Apprenticeship to Love, the book, here

If you've come across my various posts you may have noticed that I'm writing a book. In chapters. Sent 2-3 times a week to my "1000 early readers" list. If you'd like to be on that list (it's free) and learn more about how I am learning about love and especially as I am learning about myself as a masculine-identified man loving a feminine-identified woman... Join me me here: apprenticeshiptolove.com

ALWAYS THIS: HOW AM I STANDING IN THE WAY OF LOVE? —Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation, Inspirations, and Practices for the Sacred Masculine March 25 • Today’s questions are every day’s questions: How does my body open to love? How does my body close to love? • Today I am teaching two classes for lovers. My focus will be on helping them to diminish themselves, to reduce themselves, that the truth of their hearts shines more brightly, for themselves, for the one they love. 🌀Now, the practice of yoga begins. (Patanjali, Yoga Sutra 1.1) … for more of these #apprenticeshiptolove chapters (& to bypass the $100 annual fee ) please email me at [email protected] ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ #pathofthesacredmasculine #husbandman #authenticrelationships #love #commitment #nervoussystem #devotion #surrender #vulnerability #trauma #nervoussystemtraining #patience #masculine #menshealth #marriage #relationships #trust #herosjourney #sacredmasculine #menswork #SACREDSEX #presence #wild #sacrifice #husband #shiva #shakti #women #death https://www.instagram.com/p/CqOJsfApdzf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

TRUST THIS TENDERNESS—Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation, Inspirations, and Practices for the Sacred Masculine March 21 • * NOTE: Join me March 22 at 11:30am Pacific time when I host a conversation with Kimberly Ann Johnson about “Women’s Trauma, Sex, Healing (for men).” Register at sacredbodies.ca/events * Today’s question: How does my body want to flow?

I SEE YOU, I HEAR YOU, I HOLD YOU —Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation, Inspirations, and Practices for the Sacred Masculine March 20 • For today’s meditation and practice subscribe on Substack or save $100 and email me at [email protected] TODAY’S INSPIRATIONS 🌀 A good man understands that desire cannot be relieved nor eradicated. Knowing this, he stops trying to fill the hole in his heart, and embraces the feeling instead. He realizes that it's his eternal yearning that wakes him up in the morning--that mobilizes his limbs into action, that motivates him to take charge and make change, and drives him towards his life's deepest purpose. He learns to love the hole inside of his heart instead of needing to fill it. … The secret to mastering desire is to love what is. Love her as she is. Love yourself as you are. Love what is, exactly as it is. Stoke the flames of your desire, but free yourself from attachment to the objects themselves. Transform your desire into passion by channelling it into that which you already have. And use it to forge a lasting connection with the person you love, that supports you in becoming the man you must before you die. To love what is, is to surrender. And man would rather die than surrender. It's for this very reason that surrender is the highest virtue of man. (Justin Patrick Pierce, The Dragon of Sexual Desire) 🌀...no matter what you do, you don't feel comfortable. (Guru Singh & Guruperkarma Kaur @gurusinghyogi ) 🌀But you see me, you hear me, you know me. (My beloved, my Oracle & Siren) ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ #pathofthesacredmasculine #husbandman #authenticrelationships #love #commitment #nervoussystem #devotion #surrender #vulnerability #warrior #nervoussystemtraining #patience #masculine #menshealth #marriage #relationships #trust #confidence #gardenoflove #herosjourney #sacredmasculine #menswork #SACREDSEX #presence #wild #sacrifice #husband #shiva #shakti #apprenticeshiptolove https://www.instagram.com/p/CqBQ4KmvJQ5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

THE WORK IS THE RECEIVING —Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation, Inspirations, and Practices for the Sacred Masculine March 18 • Recognize that the other person is you. (Aquarian Sutra 1) • The work isn’t going to men’s groups, or doing practices, or therapy. That’s important. But it’s just preparation for the work. The work is receiving. (paraphrasing Shaun Cooke) • ...no matter what you do, you don't feel comfortable. Being at this level of awareness is very risky...you’re set up for intense disapproval that cuts away at your confidence and disrupts the determination to actually live up to and fulfill your destiny. …(Guru Singh & Guruperkarma Kaur) • To read the full #apprenticeshiptolove chapters please subscribe on Substack or email me at [email protected] ps.

