In this paper, we give a new construction of the adapted complex structure on a neighborhood of the zero section in the tangent bundle of a compact, real-analytic Riemannian manifold. Motivated by the ``complexifier'' approach of T. Thiemann as well as certain formulas of V. Guillemin and M. Stenzel, we obtain the polarization associated to the adapted complex structure by applying the ``imaginary-time geodesic flow'' to the vertical polarization. Meanwhile, at the level of functions, we show that every holomorphic function is obtained from a function that is constant along the fibers by ``composition with the imaginary-time geodesic flow.'' We give several equivalent interpretations of this composition, including a convergent power series in the vector field generating the geodesic flow.
