We will learn: How our sense of self changes throughout human development. What causes a mismatch between your inner sense of identity and your inner sense of belonging. How to use the Wheel of Awareness practice to open yourself to access the wisdom of connection and systems intelligence in your life. Ask yourself something… Who are you? As we age, we start to understand ourselves in different ways. Actually, in really different ways depending on if we’re still in childhood, adolescence, or adulthood… all shaped by our connection to the world around us. And it all happens without us even perceiving much of a change.But is this natural evolution of self the best thing for us or even true? Or are we just concretizing an illusion of separateness and getting further from the oneness that was meant for us?That’s what we’re talking about today.Our guest is Dr. Dan Siegel.

Exercises to allow you to experience headlessness for yourself. This episode is going to blow your mind.

But, with enough mindfulness, it's possible to experience just the raw data.And that’s what allows us to be fully in the present moment, which is where we need to be to experience the oneness that all spiritual seekers are aiming for.So today we’re going to learn about The Headless Way to experience awakening.Our guest is Richard Lang.
