Masculine Compass Directions – Increasing Balance and Self Care
This is an introductory talk to raise awareness on the issues related to men’s mental health and healthy masculinity. To dive deeper, consider working with me individually or joining a men’s group that I offer or elsewhere in your community.
If these 4 modes of Thinking, Feeling, Doing, and Being speak to you and you want to dive deeper into them on your own, this is a good readable reference: The Four Archetypes of the Mature Masculine: Introduction. Sometimes the language of archetypes doesn’t resonate for people, and that is fine. Just substitute Thinking, Feeling, Doing, and Being and there is good information to be had.
