In the Mayan calendar, one of my signs is the Blue Monkey. The energy of play, magic, humor, curiosity, and wonder. The invitation to experience life as a playing field as well. To experiment, to create, and to discover, from a place of joy, what wants to emerge.

I am experiencing more and more how much power lies in that, because life force needs movement.

I love it..
Pleasure.
Expression.
Humor.
A little bit of mischief.
The freedom to fully commit yourself.

Today I spoke to a lady who previously followed a program with me. And she gave me feedback that aligns perfectly with this. She specifically mentioned the combination of depth, safety, wisdom, humor, and lightheartedness as characteristic of my guidance. And that this helped her so much.

That touched me, because in recent years my attention has been strongly focused on the mysteries, transformation, energy, healing, and the deeper layers of existence. That world belongs entirely to me.

And at the same time, that guy in this photo belongs to it too. \ud83d\ude02<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The man who pulls funny faces.
Who likes to play.
Who does crazy little dances for his wife.
He enjoys the menagerie here on the mountain.
He can laugh in the middle of a deep process.
Who seeks adventure.
He is enjoying himself.
Who brings together the sacred and the human.<\/p>

That very combination feels to me increasingly like what I am now releasing under the ALIVE brand.
For me, ALIVE is about coming home to your own life energy.<\/p>

It is about feeling what makes your eyes light up.
What wakes up your body.
Where desire arises.
Where creativity begins to flow.
Where you feel freer to fully come out.<\/p>

And magnetism arises there as well.<\/p>

When you become filled with your own life energy, something palpable, something magical arises. Another presence emerges. A youthful glimmer. An attraction that stems from truly being present in your own life.<\/p>

Life becomes more magical as soon as you dare to play with it, says the blue monkey in me.<\/p>

Are you also ready to let that magic in?\"\ud83d\ude4a\"<\/p>

Brian<\/p>
