Michael Pottern: Zen Den Experience Guide
About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Michael Pottern's journey began in the heart of Denver, CO. His entrepreneurial spirit took root during middle school with Phozzie's Playpen, a bulletin board system dedicated to conversations about music discovery, new technologies, and connecting people.
After achieving rapid success in real estate in his 20s, Michael experienced physical, emotional, and spiritual burnout, leading him to seek a more meaningful and sustainable path to happiness. Embarking on a cross-country road trip, Michael explored the open road, met new people, and discovered healing modalities. This adventure inspired the creation of his wellness-focused company, Find My Zen, originally launched in 2016. Over the years, the company evolved into a platform connecting curious seekers with wellness spaces in 12 cities across the country.
The Denver Zen Den reflects Michael's personal journey, emphasizing the importance of "being" rather than just "doing." Through introspection, he recognized the significance of presence and its impact on his life. This realization led him to seek deeper connections with both himself and others, shifting his focus from external markers of success to internal fulfillment.
Michael's exploration of various offerings and workshops over the past five years revealed recurring principles that apply to most of them. Additionally, he uncovered emerging technologies that complement and enhance these ancient practices. The journey itself became the destination, fostering personal and collective fulfillment, and aligning with the desired expression of the soul.
