GREEN MAN Sacred Rewilding Retreat Texas

Gather in a circle of brotherhood around the sacred fire for a day of shared drumming, dance, chant, poetry, and storytelling beside the exuberant Pedernales River. Come engage in a unique communal exploration of the rewilded male, together discovering how to uncoil from societal domestication and lean into a more enlivened, embodied, heart-opened way as men. No special qualifications or prior experience necessary, just the heart's natural longing and the soul's deep hunger.

Timothy P. McLaughlin is a poet, speaker, and ceremonialist. He served many years in Native education and founded an indigenous youth spoken word program featured in the New York Times and on the PBS NewsHour. Raised with Catholicism, he has followed a traditional Lakota spiritual path since early manhood. Much of his creative work is done in the wild; he is the author of the poetry collection, Rooted & Risen, and his second book of poems is due for release in July 2019. McLaughlin is best known for his powerful style of embodied poetry recitation. He and his wife, singer Madi Sato, are co-directors of PRAISING EARTH, an organization devoted to re-rooting oral traditions in modern culture and rewilding the human heart and voice.
