Knowledge Project Podcast Notes Key Takeaways Consciousness is understanding that you are “you are not your thoughts”.Two different types of flow systems:Absorbed Flow State: Being so interested in a task, you lose all concept of time and surroundings.Panoramic Flow State: Optimal functioning of complex tasks without thinking while being extremely connectedThe Ego's function is to manage your own internal operating system. It is built on thoughts, feelings, sensations, and views to form perspectiveWhile effortless mindfulness is learnable and teachable, the concepts still remain inexplicable. The best we can do is to look inward and create perspective around interconnectivity.Retraining your brain to think without a specific subject-object mindset is hard.Mindset shifts can happen because of how you identify, what you know, or what you perceiveBig ‘H' happiness which arises from unconditional love is more sustainable than small ‘h' happiness which arises from finding pleasure or satisfaction.

“A person can make himself happy or miserable regardless of what is actually happening outside just by changing the contents of consciousness” -Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi How you feel about life and living, and your happiness in general - ultimately depends on interpreting everyday experience. Your mind shapes every experience you have and there is a minimal return on happiness effort, trying to exert more control over external forces. Time should be spent on ordering your inner world. This podcast is about doing just that.  My guest is Loch Kelly. Loch is an author, meditation teacher, psychotherapist, and founder of the  Open-Hearted Awareness Institute. Loch has collaborated with neuroscientists at Yale, UPenn, and NYU to study how awareness training can enhance compassion and well-being.

Loch Kelly is a licensed psychotherapist and recognized leader in the field of meditation and awakening. He is the founder of the non-profit Open-Hearted Awareness Institute and the author of the award-winning book The Way of Effortless Mindfulness. We speak about the difference between deliberate and effortless mindfulness. Loch tells the story of being a hockey goalie with eyes in the neck. We speak about awake awareness, that is not thought based and how we often overlook it. We explore how we can discover another upgraded operative system that’s already installed. Loch gives a mindful glimpse of what’s here if there’s no problem to solve? The need to leave the witness protection program. That the practice is not about being free from feelings, but rather to be free to have them all. Loch ends our conversation by guiding a meditation where we shift from head to heart space.

"Effortless Mindfulness is letting go of present moments, thoughts, and attention to open to a naturally wise, compassionate awareness that is connected in the Now. " – Loch Kelly Loch Kelly, M.Div., LCSW, is an author, meditation teacher, licensed psychotherapist, and founder of Open-Hearted Awareness Institute, a nonprofit located in New York. Author of the best-selling and award-winning book The Way of Effortless Mindfulness, Loch is a recognized leader in the field of meditation, and offers tools for effortless mindfulness. He served on the New York Insight Teachers Council, studied extensively with Mingyur Rinpoche, and was invited to teach direct realization by Adyashanti, an American-born spiritual teacher who has been teaching for more than 20 years. “There is more to effortless mindfulness than meditation,” Loch says. “Effortless mindfulness is primarily an off-the-meditation-cushion way of weaving together contemplation and compassionate actions. Effortless mindfulness begins by opening to a natural spacious awareness in order to become more wise, embodied, and creative. A new ethical motivation springs from the realization of a loving interconnection with all of life." Effortless awareness has been described in the traditional literature as being so close it cannot be seen, so subtle it cannot be understood, and so good it cannot be believed. Loch describes effortless mindfulness as the discovery of an optimal mind, or an open mind, that’s already aware which we can then be aware from. “From this spacious and pervasive awareness, we discover that we’re aware not only of the ability to focus on our breath, but we feel almost as if we’re being breathed, as if our breath is connected to the outer world, the inner world, and we feel as if we’re in this flow or what’s been called ‘in the zone.’” Loch’s work is to help people access awakening as the next natural stage of human development. He has collaborated with neuroscientists at Yale, UPenn, and NYU in the study of how awareness training can enhance compassion and wellbeing. He offers in-person retreats, workshops, and online video and audio courses. Loch has authored three books, including Shift into Freedom: The Science and Practice of Open-Hearted Awareness (2015); Effortless Mindfulness Now: Awakening Our Natural Capacity for Focus, Freedom, and Joy (2017); and The Way of Effortless Mindfulness: A Revolutionary Guide for Living an Awakened Life (2019). His latest book offers a practical guide to experiencing the next stage in the ongoing mindfulness revolution: effortless mindfulness. With guided experiential practices, he writes about how to live with an open heart and peaceful mind and uncover the wise and loving awareness that is within and all around us. Loch graduated from Columbia University where he received a traveling fellowship to study forms of non-dual meditation in Sri Lanka, India and Nepal from 1981-1982, and has studied with teachers from around the world. As a meditation teacher, Loch teaches using an adult-education style based in the earliest non-dual wisdom traditions, modern science, and psychotherapy. Loch has worked in community mental health, established homeless shelters and counseled family members of 9/11. He spent 10 years establishing homeless shelters and community lunch programs while working in a community mental health clinic in Brooklyn, New York. He also served as Coordinator of Counseling and Interspiritual Chaplain at Union Theological Seminary and worked extensively with families recovering from the trauma of 9/11. Loch currently lives in New York City with his wife Paige and their cat Duffy. Join us in conversation with this gifted teacher!

Loch Kelly, spiritual teacher, author, and founder of Open-Hearted Awareness Institute, shares a radically different and simple approach to meditation- effortless mindfulness. Rooted in spacious awareness and connection to the heart, Loch offers glimpses into a state of being accessible to all and available in every moment. Students of meditation from beginners to long-time practitioners can tune in for a taste of something radically different and profoundly simple.

The Way of Effortless Mindfulness In this interview, I chat with Lock Kelly about his new book The Way of Effortless Mindfulness. To begin Lock highlights that difference between deliberate mindfulness, that in which most of us are likely familiar with, and effortless mindfulness. He describes "effortless mindfulness," an advanced yet simple form of mindfulness that can liberate the deepest levels of suffering. Although limited by time Lock guides us on how this path to effortless mindfulness is best achieved. I found it a little hard to navigate however upon listening to the conversation for a second time I can connect the dots. I suppose to gain a really thorough understanding it would be best to read his book. For what it's worth, please enjoy this conversation with Lock Kelly.
