I - 1 Day Retreat (8 am to 5.30 pm)

What: 1 Day Workshop for you (men) who want to learn about the depths of sexuality, from your own sexual experiences, and use the sexual energy for personal development and growth.

II - Why come to this Day Retreat:

Identify and connect with your Sexual Energy;
Explore a subject we all love, but never talk with maturity;
Connect with Nature, Silence, Sexuality & Spirituality;

Gain a new vision about your life;
Learn from your ‘failures’ and ‘sufferings’ in your sexual life;
Identity and connect the similarities of your sexual feelings with your ‘normal’ feelings;
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 to challenging what you know about yourself.

Solitude & Reflective time in Nature;
Group Meditation.

VII - About the Facilitator:

Felipe Oliveira is one of the first 25 The Way of Council facilitators in Queensland, plus a registered counsellor for men who are seeking an Authentic Life.

He has been on his own deeper journey for more than 10 years, always creating workshops and retreats targeting males who are searching for an authentic life. During his Master's Degree in Counselling, he dived deep in men’s issues through evidenced-based therapies (Gestalt and Person-Centred) along with the Deep Psychology of Jung and the sacred teachings of Joseph Campbell through the Hero’s Journey - the teachings that influenced the classic movie busters (Star Wars, Matrix, Gladiator, Braveheart and etc).

He, also, has been passionate and advocate of the concept that sexuality and spirituality are two sides of the same coin explored by David Schnarch, Sebastian Moore, and Esther Perel.
