What will You do for Your Soul this Year?
Or for the Soul of a Man you Love?Future Masculine Men's Retreat & Toolshop Conference
Sedona, Arizona ~ April 24-26, 2015Celebrate Being a Man
Come Celebrate and Investigate being a man in the 21st century with other men. We will gather, we will Share, we will Dance, we will Drum, we will tell Stories and we will create Ritual. We recognize that we are all teachers and we are all students.
Let us embrace our Masculine strength and summon the courage to surrender to love, to tenderness, to the Feminine, to the soft whispers of Mother Earth and all her wisdom.
Creating a New Masculine
It is time for us to create a new story, one based upon developing a tender heart and to stop living out our old cultural stories. We must be bold, honest and responsible in every waking moment. The new work for men is work we must do in order to be fully human.
Our way out is to develop connections with men in our lives who we respect and love. We will move out of our homophobic fear of being in relationship with other men. Feeling the support of other men allows us to be in better relationship with ourselves, our significant others and with our children.
Honor Your Heart
Our masculine hearts are in need of honoring and an honest assessment. The uncomfortable truth is that our masculine hearts are wounded and lacking in both courage and commitment.
Remembering our Purpose
Our true purpose is known by our inner self, the self we call The Elemental Self. The Elemental Self is the part of us that remembers and reclaims our connection to the natural world and all the Elements therein.
Embody your Genius
Every one of us is born with a Genie, a Genius. We were all asked, “what are you going to be when you grow up?” We will honor an ancient paradigm that asks the question: “what gifts do you bring?”
