Inner Man Retreats

It’s time to drop the mask.

Imagine walking into an environment where you can finally take off your social armour. To drop the usual protective layers that we carry around all day. This retreat presents a unique opportunity to truly show up as your authentic self.

In most life situations we men don’t get a huge number of opportunities to open up about things that are important. In this retreat we will be doing some exercises in vulnerability. Gently unpacking some material that you may not show the rest of the world. Carl Jung called this part of us the shadow self. Essentially, the more stuff hidden away in your psyche that is not known to the rest of the world, the more energy you spend trying to hold up the social mask. It’s time to drop the mask.

Allowing your authentic self to step forward in the witness of other men is a powerful experience. As you uncover these layers of the ‘forgotten you’, you’ll often find part of you unfreezes, allowing for a clearer sense of who you are, what is important to you and what you truly want out of life.

Life is fleetingly short and there is simply no time to live others’ expectations anymore.

How does this help?

The more material you can bring to the surface and accept about yourself, the lighter and freer you begin to feel. We’ve all caught glimpses of this when we’re fun, confident and unselfconscious. These wonderful moments come when our outer and inner selves are congruent and we momentarily forget ourselves. The conversation flows; we’re funny, happy and confident—we have nothing to hide.
