Monthly Men’s Group
What’s men’s group?
Our monthly men’s group meets every 3rd Sunday of the month at Awakenings Wellness Center in SE Portland, OR. Each month men are invited to join in a 2 hour gathering that invites a space to be seen and heard fully by a group of other men. No matter what is happening in each man’s life, you are encouraged to show up fully and authentically. There is no commitment, however, over half of the men attend regularly (many have been with us from the start (since spring 2021).
What can a men’s group do for you?
Being a man in modern society can be challenging. As men we can often carry burdens of societal and ancestral roles, expectations, and learnings that are outdated and not in support of our highest good and healthy masculine wellbeing.
Our men’s group offers you a safe and held container to explore what it feels like to be you and to be fully seen, heard and witnessed in the process. By doing this work together in a group we begin to affirm that we are not alone in the struggles we face (loneliness, addictions, thoughts of suicide, expressions of anger, and on and on). And the best part is that each month we offer various tools and exercises that you can take home to support your self in your day-to-day.
Who Are We?
Alex & Josh first connected in early 2021. Alex was hosting an online men’s group and eventually Josh began to co-host the event with him. By mid-2021 they began to host in-person events, which evolved into the monthly Men’s Embodiment Group. Alex and Josh have also hosted numerous retreats, supporting men in a weekend intensive setting, usually out in nature.
