Money Wound Men's Day Retreat

This is NOT a Financial Planner Workshop.

This is NOT an Accounting Workshop. 

This is NOT a Financial Investment Workshop. 

This is NOT an Educational & Informational Workshop. 

This is an Experiential Day Retreat. 

This is for those who want to process & discuss their habits and emotions about money, finances, and investments. 

In my personal experience in men’s group (more than a decade), the relationship with money is a subject never explored, plus poorly done, when and if done. This is one of the biggest shadow and blindside in every men’s group I have been involved with. 

This is a Day Retreat to go deeper on this matter by exploring from a different perspective. 

Day Retreat for you (men) who want to:

1. To develop a deeper and authentic relationship with ‘Money’; 

2. Learn from your own experience of earning and spending it;

3. Gain insight on how to use it to an Abundant Life;

4. Connect with Nature, Silence, Money & Spirituality;

III - For Who:

This is a men’s retreat (only), ideally for you who:

1. Never have the opportunity to explore practical and philosophical ways to deal with ‘Money’;
2. is in your mid-life (30 y/old above);
3. is looking for new meaning in life, especially how to reconcile the Financial side of life with the Heart.

IV - The Outcomes might be:

1. Gain a new vision about your life;
2. Learn from your ‘failures’ and ‘victories’ about your financial life;
3. Identify and connect your personal values with the way you spend and earn money;
4. Have a few self-concepts challenged, embraced, and having the feeling of excitement about your new way of seeing and perceiving yourself.

V - What will happen on the Retreat:

In this retreat, all the activities will be through invitation only. Nothing will be forced onto you. The most important matter will be your willingness and intention in challenging what you know about yourself. 

1. There will be NO financial strategies to become rich;

5. Group Meditation;
