Workshop Overview
This program is designed to help separated and divorced men navigate the often painful and disorienting experience of loss. If you are feeling hurt, angry, or lonely, this workshop invites you to work with others on a similar path toward healing and renewal. You do not need to have attended Men’s Rites of Passage (MROP) to participate.
We will use spiritual practices and introspective tools to gently crack open the "hard nut of the ego" and let the light of healing in. Each session includes practices such as grounding, prayer, journaling, and shadow work.
What You’ll Learn
The workshop will explore tools and techniques to transform pain into growth. The workshop includes:
Grounding: Re-centering and reconnecting with yourself
Shadow Work: Meeting and transforming the hidden parts of yourself
Prayer & Journaling: Using reflection and spiritual practices to aid healing
The Tools: Practical exercises to overcome negative patterns and foster emotional well-being
This course is flexible and operates on a drop-in basis, meaning you can attend as many sessions as possible without pressure to attend every meeting.
