✨👉🏼 Ready to dive deeper into Effortless Mindfulness this season? Join our brand new Effortless Mindfulness Level One training!
This 6-week training program runs October 1st to November 5th.

Join Loch Kelly, the creator of the Mindful Glimpses app, here in his podcast episode as he welcomes Dr. Dan Siegel, a pioneering researcher and author in the field of interpersonal neurobiology.

In this episode, you'll learn:

✨ Dr. Dan Siegel (Wheel of Awareness) introduces the concept of mind as an "emergent self-organizing process" of energy and information flow within and between individuals, drawing from collaboration across 40 scientific disciplines.
✨ Distinguishing mind from brain, he emphasizes its inclusion of subjective experience and awareness, beyond neural activity.
✨ Gather tools, tips, and insights for how you can tune into your already awake mind, shift through the deeper levels of mind, and navigate your own consciousness with greater compassion, clarity, and loving flow.

1:10:03: The episode features Loch offering a guided practice called “Glimpsing Awareness.” These mindful glimpses serve as invaluable tools for experiencing ways to access the awake consciousness that is already here within all of us. This is a similar practice to the dan siegel wheel of awareness practice.

Wonderful Dialogue. So interesting for me to see a consilience between this and the ‘dwelling-mobility’ theory of well-being from a very different western phenomenological tradition.

What an incredible collaboration! Other than ongoing breakthroughs, updates and revisions; I don’t think there’s a lot missing between these two. Can I please suggest an interview with Thomas Metzinger next?

Very similar indeed. However science and language or math can't go beyond pure awareness to describe the level 4 and 5.
I have to thank loch again for the general experiential map.
