Body ALIVE embodiment expert, Aspen Shakti Yoga Studio founder, The ALIVE Culture creatrice, and Alive Living Guide, Jayne Gottlieb joins us in this episode of The Hope Merchant Podcast to discuss what it really means to come alive and embody full-spectrum living. What does it mean to be the director and writer of your own movie, the actor playing it out and the audience watching the show all at the same time? “Years from now when I look back and replay the movie that is my life, I want to say ‘Wow, that was a damn good show!'” Jayne’s approach to alive living comes from her many years of experience offering movement and community, embracing her deep love for dance and theater and yoga and bringing those passions to life through offerings like the Body ALIVE, a vibrant movement practice designed to get you out of your head and into your body, awakening the sacral chakra to experience a deep connection to your most authentic and radiant Self. Though the Body ALIVE takes the cake as her signature offering, Jayne is always creating new offerings that help awaken what’s dormant to experience all the flavors and colors of life. Join us as we discuss what it really means to be ALIVE.
