Feelings: Each course introduces participants to a broad range of feelings to help the Men become more aware of their feelings and to support them develop a full feeling vocabulary. These feelings express a person’s met and unmet Needs. For Men to be in touch with themselves, sensitive and respectful to others, responsive to their essential human needs, it is vital that they know what they are feeling. This course helps them to recognise their feelings, deeply feel their feelings, and to openly and courageously express how they are feeling to others in kind ways.

Masculine Healer Masculine behavior (primarily by Men) has created wounds and left scars, both internally and externally that need to be healed. I am committed to healing myself. When I participate in healing the traumas and wounds that inhabit my being and those around me, then my divine feminine and divine masculine can co-exist and co-create in union, communion, and celebrate together their wholeness.
Brotherhood I learn from my Brothers. I appreciate and value other Men.
Diversity I welcome and include everyone. We need each other. I harvest the gifts and treasures of other people. Together we make a difference.
Sexuality I am assertive and receptive.
Chooser I choose wisely. passionately and with conviction. My decisions are well informed and intuitive. My choices resonate and are congruent with who I am. I choose my family, friends, and lovers. In my humbleness, I desire to be chosen.
The Transformer I am alchemical, I transform dirt into gold, fear into Love
