A Deeper Love – Annual Intensive Retreat
4 April 2023 @ 14:00 - 10 April 2023 @ 16:00
NAKEDMAN is proud to offer ‘A Deeper Love’ week-long intensive retreat.
This intensive retreat is for all men who seek to dive deep, deep into themselves, deep into relationship with other men and deep into connection with the world around them.
Over the seven days and six nights we will immerse ourselves into a community of men, embracing the qualities of spirit, intimacy, sensuality, authenticity, sexuality, respect, deep healing and love.
We will work relationally in groups, exploring our hidden dynamics and core erotic themes. We will work somatically with our own and each others bodies, discovering and trusting the wisdom held within our core. We will perform ritual as a way to bring forth our higher selves and connect back into a greater source.
Dive deep into yourself, into your relationships with other men the world around you
Our experienced and qualified team of facilitators and assistants will bring together a rich tapestry of healing traditions including but not limited to, various Psychotherapy & Counselling Modalities, Sexological Bodywork, Somatic Sex Coaching, Group Process and Various Massage/Touch Modalities.

Programme
Each day will begin in community as we practice the ’Five Erotic Pillars’ of mindful self touch. As you learn to play the instrument that is your own body, you will develop a deeper understanding and trust in how your body communicates its wants needs and desires. You will experience orgasmic healing and the collective power of men in erotic charge.
After a nourishing breakfast you will break off into smaller groups or ‘families’ with your assigned facilitators. Each day will be a different experience and each family will experience something different each day. Your facilitators will weave their skills through the group process that emerges within your ‘family’, teasing out hidden dynamics and core erotic themes that can be met and held with love and compassion to help heal and grow.
We then have a delicious lunch and time to rest and integrate. Maybe go for a sleep on any of our 6 hammocks or day beds, talk with new friends, go for a walk in the bush, relax in the hydrotherapy spa or swim in the 15 metre pool or river.
Each afternoon session will be different as we explore bodywork, touch, archetypes, eco-therapy and more.
As the sun sets and the moon rises we will gather for our final meal, before moving back into community and our heart circle. We will each take a moment to check in with ourselves and our processing of the day, sharing what is important to be witnessed and declaring our intentions.
Our evening completes with an erotic ritual in which we can put together all that we have learned and practice what is needed to create a space of safety and healing in the realms of sexuality, sensuality, intimacy and vulnerability.
Then we rest.
Our retreat falls on the full moon of Aries. We will symbolise the qualities of this sign and create our intentions for the retreat and the whole community.
