The Art of Masculine Holding
Two nights and three days,
deep in the womb of the wild.
What if we put it all down?
What if we let it all rest?
Our roles. Our ideas. Our plans. What if we let go of trying to achieve or attain something?
What would life look like if we set aside everything we thought we knew about how to be a man?
What if we offered it all at the altar of the Earth, and invited in the first breath of a new way?
This is an invitation to gather.
As men. As brothers.
Deep in the womb of the wild.
Much is asked of us in our lives, yet even more is given.
This is a journey to that place. Where life gives. Where our heartbeat matches Hers. Where the sacred speaks through silence.
This is where we begin.
Surrendering into the arms of the Earth.
For two nights and three days, we'll come together in the forest — where water flows and mountains watch from the horizon. We'll sleep close to the Earth. And we'll spend time alone. And together. And alone. And together.
Remembering how to listen. Remembering how to receive.
This, She asks of us. Be open. Be willing. Receive what comes. Let it all flow.
No grasping. No control. No possessions.
Receive. In Awe.
This is the Art of Masculine Holding.
She is waiting.
She is ready.
She is calling us home.

Wilderness
The land is not background. It's not even container. It's participant.
I'm listening and walking lands to hear what's alive for this. None of this is mine. You can register in trust that this is being tended with care. I'll let you know as soon as she comes.
$422
If cost is prohibitive but
the offering is resonant,
we'll find a way.
Everything else can stay in the car — including phones.
No tents. No campers. Close to the Earth.
