Diving Deep

"Men are not free when they are doing just what they like.
Men are only free when they are doing what the deepest self likes.
And there is getting down to the deepest self!
it takes some diving." – D.H Lawrence

Getting Unstuck

You know what words we hear most from men?

“I’m stuck.”

Men get stuck in the three Ps: porn, procrastination, and passion (lack of it). They get stuck in addiction, depression, co-dependency, dead-end jobs, and dead-end relationships. Stuck in bad habits like too much television, porn, internet, and carbs, and too little time in the gym. Stuck in fantasy, daydreaming, crushes, ruminations, and just flat out wasting their lives.

Here is the irony of stuckness. Most of us are stuck not because we’re so enamored with what we’re doing, but because we’re trying to avoid something else. And what is that something else?

Honestly, most of us don’t have a clue.

But it’s down there lurking, and we invest a lot of energy avoiding it.

We could give it lots of names:

Unbearable, Unsayable Emotions
Our Personal Hell
The Dark Night of the Soul
Childhood Trauma
The Ghosts Lurking in Our Psyche
Skeletons Hiding in the Closet

We might attribute our stuckness to laziness, procrastination, fear of success, self-limiting beliefs, genetics, family and social expectations, or general busyness.

Ultimately, however, it doesn’t matter what we call it. What matters most is that when we avoid what lurks below, we pay a big price:

We are often on the edge of dropping into the black hole of self-hatred and shame.
We live with a low-grade depression that we fear is waiting to swallow us whole.
A free-floating anxiety makes every major life event feel overwhelming and life-threatening.
We see every encounter as another opportunity to confirm and expose our greatest fears about ourselves: that we are defective and unlovable.
We feel like imposters, hiding our shameful feelings.
We live in fear of being found out.
We let our addictions not only waste our time and energy, but deprive us of passion and damage us and those we love.
We tolerate lives that don’t amount to much more than putting one foot in front of the other (and consuming one thing after another).

In dealing with these issues, most self-help books, therapists, and coaches – along with friends and family members, bartenders, and hairdressers – will point you in the completely wrong direction, which often sounds something like:

“Snap out of it.”
“Just give it time.”
“You’re great; she’s the jerk. It’s her loss.”
“Don’t dwell in negative feelings. Think positive.”
“Never feel fear (or anger, or sadness, or depression) again.”
“Just get over it.”
“Stay busy.”
“Try harder.”

Unfortunately, none of these approaches works – you know that; you’ve tried them – because you can’t get rid of what is hard-wired into your system. Your emotions are part of you, just like your arms and legs and heart and head, so getting rid of them is a fool’s mission.

Diving into Darkness

You’ve tried everything else, so why not do what really works: get down with your bad self.

Join Drs. Robert Glover and Michael Pariser in a unique weekend workshop, exploring, connecting with, and embracing the darkness within.

This workshop will give you tools, guidance, and support to explore the darker, hidden places you’ve spent your life avoiding.

“Dive into Darkness” will be highly interactive and personal. We will use the portals of shame, anger, sexuality, habitual emotional reactions, dreams, and death to guide you into the depths of your emotional operating system. We will help you integrate what you find there into an authentic, passionate, satisfying life.

So…

If you want to finally face your biggest fears,
If you want to live a better life,
If you want to wake up every morning excited about what lies ahead,
If you want to live with passion in all that you do,
If you want to open up and fully give and receive love,
If you want to take the power away from addictive and compulsive behaviors,
If you want to live up to your full potential,
If you want to tap into your creative self,
If you want to unblock the flow of vibrant sexual energy,

then check this out…
