Basic Structure
Weekly Evening Zoom calls 2.5 hours with a maximum of 12 men
30 minutes of Movement Medicine practice together, in the comfort of your own home
2 hour sharing circle - a theme is always invited as this provides focus and rich material for exploration. However, the most important opportunity is to share from your heart whatever is live for you on any given day and this may or may not speak directly to the proposed them of the evening.
Lightning Round. Every man has a brief check in about how they are arriving in the circle. Authentic truth is invited. No sugar counted shit.
Heart Seat. Assuming there are 12 men in a circle - Week One - 6 Men have 15 mins in THE HEART SEAT, Week Two - 6 Men have 15 mins in THE HEART SEAT. This then alternates with some flexibility if any man is facing significant challenges on any given week and needs to lean into the group a little more. All men will have the opportunity for a deep share at least twice a month.
Holding/ Witnessing Circle. There are clear guidelines around the structure, protocols and values of the ‘HOLDING CIRCE’ - the circle of men witnessing and offering insight, feedback and support to the man in THE HEART SEAT. This is shared with all men who join the circle. It is not rigid or dogmatic, but creates safety, respect, integrity and liberating structure. Base line, we are not here to ‘rescue’ each other or give unsolicited advice, but to respect the path of each man and offer our presence and sensitive responsiveness to whatever is shared.
Top card take aways. Closing round of ‘top card takeaways’ and ‘accountable commitments’. This is an opportunity, similar to the opening lightning round where we can share how we are leaving the circle and to name the insights, medicine, challenges and curiosities that we are taking away with us. It is also an opportunity to share any intentions we have to take the next steps on path and if appropriate to ask for support, encouragement and accountability.
Buddying. Each week we will connect with one other man for at least 30 minutes in the week between group calls. To dive a little deeper in to getting to know each other and to offer/receive support
Whatsapp Group We have a lively group where the circle can share inspirations, breakthroughs, challenges, successes and so on, in the spirit of the circle in written messages and voice or video drops. This provides the lifeblood of the group
This is a safe space to develop a community of humans in male bodies that are looking for liberating structures and practices for accessing and developing their innate capacity to listen to and engage with the full somatic spectrum of how it is to be a living breathing human in a male body: to feel what is asking to be felt through the multiple ‘ways of knowing’ - movement, breath, sensation, sensuality, sexuality, sound, feelings, emotions and imagination and to express what is asking to be expressed through the moving body and embodied listening and expression. As such, this is an opportunity to discover a little more about the blockages in our psyches that limit our capacity to fully live a meaning filled life and to build bridges between the dreams, desires and aspirations we have for our lives and the embodiment, incarnation or ‘lived experience’ of those dreams.
These sessions are for those seeking to take more responsibility for their personal healing journey in the various dimensions of their life and to access more of their golden gifts of wholeness in their personal experience as a body-heart-mind in relationship with others, community, nature, spirit and soul. They are also about resource, safety, inclusion, belonging and connectedness. Witnessing, sharing and ‘power beside’ are golden keys.
“I’ve been a part of a men's group facilitated by Keef over the last 6 months or so. It has been an utterly beautiful experience throughout and has been highly conducive to my healing process. I’ve never been in such a loving & warm environment with a group of men before. I feel a sense of true brotherhood from a group of souls who truly do care deeply about one another. To feel what has emerged and bloomed within myself as a result of being involved has been quite simply amazing. I’ve been able to overcome many aspects of self that I've deemed shameful through opening to vulnerable sharing within the group and being held in everything that I've brought without judgement, only compassion and love. Keef holds the space amazingly and offers frequent pearls of valuable insight to all of us as well as us all sharing with the other members from a place of support and love. I can highly recommend it to any man who is looking to grow and develop themselves in the container of brotherhood!” Jess Falmer, Coach
