We are designed as part of nature to encounter life with amazement and wonder. And yet, our predominant transactional consumer culture trades this for a fiction i.e. that your happiness and ‘worth’ is found through productivity, material gain, technological advancement and social status. The fiction leaves most men with a profound lack of fulfillment, chronic disconnection, loneliness and a frustrated search for meaning.
Men can go for days, weeks, months or years without encountering their own wildness, rarely sharing an authentic, deeply intimate moment with themselves and those they are closest to. It is a critical time for us to stand up for ‘inner work’, a time to listen to our own soul, heal ourselves, and reclaim our wild beauty. The good news is that embedded in our psyche by nature, is the potential for a bigger, more sensuous, more imaginative, more intimate and vital life. As Bill Plotkin posits, ‘it’s time to take another look at ourselves’.
The Knowing the Conscious Man Intensive invites participants to look more deeply at themselves using nature as a mirror of their inner landscape. It is about offering courageous men a deep sense of possibility – an alternative, soul infused, more meaningful and conscious way of embracing and walking your individual path.
The workshop asks a lot of you – if you are drawn to register, prepare to be significantly stretched on the path toward psychological wholeness. Using nature as a mirror, you will be supported to explore the deeper questions about your life – questions that have no right to be ignored. The workshop will take you as deep as you are willing to go – it is being held at ‘Raven’s Nest‘ in Venus Bay south east of Melbourne.
This is a camping-only program and some previous personal growth experience is expected of applicants.
