IN PERSON
AWAKENING THE
WILD EROTIC
An invitation to men...
There is an urgent call to awaken and embody the archetypal Lover.
This potent force beckons us to connect with the depths of our hearts and to cultivate a profound sense of intimacy, passion, and vulnerability in our relationships.
The archetypal Lover encourages men to move beyond mere sexual bravado and embrace the sacred aspect of Eros, the primary force of life.
By awakening the Lover within, you will embark on a transformative journey of self-integration, recognizing that true strength lies in claiming the authenticity of the heart and your potency as an erotic being.
It is through this integration that you can forge a profound reconnection with yourself, your relationships and your experience of life.
You are invited to explore these realms in a rich, alchemical container alongside a group of like-hearted men, in solidarity for personal and collective erotic evolution.
For Men Who Are Seeking:
-
A rare opportunity to explore erotic themes in a safe and supportive space held by men
- to release sexual shame reclaim a core vitality rooted in your masculine essence
- to dissolve self-doubt and patterns of addiction that hold you back cultivating depth with your self & others
- to heal your relationship with men & develop a profound sense of trust & solidarity
- Personalized and attuned guidance and support from professional facilitators
- to let go of your armoured heart & celebrate the joy of being alive
Participant Testimonials:
“[This weekend] was a healing journey into the depths of my erotic soul and helped me retrieve and reclaim some lost parts of myself. The willingness of the men who participated to be vulnerable and truly seen was inspiring and let me feel safe in sharing so much of myself. If you feel called: do it!”

“This was the most powerful and transformative men's container I've ever been a part of. I noticed a total shift in the way I view and hold myself and how I fundamentally perceive myself.
My wife saw the same shift, immediately. It was a form of rite of passage into manhood that I never received. The insights I've gained from this container I already know will stick with me for the rest of my life.”

The Experience:
Awaking the Wild Erotic (AWE) is an immersive invitation into vulnerable and (potentially) triggering territory.
The benefits you receive are directly proportional to your willingness to show up fully in an honest and courageous way.
Many of the principles and practices we will be exploring venture into the esoteric territory of myth, archetypes and somatics.
Gaining experiential wisdom rather than intellectual understanding requires a willingness to dive into the unknown with an open heart and mind.
We’ll explore questions like:
-
what is your personal story to your sexuality and what forces have shaped it?
-
what is the mysterious and alluring force of Eros and how to step into right relationship with it?
-
how you can draw upon realms of archetypal forces to liberate and empower your masculine essence?
-
what is the function of male initiation, and why all traditional cultures practiced it (and continue to do so)?
-
plus, much more.
Modalities Include:
-
Ceremony & Ritual
-
Entheogen Medicine
-
Mythology & Archetypes
-
Council & Dyad Work
-
Cacao & Ecstatic Dance
-
Numa Breathwork