THIS LEGACY OF LOVE—Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation, Inspirations, and Practices for the Sacred Masculine March 15 • Eddies of doubt, of inconfidence swirl through me. Let them swirl! Let them move! They serve to remind me of the importance of my practice, of this legacy I leave, trusting only in her radiance, Her flow. Trusting only in this space I create to hold it all, to feel it all, to know beyond knowing. TODAY’S INSPIRATIONS 🌀 …create a world you want to leave for the generations to come, and make this your raison d'être. (Guru Singh & Guruperkarma Kaur) 🌀The Conscious Warrior makes death an ally, using it to sharpen his present actions, future plans, and current state of being. (John Wineland , Precept 11) 🌀You deserve nothing.

SHE CALLS ME WITH HER SACRIFICE —Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation, Inspirations, and Practices for the Sacred Masculine March 12 •There is, again, anger in the streets, but especially on social media, as young men blame women for so many things they think they deserve. Among them: sex, money, purpose. But our sense of entitlement —“our,” because I too was once a young man who took what I wanted, what I believed, without thinking, that the world, this life, offered me— our sense of entitlement is just one of the many, but perhaps most painful, for others, stage we must grow through. To realize this: I deserve nothing. You deserve nothing. Except this: the opportunity to serve something greater than ourselves. And, if we’re lucky, we understand that that something bigger isn’t a leader or a god or even a “purpose.” That something is love. And we are guided to that understanding by shame, regret, by a willingness to learn from & through mistakes honest and less-than honest… • For more of today’s #apprenticeshiptolove chapter please subscribe on Substack or email me at [email protected] ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ #pathofthesacredmasculine #husbandman #authenticrelationships #love #commitment #nervoussystem #devotion #surrender #vulnerability #warrior #nervoussystemtraining #masculine #menshealth #marriage #relationships #trust #confidence #failure #shame #herosjourney #sacredmasculine #menswork #SACREDSEX #presence #wild #sacrifice #husband #shiva #shakti https://www.instagram.com/p/CpsrAnhvUJF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

LOVE & BEAUTY. GUARANTEED —Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation, Inspirations, and Practices for the Sacred Masculine March 7 • Can you feel it? I can. So near. In my yearning I know its presence. Yet, in my yearning I deny its presence. The ocean of love that moves through me & around me, touching me & everyone & everything —and still it ebbs as I reach out to take it into my grasp. Not to be held, tightly. • For more of today’s #apprenticeshiptolove chapter please subscribe on Substack or email me at [email protected] TODAY’S INSPIRATIONS 🌀To deeply meet one another in sacred intimacy lovers must first deeply feel one another. (Simaya Priya) 🌀 Becoming a devotee of life's guaranteed destiny brings fulfillment and meaning to make each breath worthwhile. Our prayer is that you are devoted. (Guru Singh & Guruperkarma Kaur) 🌀Now, the practice of yoga begins. (Patanjali, Yoga Sutra 1.1) 🌀And you, you see me. You hear me. You know me.

BRITTLE BREAKS US ALL—Apprenticeship to Love: Daily Meditation, Inspirations, and Practices for the Sacred Masculine March 6 • Rules. Laws. Codes and contracts. Beautiful things we’ve created to protect ourselves from the river of always-changing that flows through our lives. Sometimes, in fact, these delicate instruments protect the weakest & most vulnerable. Too often, they shield privileges, impervious to tenderness & need. A husband, a brother, a son, a father I’ve known myself brittle with rules, painful to those who needed my own tenderness to hold theirs. And so today I practice. To be still and solid. Deep enough that my mountain roots aren’t shaken as her river surges through me. • Thank you for reading. The full chapter of today’s #apprenticeshiptolove is available on Substack.
