how to explain but was quite remarkable and felt sacred to me (for lack of better description.)

That was really effective, thank you 🙏🏻

Truly great! :) I'd love to have those slides...
