A course for men hosted over 4 months – June to September 2019 It’s so easy as men to live in our comfort zones. Even within increasingly hectic lifestyles that cram in too much, there is no time to slow down. Men often neglect creating free time in exchange for the “to do list” aspirationally busy lifestyle, when what they are yearning for is some solitude and space for free thinking and reflection. Our work may challenge us intellectually, but how often as men do we take risks, explore our edge, step outside of what we know, and challenge ourselves emotionally and physically? During this programme we will support each other to explore where our edges lie and ask ourselves what challenges us about being men, and what do we love about being men. Through inquiry, movement-based work and time in solitude in the wilderness, we can return to our daily lives more centred, with a greater capacity to be confident and relaxed, within ourselves, in every situation. Join us for an extended 4 month programme that will inspire the courage to tell the truth and dig into how we show up as men. Where we will explore cultivating stillness, reawakening a sense of aliveness, delve into purpose and enjoy the support of community.

Men’s work is about intentionally moving beyond the ‘macho’ culture that has been pervasive in western culture for so long. It’s about exploring our own vulnerability, shadow, shame and brotherhood. Men aren’t taught to ‘share’ their inner world, something that women are more inclined to do.
A Retreat About Outer Adventure and Inner Safari Our journey begins with a revitalising soak (traditionally done as a purification ritual) in a natural thermal hot spring. We then begin a 5 day hiking retreat in a sacred valley in Tuscany. This journey will be physically challenging.
Over the following 5 months each participant will belong to an inquiry group that will meet regularly online or physically (if distance allows), to explore themes of meaning, communication, polarity, relationship and more.
We will conclude our journeying together by reviewing and sharing insights we have gained. Gathering for a final day and night, in a deep woods, we will close by song, story-telling around the camp-fire, feasting, dreaming and sleeping under the stars together.
The first retreat is scheduled 5 - 9 June 2019 in Tuscany, Italy. The final camp out is scheduled for September in South East England - full details to be announced on registration.
" Participating in Way Of Nature UK Into the Mountains was a huge learning experience-crossing the threshold into pristine wilderness, realising what nature is, discovering my own nature, catching up with my masculinity. Our guides created an easy brotherhood amongst all the participants - free from pressure and competition - fostering laughter, curiosity, and adventure. They made sure the whole group were safe, and prepared outwardly, and inwardly, for all the challenges we faced. The 24 hour solo quest was sublime, the experience of a lifetime! I came back feeling deeply relaxed, wide, energised, active, joyful and mature - to a far greater extent than I thought possible. Anyone seeking wholeness, an invigorating connection to themselves and nature, a soulful adventure and a new perspective on life, manhood and the world around us - I would strongly urge you to get involved with Way Of Nature UK. What they are doing is unique and, quite simply, essential. " RYAN
