My Journey & Transformation With Meeting Women & Life

Published by Sean on November 9, 2008 in Articles and Motivation. 1 Comment

My name is Sean and I used to be addicted to women.

The story begins 6 years ago when I was burned by two girlfriends in a row. I was dating them each for a year and both of them ended up cheating on me. I was motivated to improve myself and that is what lead me to finding the community. Even though I was a pretty cool guy in Highschool playing hockey and knowing the cool people, I never had that much success with girls and when I did get one they would fuck someone else!

I stumbled upon ASF and through the wingman meetup forum I was introduced to Stefan of Lifestyle Transformations. Stefan wanted to improve his life because he was lonely and tired of just playing video games and eating junk food.

When we met Stefan was shy, timid and quiet. He was the definition of a geek. When I met him I was thinking “I’m going to learn how to pickup women with this guy?” He introduced me to Cheyenne, John, Scott and a few others. Together we got the Vancouver Lair started with another guy by the name of Ron. We decided to go our separate ways from Ron to focus on improving ourselves.

We went out 6 and sometimes 7 nights a week. The beginning was rough. We couldn’t even ask an ugly girl on the street for directions or the weather. We spent 10 hours a day in malls, on the street, in coffee shops, in nightclubs all ‘peacocked’ out. We would talk to hundreds of people per day. We did this for 6 months straight. No rest for the weak!

Ayahuasca — Spirit Medicine

Published by Stefan on August 29, 2008 in Articles, Miscellaneous and Self Improvement. 1 Comment

The other day I had an intense experience.

My friend and life coach invited me to a spiritual ceremony that was taking place here in Vancouver, which I decided to check out.  A shaman from Peru by the name Diego was in town for a few days hosting this event.

The ceremony was based around the use of a ancient medicine called “Ayahuasca”, also known as the “teacher plant”, which has been used for thousands of years by the indigenous people of the Amazon for holistic healing, empowerment, and spiritual insight.

An active ingredient of the Ayahuasca brew is DMT, which is naturally produced in the human brain, known for causing psychological and neurological states.  DMT is believed to play a role in the visual effects of natural dreaming, and also near-death experiences and other mystical states.

And so the purpose of Ayahuasca is to induce you into a full state of consciousness — a state where you lose total control, and every fear, insecurity, and your “inner demons” arise.

The experience can be so intense, as a lot of childhood traumas and past experiences which have been suppressed for years come up and you’re faced to confront them.  The process of “letting go” and surrendering to what you’re facing has been proven to be transformative. 

The taking of Ayahuasca has been associated with the cures of depression, addictions, cancers, and is known for many other spontaneous remissions.  For others, it is used to clear emotional blocks and to gain a sense of peace.

It is said that many notable celebrities have publicly discussed their use of Ayahuasca, such as Sting, Tori Amos, and Paul Simon.

For myself, I don’t have anything serious going on in my life or anything needing to “cure.”  My intent with Ayahuasca was to destroy any fear, anxiety or limitations that have been holding me back — and to take the level of love I have for myself and others to another level.  And in my ceremony, I feel I accomplished that.

The experience I went through is impossible to describe.

The Fastest Way to Learn - Total Immersion

Published by Stefan on April 11, 2008 in Motivation and Self Improvement. 1 Comment

I just got back from a 4-day immersion seminar in LA. And before that, Jason and I just finished doing a 3-day immersion bootcamp with a few students here in Vancouver.

Let me tell you, the experience was powerful. It was unlike any other experience I had been through.

The two immersion events in a row helped me come up with an amazing realization, that has completely changed the way I view mastering and learning a new skillset.

I’ve said it a few times already… TOTAL IMMERSION.

Think about it… would you rather learn the Greek language by attending a weekly class, or by going to Greece and immersing yourself in the Greek culture?
