How to jump to paragraphs with an outline level regardless of style in Word VBA?

This question asks about moving between headers in Word VBA, and Doc Brown kindly pointed out Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToHeading. When I use 

ActiveWindow.Selection.GoTo wdGoToHeading, wdGoToNext

or

ActiveWindow.Selection.GoTo wdGoToHeading, wdGoToPrevious

the selection moves between Heading <n> styles, but does not jump to custom styles I have created that have Outline levels of Level 1, 2, ... (not Body Text). Other than repeatedly calling Next wdParagraph and testing for Range.OutlineLevel < wdOutlineLevelBodyText, is there any way to jump between paragraphs based on outline level?

You could do this by using Outline View to only show the Outline Levels that you're interested in, then navigate between the visible paragraphs:

ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.Type = wdOutlineView
ActiveWindow.View.ShowHeading 3
Selection.MoveDown Unit:=wdParagraph
