As Rumi wrote: “What is the soul? Consciousness. The more awareness, the deeper the soul, and when such essence overflows, you feel a sacredness around. It’s so simple to tell one who puts on a robe and pretends to be a dervish from the real thing. We know the taste of pure water…”

Do you know why relationships too often suck? Because no one taught us how to do them any damn better!

If you're like most people, you're probably doing relationship with such unnecessary ignorance that you actually push away the love you want.

That was definitely me for 2 decades. In 2010, after suffering through yet another awful breakup, I began to awaken from my ignorance. I started exploring essential insights and practices for successful love that ... really ... someone should have frickin' taught me BEFORE I stumbled clueless into the utterly perplexing realm of dating, intimacy, sex, and love.

Since then, I've coached over a thousand individuals &amp; couples on their own journey into a profound authentic love they never even knew possible.

This 10+ hour audio program is the best of what I use with my clients and my own exquisite partner. It shows you what exquisite, authentic love looks like and how to create it yourself.

This is only for people who are genuinely ready for an authentic relationship rooted in mutual trust, respect and appreciation, generosity and heart connection ... and raw, real love.

If you're truly ready for that deeply sexy, courageous intimate partnership you may not even be convinced is possible ... experience "Love Sex Relationship Magic" now.

Love, Sex, Relationship Magic with Bryan Reeves, Sample 3

This album was recorded during the first public presentation addressing the subject of Bly’s latest book, The Sibling Society, and John’s forthcoming, Teach Us to Care &amp; Not to Care.&nbsp;Bly and Lee share their thoughts, feelings and experiences about how and why we have become a nation of “squabbling siblings.”&nbsp;Discover how to identify these “half-adult” behaviors and what affect they have on society and relationships. Learn how to replace adolescent actions with adult choices.

Robert Bly is a storyteller, poet, and world-wide lecturer. His ground-breaking best seller, Iron John, was a catalyst for what has come to be known as the men’s movement.

John Lee is the Former Executive Director and Founder of the Austin Men’s Center and best-selling author. His outstanding book, The Flying Boy, is an extraordinary literary contribution in helping men and women understand men.

Regression in a Sibling Society, Sample

The Flying Boy is a record of one man’s journey to find his “true masculinity” and his way out of co-dependent and addictive relationships. It’s for all men and women who grew up in dysfunctional families and are now ready for some fresh insights into their past and their pain.

This audio is also about grieving, a very misunderstood process often confused with self-pity. The Flying Boy opens doors to understanding — men will understand themselves and each other, and women will more deeply understand men, learn how to be with wounded men and still take care of themselves.

This book combines John's experience, strength and hope with awareness gained from years of working with men's groups and Adult Children. It offers a unique and fresh insight into co-dependency, fears of intimacy, abandonment and commitment and how to overcome them.

John Lee has taught Religious Studies at Austin Community College and Literature, Humanities and American Studies at The University of Texas and the University of Alabama. With a private counseling practice specializing in masculine psychology and men’s issues, co-dependency and adult children of alcoholics, he also is the director of the Austin Men’s Center.
