Toronto Men’s Group - Announcement

You are invited to join The Toronto Men's Group, which will focus on personal development as it relates to being an authentic man. Our focus will be to develop our inner creativity, become more self aware, responsible, self-actualizing and to nurture loving, healthy relationships. Our group will create space for you to freely express yourself and your feelings without judgment.

This is a your opportunity to get involved in a dynamic group of like-minded men. We will also be focusing on unfinished business, which is defined as the unexpressed feelings that are associated with distinct memories and fantasies. These feelings may be resentment, rage, hatred, pain, anxiety, grief, guilt, and abandonment that are not fully experienced in awareness, linger in the background, and are carried into the present life and cause preoccupations, compulsive behaviors, wariness, and other self-defeating behaviors. Unfinished business persists until the person faces and deals with these denied or alienated feelings.

Note: There is also a coaching group with men and women forming which you are also invited to. For more information go to: http://giantstepscoaching.com/coachinggroup.html

Format: The Toronto Men’s Group meets every other Wednesday evening from 7:30 - 9:30 pm, near Casa Loma in Toronto. http://goo.gl/JpYUl
