The weekend intensive retreat, facilitated by M3 founder, author, artist, and psychologist Dr. Ed Adams, is designed to help us rediscover the myth, mystery, and magic within ourselves and the natural world. Through the use of sharing in small and large groups, visual media, laughter, and personal time to reflect, participants will develop the self-awareness and skills that enable a greater degree of inner harmony.
Our Annual Intensive is May 20-22. Click on the flyer for more details
I think there’s a misunderstanding about anger among men. There’s being angry or being with anger.

Since joining in 2005, M3 has helped me in many ways:
Upon reflection, and writing these notes this morning, my M3 journey has been built upon the implementation of the 5 C’s from Ed Adams’ book: Curiosity, Compassion, Courage, Commitment and Connection

Along with the brotherhood, friendships, support, and the opportunity to talk about the important things in your life, M3 believes in having fun and being a good community citizen.
Self-doubt, incomplete, inadequate, shameful, lonely… the list can go on! These are the feelings that circled my mind and continued to show up at various times in my life.
When a man is considering joining a M3 group, each member who is at the biweekly meeting of the existing group is typically asked to share ‘their story’ for a couple of minutes.
Stepping back to my initial months of M3 meetings I was often struck by how freely a group of men shared how they felt. I always considered myself to be pretty open with my own feelings, but never did I experience such a free-flowing exchange between guys.
Men Mentoring Men is a long-term experiment, with men who are healthy and searching for more meaning, connection, and growth in their lives. Men join us for multiple reasons, whether they are looking for a connection with other men, or are going through tough experiences as their relationships or jobs change, they age, or their personal thinking evolves.
