Ken Wilber – Full Spectrum Mindfulness

Full Spectrum Mindfulness is a groundbreaking new web course that combines Western approaches to Growing Up with Eastern methods of Waking Up, taught by one of the world’s greatest living philosophers of the mind, Ken Wilber.

Full Spectrum Mindfulness combines hard-hitting mindfulness practice with leading-edge discoveries in neuroscience and developmental psychology, giving you what you need to dramatically deepen your awareness and skill by awakening the eight major levels of evolution alive in you right now.

Course Overview

Through this course you will learn how to take a “full spectrum scan” of your total being, shining a light into some of the hardest-to-reach corners of your psyche. It will help you locate and upgrade outdated coping strategies, discover and heal trouble spots in your system, and tap into the power of mindfulness at eight levels of your life, mindset, patterns, and behavior.

What makes Full Spectrum Mindfulness different from the rest?

Simple. It gets beneath the surface.

Most other approaches to mindfulness allow you to become more conscious of whatever is happening in the moment, helping you bring more awareness to your thoughts, emotions, and surrounding environment as they arise in your consciousness. There are dozens of truly amazing mindfulness techniques out there that truly excel at this, any one of which can become an important part of your own Integral Life Practice.

However, while these traditional techniques do an excellent job of helping you become more mindful of the surface features of your moment-to-moment experience, they have a much more difficult time getting to the deep features of your consciousness — those aspects of your psyche that cannot easily be seen through contemplation or introspection alone, yet exert an enormous influence upon your perceptions, your reactions, and the way you make sense of the world.

These are the invisible structures through which you filter all of your experiences. Studied, tested, and verified across all known cultures by some of the world’s greatest psychologists, these deep structures give shape to your thoughts, add color to your emotions, and bring coherence to your identity.

Eight Powerful Mindfulness Techniques in One Elegant Teaching:

  The base of the pyramid, survival mindfulness is a critical component of managing your health, enhancing your vitality, and breaking free of the stranglehold that food holds over your life.
• Sex
  Sexual mindfulness is the root of maintaining erotic polarity, being present with your lover and maintaining a lifetime of deep sexual connection.
• Power
  Own it, wield it wisely, and learn to navigate it, because power mindfulness is a foundation of setting boundaries and knowing where you stand in this world.
• Love
  Love mindfulness supercharges your deepest relationships and connections with the most important people in your life in the deepest way possible, aligning your heart with something much greater than yourself.
• Achievement
  Achievement mindfulness aids your ability to author your own life and future, helping you learn to channel your power and focus on delivering the real-world results that move the needle in your life.
• Harmony
  Harmony mindfulness grounds a deep sensitivity to the most pressing moral issues of a world in pain with the presence and love to act as a healing force wherever you go.
• Wholeness
  In a world of seemingly-irresolvable tensions, competing mindsets, and differing worldviews, wholeness mindfulness gives you the capability to gauge and respond to every situation with wisdom, presence, and skillful clarity.

  Modern science has shown how your happiness, deep flow states, and even your life purpose are tied to awakening to and serving something bigger than yourself, which is what unity mindfulness—one of the pinnacle forms of mindfulness—is all about.

Also includes exclusive Full Body Mindfulness practices:

• Hunger Mindfulness
  Changing your relationship to your food drives is the foundation of your health. Get control of the hunger drives, food addictions, and emotional eating that create chronic problems with weight and dissatisfaction with your diet.
• Thirst Mindfulness
  Your body is 95% water, and the quality of your hydration contributes to the total health of your body. Move beyond your addiction to additives like caffeine, sugar, alcohol or toxins and give your body the awareness and fuel it needs to thrive.
• Strength Mindfulness
  Strength, agility and energy are the foundation of an active, movement-centered life. Not only does cross-training body practices accelerate your mindfulness, it also helps you to develop a new appreciation for the incredible beauty and strength of your own body.
• Pleasure/Pain Mindfulness
  Pain and pleasure drive much of our behavior, especially around food, exercise, and our daily activities. Full body mindfulness entails moving beyond a confining and narrow “comfort zone” and becoming fully aware of how much your thinking, decisions and behavior are driven by the pleasure you’re seeking or the pain you’re trying to avoid.
