poltr1Got this from the MKP Center Director in Kentucky via one of the Project-wide Leaders in Indianapolis. This is worth passing on! (And I have the OK to do so.) I wouldn't be recommending this training if I hadn't already gone through it, which I did 7 years ago. Interested? Want to know more? Post comments. -Jim
Brothers,
This is about a Therapist in Houston who is very strongly supports our NWTAs, by including us in a section in her book and getting men to our Trainings.
Her name is Patti Henry and her book is The Emotionally Unavailable MAN - A Blueprint for Healing. It is available through Borders Books and on Amazon.com. Her website is patti-henry.com.
In her email to me she says, "I believe, deep in my soul, that if we do not heal men, we cannot heal families, and we MUST heal families and the children to heal the world." [Emphasis mine.] She has given us written permission to quote her anywhere we choose.
Patti has given me renewed energy to continue to raise the awareness of the incrediable value of our New Warrior Training Adventure.
In service,

Suggestion 8: Do a New Warrior Weekend
The New Warrior Training Adventure is part of The Mankind Project, an international movement to help men. It is a weekend spent with a group of men working to get reconnected to their emotions and their personal power. It is a weekend which begins with a group of men all as apprehensive about the idea as you are. It's a group of men who think, "What am I doing here?" the same as you will. That's NORMAL. Feel the fear and do it anyway. You will be working with expeienced staff who will help you. You are going there to learn something new. Don't expect yourself to know how to do the activities ahead of time. Give yourself some space to learn. The only requirement for a successful weekend is willingness, openness. It will stretch your comfort zone limits which, of course, is never comfortable in the beginning, but very rewarding once it's done.
In general, men I ask to do a New Warrior weekend come back more alive. They are more connected to their feelings and their "life force." They are more comfortable with themselves. They report being glad they went. Give it a go. It's only one weekend of your life. What have you got to lose - besides your fear? I highly recommend this. IF YOU FOLLOW THROUGH WITH NO OTHER SUGGESTION IN THIS BOOK, DO THIS. Since this is an international organization, they can be readily be found via their website: www.newwarrior.com.
