Lesson 1

An Introduction To The Integral Operating System

Learn the four keys that unlock human evolution. In Day 1, Ken and Dustin describe the emergence of Integral Theory and why it’s so vital to understand for your own transformation. They summarize the four keys: wake up, grow up, clean up and show up, and give you a few simple tips for how to get the most out of this 10-day course.

Lesson 2

The First Key: Waking Up

“Waking Up” relates to discovering your true nature. Your true nature is a universal awarenes; it’s ever-present, unbounded, non-dual, and deeply connected to everyone and everything. This awareness is at the heart of your very own self, and when realized, it serves as the foundation of living an awakened life. Day 2 is led by Ken.

Lesson 3

A Practice for Waking Up

Learn how a simple meditative practice, using the tool of impermanence, can start to shift your awareness. This meditation is designed to give you a taste of the power of becoming aware of the present moment. By the end of the session you’ll understand some of the aspects of your awareness that are constantly changing, as well as recognising that aspects of your awareness are always right here, and available to access. Day 3 is led by Dustin.

Lesson 4

The Second Key: Growing Up

“Growing up” relates to learning how to live from higher levels of complexity and care. As we grow up, we develop a consciousness capable of understanding and addressing our world’s most wicked challenges. Understanding the stages of growing up, provides a basic foundation for you to participate in the evolution of consciousness and culture. Day 4 is led by Ken.

Lesson 5

A Practice for Growing Up

In this practice, you will learn how to better understand the stages of growing up in your own life. Through a series of visualizations, you’ll come to know the difference between traditional consciousness, modern consciousness, postmodern consciousness, and integral consciousness. We will then explore, how these various levels of consciousness show up in everyday life. Day 5 is led by Dustin.

Lesson 6

The Third Key: Cleaning Up

“Cleaning up” involves a deep integration of our shadow self. As we come into deeper contact with ourselves, we learn that we all contain unresolved trauma and unfinished emotional business. Cleaning up, brings us into contact with the necessary process of healing and integration. In this session, you’ll learn about how 'shadow' is formed, and what you can do to start working on integrating it. Day 6 is led by Ken.

Lesson 7

A Practice for Cleaning Up

There are countless practices that can help you clean up. But arguably, none are as simple, or as powerful as the 3-2-1 process. In today’s session, you’ll learn how to use situations and people who trigger you, to help you discover your own shadow, and bring it back into your conscious experience. You’ll also learn how to reclaim projections and help move them from a 3 rd person (It) to a 2 nd person (You), to a 1 st person (I) or 3-2-1. Day 7 is led by Dustin.

Lesson 8

The Fourth Key: Showing Up

At some point on the spiritual path, it becomes obvious that we do the work of transformation and healing, not just for your own benefit, but so that we can “show up” in the world, for maximum impact. We show up through our behavior, through our impact on social systems, through our influence in culture, and through an ever-increasing intention to be of benefit in the world. Day 8 is led by Ken.

Lesson 9

A Practice for Showing Up

If we want maximum benefit in our practice and in the world, it can helpful to discover our own biases and blind spots. Today’s session explores how we can more fully show up in our own spiritual life, by including multiple perspectives. We’ll explore how our own relationship with the Divine can be viewed through multiple lenses: God as Self, God as relationship, and god as our web of interconnectedness, in a practice called the Three Faces of God. Day 9 is led by Dustin.

Lesson 10

Building an Integral Life Practice with Insight Timer

Learn how to build your own customized Integral Life Practice using the content on Insight Timer. By the end of the session, you’ll be equipped with the tools you need to maximize your own growth and development. We’ll introduce you to the basics of an Integral Life Practice, what makes it unique, and how you can supercharge your life, using the principle of integral cross-training. This final session is led by both Ken and Dustin.
