Shift into Freedom

The Science and Practice of Open-Hearted Awareness

De: Loch Kelly, Adyashanti - foreword

Narrado por: Loch Kelly

Teachings and meditations to "shift" into the freedom of awakening.

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 is an unabridged audiobook presentation of innovative teacher Loch Kelly's training manual for actively participating in the evolution of your own consciousness.

Synthesizing insights from neuroscience and psychology with wisdom from the world's contemplative traditions, Shift into Freedom offers an accessible and remarkably powerful series of meditations that lead us to a little-known natural capacity called "awake awareness". Through an unfolding process of "small glimpses, many times", these exercises shift us from a thought-based knowing to an awareness-based way of operating in the world.

With continued practice, we learn to "unhook" from our customary home in our ego-based identity - and then sustain an embodied presence and relatedness known as "open-hearted awareness". Loch Kelly teaches that this is "the meeting place of awakening and growing up, where we have the capacity to handle a fully emotional, intimate life and act with authenticity and compassion."

"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.

Finally, the book I’ve always been looking for.

Reading this book has been the most important experience of my life. I read it slowly and intentionally - reading a little every day when I was really able to concentrate, and then doing the corresponding glimpse practice. I truly feel my life’s history will now be referred to in terms of the time before I found this book, and the time after. From the very bottom of my being, thanks you Loch. -Leigh

❤️❤️❤️

The most thorough modern book on awakening I’ve ever come across. Grounded in modern psychology and science yet informed by ancient meditation traditions, Loch Kelly brings it all together. A beautiful, thoughtful, heart-centered approach to this natural process of waking-up (and out and in). I’ve listened to it twice and read it once. I’ve gotten so much out of it each time. A rich resource.

Integrating spiritual and psychological growth

A powerful map using meditation “glimpse” and understanding of contemporary psychology to journey to wholeness. I have read the book however the Audible version is particularly powerful for the guided meditations and the added plus of Loch’s narration. Recommending to all my fellow travelers.

Great audiobooks

This book was transformative and informative. A little confusing at times but things started to make sense the further I got in to it.

Profound. Direct. Life changing.

written in a contemporary and non denominational fashion. good for beginners or salty veterans of mindfulness, meditation, selfinquiry, etc. I also own the Kindle version.

Incredible. Profound and practical.

I found this book to be a simple, practical and profound teachings around awakening and reducing suffering. Some things clicked into place internally while reading and practicing that sort of change everything for the way better. Highly recommend. Thank you, Loch. Loving you all.

Awesome!

Awesome! A wonderful overview of the process of awakening. Plus how to experiment step by step. This book bridges a missing link in the contemporary pedagogy of awakening.

Very good non duality book

Very practical and very clear. I love it
I highly recommend it to my friends.

Great practice book on awakening

One of the most practical books on mindfulness and awareness practices. Loch takes wisdom and techniques from ancient traditions and presents them in a simple modern approach that anyone can understand. Awakening for everyone.

Take the chance to embody this book, merge mind and soul.

The book was a fantastic precursor before his workshop in Berkeley. It’s really great to practice this in a group with others. I highly recommend all therapists and counselors even caregivers to really take the time to dive into this practice and allow yourself to integrate this into your daily life.
