Loch shows us how to practice a unique form of mindfulness. These Effortless Mindfulness practices are directly in line with the beneficial qualities of effortless awareness that my neuroscience lab has studied. I wholeheartedly recommend these practices to my students and to you.

…no matter how much you’re able to calm down and improve your attention?
That’s because attention is a narrow form of awareness that has limited capacity no matter how smart, energetic, or determined you are.
So we’ve integrated the most potent models of contemporary psychology, neuroscience, and ancient wisdom practice to create a powerful new solution.
It’s called Effortless Focus & Flow, and it will completely change your life.
The problem we face is unprecedented. It’s all around us all. How we manage and optimize our awareness is not just essential to our basic well being and flourishing, it’s a cornerstone of our mental health. And right now, it’s getting hijacked.
Did you know:
It’s not just the modern workplace that hijacks your attention, it’s happening at home, in the family zone, and it continuously erodes your well being, confidence, resilience, and your very sense of self.
Your awareness is how you access your most inspired and creative self. So, let’s make sure to protect it.
Many of us have heard that it takes years of discipline and effort to tame the mind. Loch Kelly offers his contemporary ways to ‘glimpse’ our awake nature immediately and heal our wounded parts. I have found, for myself and students, that Loch’s practices are amazingly effective. Effortless Mindfulness brilliantly weaves together meditation, neuroscience, and psychotherapy.

Discovering Effortless Focus in My Own Life
Looking back, I can see that I had glimpses of Effortless Focus & Flow long before I had words for it. My first clear experience came during my time as an ice hockey goalie in high school and college. In the middle of a fast-paced game, I discovered that I could open my awareness, relax my mind, and drop into my body. From this place, everything became crystal clear and naturally responsive—I could sense the movement of every player, the sound of blades cutting across the ice, and the shifting energy of the game as a whole. Time slowed down, my mind was completely still yet highly engaged, and I made saves that I couldn’t logically explain.
Later, a senior on my hockey team gave me the book Zen and the Art of Archery, and I realized that this wasn’t just a sports phenomenon—it was a trainable way of being aware and a form of meditation in action.
Learning Effortless Mindfulness in Nepal
I was fortunate in graduate school to study healing and meditation in Sri Lanka, India, and Nepal. I started with conventional mindfulness, doing long Insight meditation retreats in Sri Lanka. Then I went to India where I met the Dalai Lama who had just come back from France where he had taught about Dzogchen, which is a direct way of accessing optimal consciousness. I was moved by his enthusiasm and description and asked him, “Who should I go study Dzogchen with?” He said Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche in Nepal.
I changed my plans and went immediately. The first afternoon he said there are two kinds of mindfulness, deliberate and effortless. He then gave us a short example of this. Within ten minutes I felt the same way I had felt at the end of a 10 day meditation retreat, except my eyes were open and I felt joyful, clear, and energized.
From 9 Years to 9 Months
My first book, Shift Into Freedom, took me nine years to complete. It often felt like an uphill battle, requiring intense effort and self-discipline. I had some dyslexia and ADHD since childhood.
By the time I wrote my second book, The Way of Effortless Mindfulness, I deliberately used the principles of Effortless Focus, shifting into awake awareness to do the work instead of forcing my attention. This time, I finished the entire book in nine months—a process that felt fluid, creative, and deeply enjoyable.
Besting Brain Fog and Long Covid with Effortless Focus
Effortless Focus has also been a life-changing resource during difficult times. After I developed Long Covid, I struggled with severe brain fog. Sometimes, I couldn’t organize my thoughts or remember what I was about to say. But when I had to teach an online event, I discovered something incredible. If I tried to think my way through it, I couldn’t. But if I shifted into Awake Awareness and simply let the words arise naturally, everything flowed effortlessly. My mind reorganized itself, and I could access information without strain.
This experience solidified my understanding that our greatest intelligence is already available beyond the thinking mind—it just needs space to emerge. I also noticed during this time of shelter in place with my wife Paige, that these skills allowed me to see the parts of me that would arise as activated and be with them and Paige. As a result, we emotionally grew closer and more in love.
Our trainings are based on cutting edge research in psychology, neuroscience, and ancient wisdom traditions performed by some of the world’s leading academic institutions.
Loch was a subject in this research study. Through the practice of Effortless Awareness, subjects were able to intentionally reduce mind wandering (the monkey mind) on demand.
Since practicing the exercises I have noticed a huge qualitative difference in my interactions with people at the hospital where I work, and I share some of the exercises with interested clients and staff. I have more energy and ability to stay focused. There is a sense of greater intimacy with experience and at the same time greater spaciousness surrounding experience. Very highly recommended.– Colleen L., M.D.

The original research on Flow talked about only one kind of Flow. In Effortless Focus & Flow, you’ll learn how to access and work with three varieties of flow: Absorbed Flow, Panoramic Flow, and Awake Loving Flow. Renowned Flow Researcher Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi referred to ecstasy and bliss as qualities and markers of Flow. Instead, we use the term awake loving flow.

Effortless Focus & Flow is a subtle shift from an old concentration exertion model to a new effortless awareness model.
Conventional Mindfulness relies on harnessing attention and creating very specific conditions.
In contrast, Effortless Focus & Flow is awareness-based (not attention) and allows you to instantly access an already present and boundless source of energy, creativity, clarity, and confidence.
With Effortless Focus & Flow, you don’t need to modify your behavior. You can make this subtle shift into Effortless Focus & Flow on the subway, walking down the street, or before a big presentation. You’ll learn how to instantly shift from anxiety to effortless focus and excitement.

No. Loch Kelly does lead advanced retreats but here he will introduce you to all the key concepts and relevant practices. The beauty of Effortless Focus & Flow is that you don’t need to be a meditation or concentration expert to open the doorway to Effortless Focus & Flow. The awareness you’re learning to access is already present in your own experience. It’s just a matter of learning where (and how) to find it.
Imagine completing your work tasks in half the time and completely enjoying the process. Remember what it felt like the last time you lost track of time because you were so immersed in an activity. Think about a moment when you surprised yourself with a kind of intelligence, clarity, and creativity that you didn’t know was possible. Now combine those moments together in the context of your professional work and that’s the kind of success you can begin to anticipate through Effortless Focus & Flow.
