Brother, are you ready to free yourself?

The modern man seeks purpose, connection and freedom, but the modern world doesn’t make it easy to find these things inside or outside.

The Roots is for men who know in their bones and blood there is much more to life than: “Work, eat, sleep and repeat.”

It’s for men who long for purpose, connection, and freedom.

The only way to grow is to reach the root of the problems holding us back, to bring awareness, to feel what was unfelt, and to choose a new way of living as a man.

“An opportunity to work through all the obstacles and the barriers that prevent us from being fully alive. ”

Graham Gough

Ready to unleash your full potential?

Deep within every man resides the potential to create the life their most authentic self desires.

For most men, this potential is hiding behind addictions, depression, bad habits and limiting beliefs.

No amount of hustling, grinding, pretending, bypassing, or escaping can overcome these problems. Only by going inward and facing the root of these problems can we begin to move forward with freedom.

The Roots is designed to assist you in releasing these trapped emotions to allow them to be expressed, processed, and accepted for your highest good.

Doing this with a tribe of like-minded brothers is a life-changing experience, allowing you to reconnect with your true potential with courageous men on the same path.

An embodied experience

This 4-day training focuses on three core principles dynamically applied throughout.

Find what’s holding you back

The things holding us back in life are often deeply rooted in emotionally turbulent experiences from our past.

You’ll be guided through workshops that will help you to connect with these core wounds within us all.

Heal wounded parts

You’ll learn and embody shamanic, somatic and scientific tools to allow your subconscious mind & body to heal these emotional wounds.

These parts of the journey are well supported, you are in safe hands.

Step into your potential

As you heal the wounds that are holding you back, naturally, you will begin to activate more of your potential.

You’ll take the tools and relationships you built back into your life.

Welcome to your home for the next 4 days:

Earth Spirit Center

Just five miles from Glastonbury, on the edge of Compton Dundon village in Somerset, EarthSpirit lies within Avalon’s ‘temenos’ (sacred enclosure).

The centre is situated in a beautiful landscape between two nature reserves, just two minutes walk from St Andrew's church, which has a yew tree of 1,800 years old within its cemetery. The seventeenth-century farm buildings have been restored and specially converted for use as a venue. They are set within seven acres of fields and gardens.

The complex is based around a converted 52' (15.5m) long barn, with oak timbers, reed torching (lining the inside of the roof), and stone walls. The feeling is medieval but with modern comforts such as under-floor heating and a large wood stove. The high roof and skylights create a light, airy atmosphere.
