The World Is As You
DREAM IT  
Gay-Centered Inner Work

________________________________________

For GAY MEN OF COLOR
Small 4-person group settings.
Initial interview required.

"Sometimes when you look
at yourself,  you see the way
things are.

And sometimes when you look
at yourself, you see the way
that things can be."


Transforming The Way
You View Yourself, Your
Loved Ones and The World

________________________________________

Each week three Men, plus
Paul Chirumbolo, come together
holding sacred space for one another,
exploring inner realms and states
of being, issues of:

  • Identity
  • Life Experience
  • Healing
  • Self-Knowledge
  • and Growth.
Through dreamwork, readings,
native ritual and experiential encounters, you will embark on a journey of renewal and healing en route to transformation, moving through and beyond the experiences of cultural
and sexual identity.

You'll be met with insight about
patterns and outlooks. As you are,
you will be asked to reveal information about the material which surfaces - the hopes, fears, questions and conflicts of your life.

Each group member holds space
for one another as a confidential, safe and supportive environment as you begin to envision a new reality, away from what was taught by parents, teachers, community, and friends. What you'll find is the ever living inner memory of something else: inner sources of wisdom and power, a more passionate expression of your
own unique nature, and with that, a fuller experience of life.

This work draws upon tenets of Jungian psychology, native healing practices, principles of cultural relativism, and
Gay-Centered Inner Work. It is highly effective when given consistent, ongoing attention.


The World Is As You Dream it
invites you to
join in with the re-creation.
