Brothers! Have you ever felt called to connect with your fellow man?  Ever feel like you need a non-judgmental, supportive place to talk openly about your hopes, fears, desires, vulnerabilities, dreams?  What if you could become part of a community of men that strives to elevate one another? If this feels right, then this Men’s Circle is for you. Open to all male-identifying beings.

🌶️ Mild: The workshop does not invite sensuality or sexuality. There will be no facilitator invitations to cuddle or share moving touch, plus no welcoming or invoking of sexual energy. Any partner dancing that occurs will default to or center open position.

Notes: Both couples and individuals are welcome! It is recommended, though not required, to attend the Authentic Self-Relating workshop on Friday to set the foundation for this one.

The extent to which our childhoods impact every facet of our adult romantic relationships is often shocking to discover. In this workshop, we’ll explore intimate relationships through the lens of Internal Family systems (IFS), which is a wonderful
approach to help us get in touch with our true selves, see the big picture, and get to know our minds in a deeper way. We’ll go beyond attachment styles and take a deep look at how the many parts of our minds play major roles in our behaviors, tendencies, and patterns within intimate relationships.

Understanding what drives these repetitive behaviors – in both ourselves and our partner(s) – enables compassion for both self and other, and also provides a roadmap to healing the underlying causes from the bottom-up. As we do this, we will notice significant changes in our relationship dynamics.

We’ll also do some experiential exercises – both at the group level, and in rotating pairs – to get a deeper feel for how this approach can help. We’ll encourage some brief shares by those who are willing to do so, followed by Q&A as time permits.
