Workshop for Men with John Lee

Part 1. Understanding the Father/Son Relationship
During this first seminar, John Lee will use his understanding and experience with men (your emotions, issues, and buried or frozen feelings) through lecture, small group dynamics, story-telling, mythology and Q & A.

Participants will gain:

  • A deeper understanding of the male psyche and soul as it relates to the way we were fathered or not.
  • What shut men down in the first place.
  • What it takes to open back up.

Part 2. Understanding Healthy Relationships: Your Partner and You
“He just won’t let me in.”     “I don’t know what she wants.”     “He doesn’t tell me what he is really feeling.”      “I’m not sure what I’m feeling or what I need.”     “He’s not comfortable when I express emotions.”     “He tries to fix me and I just want him to listen.”   

Sound familiar? Words spoken by frustrated women and men—words that will lead to misunderstandings, distance, damaged relationships and divorce. During this seminar John will enable you to gain a greater understanding of the different wants and needs each partner may have, and importantly, how to communicate them effectively for a healthier, stronger relationship.

Part 3. Dealing with Anger and Grief 
Anger itself is a natural, healthy emotion, no more negative than any other. However, anger can have very negative consequences if not expressed on a regular basis. Unexpressed anger turns into rage and chronic emotional tension which robs us of valuable energy, vitality, and health, and thus can lead to us not only hurting ourselves, but also those we love or work with.

This is a safe, supportive, non-shaming setting to do anger work and grief work (they go hand-in-hand), whether it is dealing with loss, death, divorce, disease or childhood trauma. Grieving is a key to healing.
