S3E10 - Armoring 01/26/2024

S3E10 - Armoring Welcome back! This week's episode is on Armoring, and Lance sees it as literally as important as explaining the concept of temperature. Sometimes we're more comfortable or less comfortable, and it's related to our difficulty in allowing the truth of something. Everything is exactly as it should be - a wonderful, magnificent joke/creation/farce that is simultaneously deeply sacred, poignant, and meaningful. But we are armored against that experience in seemingly countless ways. Thanks for listening, please send any comments or questions to [email protected] /episode/index/show/dimensionapproach/id/29603353

S3E6 - Libidinality and Evil 08/04/2023

S3E6 - Libidinality and Evil First in a multi-part series that gradually unfolds as a beautiful description of what brings each of us from origin to the present moment. What each of us is working against, unknowingly, is a culture that has put the conceptual mind on a pedestal, re-enforcing entanglement with the ego. But there are so many layers and energies operating from above and from below the conceptual mind; it's such a tiny sliver of our being. We experience intense anxiety trying to govern that multitude with just the conceptual mind. Video of this conversation is available at /episode/index/show/dimensionapproach/id/27653634

S3E5 - Parenting ourselves, parenting each other 06/30/2023

S3E5 - Parenting ourselves, parenting each other We all have patterns of orientation, anchoring, and identifying in relationship to different energy centers. We have state experiences related to each, and we have a level of consciousness at each. There are so many different combinations that can lead to very good or mediocre karaoke performances (context in the episode). Everything seems to be on its own trajectory for development and growth, and it's hard to impossible for the ego to remember that in so many different contexts. Thank goodness we have consciousness to shepherd and parent us through. Please send any questions to . Thank you! /episode/index/show/dimensionapproach/id/27329052

S3E4 - Experiencing new dimensions 05/12/2023

S3E4 - Experiencing new dimensions Welcome back to the Dimension Approach! In this episode Lance dives into a topic he's sometimes hesitant to discuss - his experience of higher dimensions that inform his practice. There are some relatable principles than can help differentiate between dimensions conceptually and experientially. If you have any questions or comments, please reach out at [email protected] /episode/index/show/dimensionapproach/id/26816808

S3E3 - Reflections and Connections 01/06/2023

S3E3 - Reflections and Connections Happy New Year, and welcome back to the Dimension Approach! This week's episode focuses on what it's like to actually access a dimension and what we can begin to notice in that process. We are unconsciously dependent on the reflections of our projections and the connections we do and do not make to the dimensions within ourselves. What are we blocking out? What are we attaching to? What are we relating with? Can we relate to ourselves and other via our conscious mind, and how do we begin to integrate what we experience? Thank you for listening! Please send any questions to [email protected] /episode/index/show/dimensionapproach/id/25525665

S3E2-Does the ego wake up? 12/16/2022

S3E2-Does the ego wake up? Welcome back! This week's episode is an in-depth look at our many self-imposed obstacles to waking up. What do we bring with us from the past? What do we not acknowledge about the present? What do we expect of ourselves that we don't expect from others, and vice versa? It's all more complicated than any of us seem to be able to acknowledge, and maybe (definitely) we should take it easier on ourselves.

S3E1 - Receptivity vs Presence 12/01/2022

S2E36 - Empathy Welcome back to the Dimension Approach! This week's conversation is a dive into the nature of empathy - the different means by which we can empathize with ourselves and others.

S2E30 - Monads, Dyads, and Trauma 10/01/2021

S2E30 - Monads, Dyads, and Trauma Apologies for the delay, we've had some technical issues this week! We continue discussing the dynamics of monads, dyads, and triads in relation to trauma.

Please send any questions or comments to [email protected] /episode/index/show/dimensionapproach/id/20674433

S2E29 - Monads, Dyads, and Triads 09/24/2021

Please send any questions or comments to [email protected]. /episode/index/show/dimensionapproach/id/20586095

S2E28 - Sweet Personality 09/10/2021

S2E28 - Sweet Personality Thanks for listening! This week's episode is about personality, ego, and character structure.

Please send any questions or comments to [email protected]. /episode/index/show/dimensionapproach/id/20425109

S2E27 - Child and Dragon Conclusion (Love wins) 07/23/2021

S2E27 - Child and Dragon Conclusion (Love wins) Spoilers in the title. We wrap our discussion on the child and dragon analogy. Lance goes into detail on the balance between love and hate in the psyche and the fear we have that love doesn't win, that the hate, the darkness, the evil will win in the end. Lance shares a deeply personal experience of grace in his life that revealed some truth about that struggle. Thank you for listening! Send any questions or comments to [email protected] /episode/index/show/dimensionapproach/id/19890842

S2E26 - Child and Dragon, Part 2 07/16/2021

S2E26 - Child and Dragon, Part 2 Fun thoughts from this episode: When we orient to a duality, we're using our ego mind. Just because the light is turned on doesn't mean the darkness has gone away. Also, with our first in-person podcast we did our first in-person experiential exercise around consciousness and ego. /episode/index/show/dimensionapproach/id/19836860

S2E25 - Child and Dragon, Part 1 07/09/2021

S2E25 - Child and Dragon, Part 1 For our first in-person podcast ever, we dive into one of Lance's favorite metaphors - the child and the dragon. This one has been especially helpful to Geoff in his own journey and we'll get into that in future episodes. Part 1, though, will lay out how the child and the dragon exemplify two sides of a dialectic within ourselves that we may consciously or unconsciously inhabit depending on the content and context we find ourselves in. Please send any questions to [email protected]. /episode/index/show/dimensionapproach/id/19751096

S2E24 - Foundational Assumptions, Part 2 07/02/2021

S2E24 - Foundational Assumptions, Part 2 As we dive deeper into the foundational assumptions of the Dimension Approach, Lance sheds some light on his understanding of consciousness. Consciousness, just like sunlight, has these powers. It doesn't just light our way; it effects the very thing it's looking at. Thank you for listening! If you have any questions or comments, please contact us at [email protected]. /episode/index/show/dimensionapproach/id/19645550

S2E23 - Foundational Assumptions, Part 1 06/25/2021

S2E23 - Foundational Assumptions, Part 1 Throughout our time working on the podcast, Lance has been working to create written descriptions of the approach for the website. That ongoing work has been part of the conversations this season, and this week's episode focuses on some foundational assumptions about consciousness. They're not specific to the Dimension Approach, but they are essential to understanding it.

S2E22 - Love, Hate, and Ideal Blueprint 06/18/2021

S2E22 - Love, Hate, and Ideal Blueprint This episode is a conversation that's a bit wide-ranging; we discuss dialectics, specifically love and hate.

S2E19 - The 0 Chakra, Part 1 05/28/2021

S2E19 - The 0 Chakra, Part 1 Wait, wait, we forgot one! It turns out chakras are more like integers than whole numbers, and there's a 0 chakra. Geoff gives Lance a hard time for leaving it out as it turns out it's pretty important to development. Thanks for listening! If you have any questions or comments, please contact us at [email protected]. /episode/index/show/dimensionapproach/id/19238537

S218 - Psychotherapy in Practice, Part 2 05/21/2021

S218 - Psychotherapy in Practice, Part 2 The discussion of psychotherapy in the Dimension Approach continues, and we touch on some classic themes like anxiety and reprogramming vs deprogramming.
