Why Should Men come together for this Initiation?
Why Should Men come together for this Initiation?
Like all transformations it begins as an inside job.
As we offer ourselves to the evolutionary fires of initiation; we become what we seek to bring into the world.
This is the sacred journey of the modern spiritual warrior and it is best to share this journey in a collective brotherhood.
Old styles of masculine leadership are failing.
To share in vulnerability as a collective group of men is incredibly healing.
To support and allow another man to hear your deepest weaknesses, can be your greatest strength.
It’s time to reshape and reform the conditioning around male intimacy.

I got hit hard from day one and then told it was just a beginning and a taste. It was incredible and I loved the intensity and the deep connection. I loved to see Aaron speak his truth with tears in his eyes and his willingness to give to us all that wisdom. I really hope to take the vulnerability I allowed this week into my outside life. To be brave to show the complete me to myself and the world!

As my first step into this world, I quickly discovered that I had formed my people, my place within the 1st day. I could tell this would be a journey like no other. I was so impressed with the sequence of lessons and how we rapidly climbed upthrough the rubble of our perception and into the place of love and freedom. This truly is an initiation and should not be missed too. Change your world. It’s safe here.

Beyond the masks, there is the heart. And it's sometimes a long way to reach it. Especially from a man to another man. Beyond the competition, there is love. And it can be scary to express it and let it grow. It's what this experience led us to. As brotherhood, the ability to vibrate love from our hearts.

The initiation journey retreat is a profound experience of self discovery through connection with other men. A newfound sense of trust and safety has been found within myself. A greater capacity to hold my own emotions, and find love where there can be grief, sadness or anger. Showing up in alignment with my own power, so I can lead, and love in integrity with myself and others, and feel more solid, joyful and loving in my life and with others.

About
This Men’s Initiation Journey is a way of bringing men together in vulnerability, in brotherhood, in sisterhood, and in their heads and hearts. From it’s conception a seed was planted to start birthing these initiation journeys for other MEN all over the world. This is happening. It is time to start coming together to redefine masculinity and to support men into their full integration.

I am still processing the profound shifts within myself. The depth and power of this work has repeatedly brought me to tears, triggered deep wounds that were begging to be acknowledged and brought to the light and revealed a connection to sacred brotherhood that is otherwise completely unavailable to my generation. The rituals are initiations into the wholeness of manhood, restored from long-forgotten tribal practices.

Work of this kind should be regarded as essential to any man seeking to embody his full and truest self, to improve his relationship with men, women, family, God and self. This experience touches upon the way we will address business, career, friendship, and all. I am reborn, renewed, and ready to deepen this journey.

Knowing we need to work on ourselves means to touch into the unknown. This retreat allows us to hear and be heard. Techniques beyond traditional methods are presented and we expand our view of ourselves and the world. Connection unlike any other. This retreat is needed for all men to explore.

The retreat dramatically shifted my perception of masculinity. I never thought that going through vulnerability, love, and safety can make me a stronger man. I feel the great gratitude towards my brothers and all men in general which I believe can make my life more fulfilling and better. It's been unbelievable experience which keep an imprint for my entire life.

This was the most profound and holistic retreat I ever participate. I can recommend Aaron's retreat every man who feels ready to jump. All the 7 days I have seem highly integer facilitator. I felt all the time save. The transformation I have experienced is so profound and deep. The value is more than five times higher than the price I paid. I would love to assist this retreat or smaller workshops facilitated by Aaron 10 out of 10. Thank you Aaron.

Come to the reatreat without any expectation other than going deep with the inner work with a group of brothers. In every day of reatreat workshops, I was witnessing myself shedding a layer after layer longing: to feel more, to connect more, to show up as the truest version of my being. This reatreat enabled me to express myself fully by being held by loving brothers, facilitators.

I came to the retreat looking for the man in me, but I did not know the love that would happen. I had many intense, rollercoaster full days where I connected to my inner fears, anxiety, anger, sadness and was able to let them all go. Coming to the end of the retreat, I felt a deeper still presence in me; a strong life force that held me strongly, joyfully and with peace. The love and presence I have been looking for in external masculine, I first found it in my brothers here, and I finally found it in me. I’m totally grateful for this embodied experience for the rest of my life. Thank you
