In This Interview, Ryan Oelke and I discuss Awakening in Life and…

  • Practicing Radical Curiosity
  • Coming home to yourself as you are in this moment
  • Being radically open to what is happening to fully see it
  • How nothing collapses consciousness faster than judgment
  • How being curious implies being engaged with the subject matter
  • Awakening in Life
  • Life as the opportunity to awaken
  • Ways to integrate spiritual principles into the moments of our life
  • Cultivating capacity through formal practice
  • How to use the little moments that might otherwise be “thrown away” during the day
  • That focusing on embodying our experience enables it to become more deeply our own
  • How awakening in life is a responsive, integral path
  • A prescriptive path/model vs. a responsive path/model
  • Having a deep trust in your own experience 
  • Metta Dharma
  • That the entire point of waking up in life could be to have an appropriate response.
