Calling all IFS and parts work practitioners and meditation enthusiasts looking for a mindfulness approach to deepen their personal work and their work with clients. This immersive online experience is designed for people who are passionate about both IFS and Effortless Mindfulness and want to fuse these two practices.
Learn how to access your awake mind and authentic Self to heal your wounded parts with EM+IFS.
True healing begins with access to Self. But many of us have a hard time accessing Self. Can you relate?
- Have you tasted the freedom of Self but feel frustrated by your inability to stay rooted there?
- Do you feel you need to go to a quiet place apart to unblend and return to Self but want a way to shift immediately into Self-Leadership?
- Are you interested in healing and unburdening your protective parts ?
- Do you get triggered during the day and want tools to help you recover faster?
- Do you have a general sense of authentic Self but find it hard to embody and act from there without losing it
- Do you feel you might be spiritually bypassing (and want a way to discern if Self-like parts are taking over)?
- Do you have clients who have a hard time accessing Self (but you don’t fully have the tools to help them gain access)?
- Do you (or your clients) continually get blended with judgmental and shame-based parts? Maybe you want a way to unblend with more confidence and clarity.
- Do you have experience with EM+IFS (you’ve completed our past programs and/or are working 1.1 with a trained practitioner), but you’re looking for a more immersive and experiential deep dive into EM+IFS?
Connecting with Self
In this online self-paced workshop, you’ll learn a unique approach to healing, growth, and awakening through a unique form of nondual Internal Family Systems or EM+IFS.
If you meditate then you’ve likely experienced the feeling of freedom from the small self or contracted ego. If you’ve experienced parts work before or worked with an IFS therapist, you’ve already tasted the promise of the IFS model.
Effortless Mindfulness provides you with an essential missing link:
>> How to consistently and confidently connect with your authentic Self or Awake Mind.
Through this training and practice, you’ll learn how to confidently connect with Self and the different parts of your mind. Throughout this pre-recorded video course, Loch guides you, step-by-step, through a powerful protocol that you can practice on your own.
This series of experiential steps is designed to lead you from your Ego Manager into the calm, clear, compassionate heart of Self-Leadership.
Indeed, in EM+IFS, we start with the solution—Self—before working with parts. Why? Because we can’t heal our parts from our parts. We can only heal parts from Self.
Healing Your Parts
In this virtual training, you’ll discover how to bring the natural healing qualities of Self to your troubling inner voices, compulsive distractions, and feelings of vulnerability, inadequacy, and overwhelm.
We can unburden these parts of the psyche when we approach them from the Self, with its natural respect, patience, and boundless compassion. Self loves and offers protection to all parts of us.
And this is a key difference of EM+IFS. Everything starts with the effortless shift into Self.
A Note from Loch Kelly
Have you longed and strived to access your authentic Self, but find that it still feels elusive?
This is more common than you might imagine. Most people struggle to experience Self—not because they lack desire or commitment but because they don’t know where to look or what to look with. Hoping that Self organically arises isn’t always available to all of us. So, what do we do then?
One reason we can’t find, see, or understand Self is because Self is not an “it.” Self is not an object or thing that can be seen, heard, touched, smelled, tasted, or known by thought. It isn’t an emotion, image, belief, thought, sensation, or even energy.
I like to say that trying to know Self with thought is like trying to use our eyes to hear music.
But you CAN know Self. Just not in the way you might think :).
You see, IFS is a revolutionary approach to psychology. And it’s amazing when it comes to the subtle and cathartic world of parts work. It has an elegant and detailed map of parts but not such a clear way to access and experience your ever-present Self.
And as you know, Self is an essential ingredient when doing effective parts work and cultivating a harmonious inner system.
That’s where Effortless Mindfulness (EM) comes in.
In the same way that IFS helps you access parts, EM gives you the tools to effortlessly shift into Self.
How is this possible? In this self-paced workshop, I not only show you. I teach you how to do it yourself.
In the end, we can simply say that Self is the subtlest essential foundation of our human consciousness, which we all share, regardless of beliefs. And it is learnable, teachable and liveable!
So I hope you’ll join me for this deep dive into awakening, healing, and the next potential stage of human growth.
With a grateful,
Loch
“Loch offers his contemporary ways to ‘glimpse’ our awake nature immediately and heal our wounded parts. When Loch and I have taught together, I have found, for myself and students, that Loch’s practices are amazingly effective.”

Navigating the 6 Locations of Self
In this self-paced training, you’ll learn how to navigate through the Six Locations of Self.
Richard Schwartz speaks about Self in many different ways and uses the concepts of Self Energy and Self Leadership. Loch adds Self Essence and Self Embodiment to the mix in describing the journey from ego manager to Self Leadership and when talking about the different markers of Self in IFS.
The 11 i's of Self Essence
Self Essence (Awake Mind) is the way we experience Self with awake awareness or pure Self. This is the authentic fundamental nature of who we are.
The 9 S's of Self Embodiment
Self Embodiment (Unity Mind) is also called Same Taste, Being, and Inter-Being. It’s the experience of the union of formless awareness and embodiment.
This Training Is for You If
- You’re a coach, therapist, or healing professional who wants to embody Self-leadership for yourself and model it for your clients.
- You’re a new, intermediate, or advanced meditator who wants to better understand parts work and IFS and integrate it into your practice.
- You have some basic understanding of EM and/or IFS and want to know how to live from here.
- You know a little bit about IFS and Effortless Mindfulness, but want to deepen your capacity to work with your protector and manager parts from Self.
- You’ve come up against the limits of the IFS model and want to learn how to consistently and confidently access Self and manifest Self Leadership.
What this Training Is and Isn’t
In this immersive self-paced course, we’re going to learn the territory. And just as Dick Schwartz has elegantly mapped out parts, Loch will teach you how to know and clearly distinguish Self in your own experience.
In this training, we’re going to:
- Work with your protectors and managers.
- Shift out of managers to Self and be aware of whatever parts arise.
- Create a safe space so all your scared or wounded parts can relax and heal.
- Lightly touch on how to work with others but primarily this training will help you better learn your own inner territory and navigate your own consciousness.
In this training, we’re not going to:
- Work to unburden exiles or do any deep early childhood therapeutic work.
In my many years knowing and working with Loch Kelly, I feel that he is one of the clearest expressions of authentic awakened freedom and love that I know. -Adyashanti
