Zach Polsfuss, Director of Expansion with Higher Brain Living®, has an undeniable passion for understanding the biggest questions facing us as human beings. Who are we? Why are we here? Why is sustainable change so rare? He has devoted his life to pursuing the answers to these questions. Zach’s quest has led him to discover Higher Brain Living® for himself and has inspired him to lead others in this new movement.
Zach is a dynamic and engaging speaker who conveys his passion and conviction for Higher Brain Living® by leading with his heart. Through his journey of personal growth and transformation, Zach has traveled the globe to places such as Vancouver, Canada and Brisbane, Australia to see the likes of Sydney Banks, the founder of The Three Principles, and Prem Rawat, teacher of the meditation technique called Knowledge.
After witnessing a Higher Brain Living® presentation, Zach was blown away by the immediate efficacy of the hands on technique and also the deep meaning with which he could now work. He left his successful career in sales to pursue Higher Brain Living® full time by enrolling in Advanced License Training. At training Zach states “I was rewarded with the most acute and permanent life-changing experience of my life,” the “kind of experience people spend their entire lives meditating to achieve and never do, an unfathomable life changer”. He then put his new knowledge and skills into action and opened an AWAKEN Higher Brain Living™ Center in the heart of Minneapolis. In addition Zach was invited to join the National Higher Brain Living® Presenters Team and was quickly promoted to Higher Brain Living® Director of Expansion.
Zach is also an Advanced Higher Brain Living® Trainer and now states “I feel humbled and grateful to be part of something that is going to profoundly change the world”.
