Mens Alchemy

MEN'S ALCHEMY

Four days and three nights of uncommonly deep healing and transformation. 

WHAT'S THE PURPOSE?

This is an intensive retreat like no other where you will transcend the protections that numb you, learn practices that evolve your ability to embrace all of life and embody the essence of purpose.

You will discover a deeper connection to your masculine roots, learn to cultivate your power and reignite that burning passion for life. Your presence will expand, your ability to connect to the core of your being will anchor and you will find the profound nourishment of being amongst a brotherhood who both celebrate and respectfully demand more of you, in service of life.

You will:

  • Learn how to be driven by purpose rather than the fear of failure or need to prove.
  • Discover the art of being deliberate, direct and honest while communicating from the heart.
  • Shift from care taking and over servicing to supporting, allowing and holding space.
  • Transcend patterns of resistance, protection, withholding, deflecting responsibility, minimising impact of errors, suppression of others expression and repression of your feminine.
  • Move from aggression, self abandonment, blame and judgement to clarity, ownership and love.
  • Learn embodied tools and practices needed to uphold  structures that sustain your vitality, willpower and drive for life.
  • Derive your sense of success based on how you show up instead of the need for more wealth, influence or domination.
  • Be shown how to hold space for your own feelings, find clarity in a busy mind and ask for what you need.
  • Understand integrity and commit to only what your deepest purpose asks of you.

If you’re feeling called to join us then book in a time to chat with Amber. We will automatically email you a PDF summary of inclusions, audio breakdown and investment options with the ability to secure your place right away. If you would like more clarity, keep the call and Amber will answer any questions you have.

Many men’s initial exposure to self-discovery and healing is something along the lines of, ‘well, that sounds great, but how the hell do I do that?’

Alchemy guides men who have intellectualised the *work* in the areas of masculine leadership, spiritual connection and emotional healing and shows them how to become an embodiment of it.

The ego will be challenged in safe environments while we hold a compassionate space for the unraveling of conditioned protection and transcendence of old defensive mechanisms that have become (consciously or unconsciously) destructive behaviours.

Alchemy will allow you to find clarity, direction and leave behind the burdens of life that seem impossible to place down. It's a rite of passage from self awareness to self mastery.

We will explore some of the following topics.

  • Transmuting old conditioning, negative patterns and sabotaging behaviours into self-leadership.
  • Taking charge of your mind, energy and emotions through the breath and embodiment practices.
  • Learn to lead your life powerfully from a place of integrity and love.
  • Dissolver barriers, protection, avoidance and intimidation patterns in relationships.
  • Cultivating respect for the earth, wilderness and reverence of the feminine.
  • Connecting with more subtle senses for inciting safety in and inspiring surrender.
  • Moving from reactivity, defensiveness, aggression and blame to ownership, humility and openness.
  • Alignment of your words and action with your purpose and truth.

Alchemy will show you how to embody presence, live from your purpose, and embrace your power.
