About this episode
In this episode, Dr. Sogge leads participants through awareness practices inspired by effortless mindfulness, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and compassion-focused therapy (CFT) to build a peaceful relationship with therapists' inner parts. Dr Sogge invites participants to discover the transformative potential and psychedelic nature of their own awareness, and shows them how to relate to therapist parts from compassion, love, and spacious awareness rather than thought. The intention for this workshop is to help CBT therapists deepen their own Self as context by learning to relate to therapists parts from the limitless qualities of awareness rather than from a limited therapist part identity. 00:00 Introduction 01:14 Acknowledging the Land and Gratitude for Land and Water Keepers of Banff, Alberta, Canada where the 2025 Canadian Association for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Annual Conference occurred. 02:33 Exploring the Psychedelic Nature of Awareness as the Foundation for Compassionate Relating to Parts 04:30 Outline of the Session 07:03 Om Sweet Home Awareness Practice 12:47 Understanding the Process nature of Self and the Multiplicity of the Mind 25:49 Identifying and Understanding Therapist Parts 32:33 Social Mentalities in CFT and ACT Hexaflex Processes 33:27 Compassionate Awareness and Self as Context in Therapy 36:08 Exploring Natural Awareness and Buddhist concept of Rigpa 39:29 Practicing Effortless Mindfulness and Knowing Beyond Thought in Therapy 57:49 Being Loving Kindness and Compassion as Open-Hearted Awareness for Therapists 01:05:48 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Dr Kimberly Sogge https://drsogge.com/ Canadian Association of Cognitive and Behavioual Therapies https://www.cacbt.ca/ Association for Contextual Behavioural Science https://contextualscience.org/ Compassionate Mind Foundation https://contextualscience.org/ Effortless Mindfulness https://lochkelly.org/
