Brian M. Truskowski:
I am a beautiful wandering soul, whose purpose is to support others on their
earthly journey. I have walked many paths of career, relationships and living
situations. What I have come to realize over the decades of my life, is that what I
excel at is holding space, listening to others stories, experiences and helping
them navigate it. I also love empowering people to find a healthier and easier
way of living, reminding them of their greatness and helping them find freedom in
their lives.
I am in this field of coaching, teaching and bodywork, because it feeds me on a
soul level. In coaching and teaching, watching the gleam in the eye of my clients
when they “get it”. When that shift that happens, it is so magical! It fills every cell
my body with joy, better than any other experience out there. Knowing that I
helped shift their perspective and was a key in their transformation, is something
I can’t express in words. With bodywork, it’s similar, watching people experience
freedom and ease in their body that has been a stranger to them. To observe
them reacquaint with that, is such a blessing to witness and hold space for. The
word Humbling only scratches the surface.
I’ve been in the healing arts world now for 13 years. I have done a tremendous
amount of personal growth/ self empowerment and leadership work as well as
learning to listen to and heal my own mind, body and spirit. That journey will
continue as long as I’m alive.
I have been on an extensive 10+ year Conscious Self Study of: Personal Growth,
Self Empowerment, Philosophical studies, Psychology, New Age Movement and
ever growing practice of Spirituality, focusing in Eastern Philosophies and
Christianity as well as Native American Traditions. I have also been teaching a
range of personal growth and self empowerment classes and workshops for 6
years.
I have participated and studied with the ManKind Project , which is a nonprofit
training and educational organization with three decades of proven success
hosting life-changing experiential personal development programs for men. I
studied with Landmark Worldwide , an international personal and professional
growth, training and development company with a range of offerings that are
innovative, effective, and immediately relevant. These organizations are integral
to my life and have grown and changed me to be the person I am now.
“In the realm of Bodywork, I am trained in several modalities including Myofascial

Release through the Upledger Institute. As well as energy modalities such as
Polarity Therapy, Reiki and Quantum Touch.
I am a 2011 graduate of the Ann Arbor Institute of Massage Therapy (AAIMT) in

Therapy through AAIMT. I am a member of The Association of Bodywork and
