🇬🇧🇺🇸 I invite you to my monthly open Zoom meeting: "Ask My Self" 🪷 free of charge and without obligation 💫
Henri Bergson and Einstein agreed: Our true Self exists beyond time and duality. In this monthly Zoom, you’ll learn how to apply this wisdom through a 1,200-year-old Taoist method – for leadership, clarity, and effortless flow: For passionate change-makers 40+

Transcending Time and Duality:
A Leader’s Path to Their True Self
“If we could connect directly with things—and with ourselves—we would all be artists. For our soul would then live in constant harmony with nature.”
– Henri Bergson (Nobel Laureate & Philosopher)
My "enlightened" everyday life, explained by Dan Brown – excerpt from "The Secret of Secrets" 👌🧠📡🙏

Do you ever feel torn between two worlds? The “external” one—driven by goals, deadlines, and the pursuit of "more"—and an “inner” one, where you sense:
There must be another way?
Henri Bergson called this “the space beyond time and duality”. Einstein named it life’s "miracle." Viktor Frankl described it as “the gap between stimulus and response”, where true freedom unfolds.

But how do we access this space? Answer:
“The Secret of the Golden Flower”
As a coach, I guide people using a 1,200-year-old Taoist method (“The Secret of the Golden Flower”). It bridges the operational "Hansjörg" (the mind) and the immortal "Hans" (the Self)—the part of us that “doesn’t struggle but knows”:
“Don't breathe to live. Live so that you can finally breathe.”

In this open monthly Zoom session, I also teach basic exercises based on this 1200-year-old Taoist method „The Secret of the Golden Flower“:
With the help of the Golden Flower method, the inner circulation of light, your "body-mind" will find its way back to its natural harmony – without you having to intervene. 🪷💫
It is like drinking from a river that contains exactly the minerals you need. The light cycle is like a gentle river that carries everyone who lets themselves drift back to the sea of Tao. Practising the exercises I teach every day releases stress patterns in your nervous system and detoxifies you on all levels – physically (toxins), emotionally (fears) and mentally (brooding).
You ask, "How much time do I have to spend on this?
Not much time, i.e. a maximum of 5-15 minutes, but EVERY DAY for the first 3 months! 🪷💫
In the first month, a special breathing technique for five minutes in the morning while sitting or lying down; in the second month, an extended breathing technique for 10 minutes in the evening while lying down; and in the third month, the final breathing technique for 15 minutes during the day at any time and in any position. After 3 months of DAILY (!) practice, you will feel an incredible energetic change in your body and be largely free of disturbing thoughts in your mind. You will then learn how to...
...maintain the living manner of the circulation of light 🪷💃💫
...as a background state in your everyday life and how to pass on this divine method to your colleagues and other people if you wish (= my wish).
= The inner state of the 'Golden Flower' 🪷💫
What to expect:
- “Visual clarity” for decisions (like Einstein’s thought experiments).
- “Non-duality in action”: Where opposites (success/failure, time/timelessness) dissolve.
- Steve Jobs was right: “Your heart already knows where to go. The dots connect in hindsight.”
I invite you to my monthly open Zoom meeting:
"Ask My Self"
🪷 free of charge and without obligation 💫
EVERY 1st Wednesday of the month, 2:00-4.00 PM CET (UTC+1). Via Zoom. Language: English. Zoom Link [here], no password required. 🪷💫
Includes a break from 2:45 to 3:15 PM for self-practice, self-reflection, and formulating questions about yourself, which I will answer between 3:15 and 4.00 PM using spontaneous inner images (= my visual gift that has been guiding me since I was 11 years old).
Please note: Due to special circumstances, this monthly offer will only be available again from November onwards – individual appointments are available at any time upon request. Thank you very much. 🙏
A space to:
- Awaken your “inner sight”—the visual intelligence that guides complex choices.
- Sync your “two worlds”—aligning the operational self with the deeper Self.
- Tap into prana energy—for clarity, ease, and even physical revitalisation and rejuvenation (yes, it’s real):

⬆️ The result of "Inner Alchemy", intuitive resonance & alignment with the quantum field 💮💫: Me – on the left, aged 49, in my darkest hour in 2015, and on the right, today, aged 59. The 1200 year old breathing technique of the Golden Flower ⬇️, which is gradually becoming your new way of breathing in everyday life, mainly leads to this rejuvenation. Why? It is the natural flow of the breath of your immortal soul. 😇

PS: Skeptical❓
Einstein started with a thought experiment too. Sometimes, one question changes everything:
“How would my Self—beyond time and fear—act now?”
Bergson’s Veil & The Golden Flower
The Challenge of True Perception:
Henri Bergson reveals a profound paradox: our senses and cognition, shaped by survival needs, filter reality into utilitarian labels. We see not the world itself, but a simplified map of “useful” impressions—a veil woven by language and social convention. This pragmatic vision serves action but blinds us to the vibrant individuality of life. Artists and poets occasionally pierce this veil, perceiving raw reality through color, rhythm, or form. Yet even they glimpse only fragments.
The Golden Flower as Alchemical Lens:
Here, the ancient practice of the Golden Flower offers a bridge. By circulating light between “realism” (the body’s grounded perception) and “idealism” (the soul’s unfiltered vision), it dissolves Bergson’s veil. The method trains us to:
- See anew: Like an artist, perceive without the brain’s shortcuts—colors as pure energy, sounds as celestial vibrations.
- Act without grasping: Align with life’s flow (Wu Wei), where decisions arise from the dantian’s golden spiral, not the ego’s calculations.
- Transcend duality: The “blossom” is neither realist (bound to matter) nor idealist (lost in abstraction)—it is the “living axis” where both converge.
For Leaders: This is not mysticism—it’s cognitive liberation. When you anchor awareness in the Golden Flower’s light-circuit, you gain:
- Strategic clarity: Decisions unclouded by fear or social conditioning.
- Charismatic presence: A mind that reflects reality like still water, not distorting labels.
- Time mastery: Perception freed from urgency’s grip—meetings become symphonies, data dances.
“The veil is the mind’s OS—the Golden Flower is the hacker’s code.” 🌸💻
Neuroscience Hook: “Recent studies on expert meditators (e.g., Davidson’s work at UW-Madison) show: sustained dantian focus literally rewires the default mode network—dissolving Bergson’s ‘labels’ by dampening semantic processing in the left angular gyrus. The ‘veil’ isn’t poetic—it’s measurable.”
