Welcome to Unguarded Life
My name is Christian, and I want to thank you for reading this! Unguarded Life is about breaking through the great wall you and I have built around us, about allowing ourselves to feel it all, about growing a bigger heart, about how we can touch each other's soul with hands, words, and presence.
I have crated this space to share my passion for passion for Tantra, Yoga, breathwork, music, dance, bodywork, and writing. Since 2021, I co-create retreats and workshops with my partner Carmen. Our digital home is called FULLY ALIVE. Most of my offerings, including 1:1 sessions, are migrated there.
For now, UNGUARDED LIFE will stay, possibly with a few new blog posts here and there. The future of this project will emerge once it is ready.
I love to co-create and collaborate, so if anything here resonates, please reach out!
The words below express my deep passion for living life with an unguarded heart:
Be careful, they said.
Be mindful, they said.
It might hurt.
You never know.
Better to protect yourself.
Better not reveal anything.
Better keep it all in.
But tell me, then:
What is your guarded heart’s worth?
True enough,
it beats and keeps you alive.
But it suffers in its cage,
and dies a slow, painful, lonely death,
that lasts all of your life.
So I will no longer guard my heart.
Let it shatter to a thousand pieces,
let it hurt,
let it be ripped out.
I know a new heart will grow in its place.
A bigger, stronger one,
holding an even deeper love.
Yes, I offer my heart
For anyone to stab it to death,
If so they desire.
I walk on that edge,
Willing to take the fall.
For I’d fall gladly
In return for being truly alive.
And if I need to,
I will rip your heart out, too.
And burn it in the fire
So you, too, can be free,
of the great wall that surrounds you.
And so you, too, can grow a bigger heart
embracing all of yourself with fierce love.
