Braveheart Men’s Circle

Many of us were never taught how to be with our emotions, communicate honestly, receive support, or build meaningful relationships with other men. This circle exists to practice those skills together.

This is a place to bring whatever is true for you - grief, joy, fear, uncertainty, celebration, or play. You are not expected to have it all figured out. You are invited to show up authentically, listen openly, share what is real, and meet others with curiosity and care.

What This Men's Group Offers

Core Skills We'll Practice:
Intimacy: Can I let myself be seen?
Emotional Intelligence: What am I feeling?
Somatics: What is happening in the body?
Presence: Can I be here now?

Formats:
We will often do “circle work” or a group sharing format but circles may include the following formats:

Journaling and Reflective Exercises, Open Sharing, Group Feedback, Group Counsel, Community Singing, Grief Work, Vision Boarding, Prayer, Authentic Relating Exercises, Appreciation Practices, Intimacy Practices, Group Meditation

“Men who are interested in participating in groups that Nils facilitates should know that the container is capable of holding weight. It's not a space where you come to mask although you’re welcome to.. it's a space where you come to try on vulnerability and see that there’s room to be loved.

I think we all hold onto complexes around masculinity and ideas about what being a man is; with these groups, you get to find out what the core qualities are of your masculinity instead of leaning on ideas about it.”
