MEN'S HIKES AND BACKPACKING TRIP
Life can be difficult. Navigating the ups and downs often feels easier when we're connected to others walking paths of healing and growth.One of my core missions is to help men cultivate deeper connection to SELF, to OTHERS, and to NATURE. I believe that when we are more connected, we experience greater clarity and contentment in our lives.
To foster connection, I will be hosting a series of outdoor events over the coming months, specifically designed for men seeking community and personal exploration.
Here's what's coming up. Feel free to share this email with men who might be interested in this work:
1. Sierra Nevada Men's Backpacking Trip
What: An immersive 4-day guided backpacking journey in the Sierra Nevadas exploring silence, nature, and connection. A chance to exit the daily grind and connect with yourself and fellow travelers on the path.

When: July 18th - July 21st
Interested? Please email me for more detailed information about the itinerary, requirements, and cost.

For over a decade I have been leading men’s groups exploring the transformative power of mindfulness-based relational practice. Participating in men's groups has helped me to heal and grow more than almost anything I have done. This process of coming together with men to get honest and real about the challenges we face leads to the emergence of grounded resilience, new creativity, and genuine confidence. We change for the better. We grow into who we are. This work impacts and improves our work, love, and family relationships.
