It takes a man to be a man!
It requires a beautiful balance between strength and gentleness – power and sincerity.
Most men today have lacked healthy, balanced, wise, and powerful male role models during their upbringing.
As a result, we are left to figure out for ourselves what a healthy masculine/feminine expression of a man looks like – That is difficult.
Modern day society has lost the wiseman, the present father, the powerful chieftain, and the rites of passage that were once used to inspire and guide young men on their journey to maturity – to become a man.
_____
Now is the time to come together to unite ancient wisdom and modern advancement to heal and grow in communion. The work men can do in circles together is not achievable on our own - together we shall shape healthier times for ourselves, our families, our communities and for earth.
_____
When we are not rooted in our healthy masculinity, we experience variations of depression, feelings of weakness, struggles to control anger and frustration, difficulty setting boundaries – and lack of deeper meaning in life.

When a man begins his journey of self-awareness, immature traits start to fade:
- Insecurity and the need to compete: The constant striving to prove one’s worth or mask low self-esteem.
- Emotional disconnection and overthinking: Losing touch with feelings, being controlled by thoughts, and struggling to express emotions authentically.
- People-pleasing and lack of boundaries: Prioritizing others at the expense of standing up for oneself and setting healthy limits.
- Arrogance and emotional armor: Acting superior, shutting down, or pretending to be tough as a way of protecting inner vulnerabilities.
- Victimhood and avoidance of responsibility: Blaming others, playing the victim, and avoiding ownership of personal growth.
_____
Healthy Men Groups create the necessary space for men to explore what it means to be a man – and to become better at being men.
In a Sacred Space, we open up to what often has no room in everyday life and practice embodying the archetypal strengths of healthy masculinity.
_____
When a man steps into his power, he can more fully:
- Stand firm in himself: Feel and set clear boundaries, prioritize what matters, and align his actions with his values.
- Lead with courage and wisdom: Hold space for others, act with purpose, and set the ego aside for a higher cause.
- Grow through self-awareness: Embrace imperfections, take responsibility, and commit to constant personal development.
- Feel deeply and authentically: Acknowledge, express, and regulate emotions.
- Honor his body, mind, and soul: Care for himself fully while walking the path of growth.

If you feel the call of your inner King, then time has come for you to join a brotherly fellowship where men confront each other in love, to access our highest potentials.

_____
The 9th April is an introduction day where we will share some of the Menswork which we do in workshops and retreats. You will experience what it feels like to be supported and to support in brotherhood. The day offers tasters to group and 1:1 exercises, meditation, reflection, play, movement, and teaching.

About the Space holder;
Simon combines his experience in South American shamanism, Eastern philosophy, meditation, and trauma therapy to create transformative spaces for both men and women.
