CONSCIOUS MEN’S CIRCLE AT SODERWORLD
Hosted by Chahé and Eric Soderholm

Our troubled society has been pushing men towards a subtle, unique type of emotional isolation. Often times men don’t feel comfortable talking about their lives or how they feel about things that are happening. Even guys that are self-aware and more open-minded have trouble sharing in this way.
And this becomes a problem because when a guy faces the unavoidable adversities of life, much like the current times, they realize that they don’t have many healthy outlets. This creates a lot of pressure so guys eventually burn out, blow up or meltdown.

Instead of this route, we choose to meet in private where we won’t be scrutinized for being honest, vulnerable or supportive with one another. Our circle is a group of conscious men committed to supporting each other in living out our purpose. We meet once a month at SoderWorld Wellness Center in the yoga studio or outside around a fire.

The goal of this group is to provide a safe and confidential space for men to vent, rant, reminisce, tell stories, ask for advice or just enjoy some male bonding. Come join our community of seekers helping amplify our collective masculine energies together.
Feel free to bring food and beverages to snack on.

This is a male only event. It is a non-denominational gathering which focuses on the light and the shadow work of the divine masculine. There is no affiliation with any particular tradition or religion. The intent is to create a sacred space for men to come together and heal together. Disruptive, aggressive or angry energy towards other members will not be tolerated.
Come with love and brotherhood in your hearts.

Date: 3rd Monday night of every month

Time: 7-9pm

COST: LOVE donations

TONIGHT!! Only a few spots left!

Hallowed Bones: DOUBLE GONG Immersion with Chahé Soderholm & Special Guest Ronald Gong

Rooted in the profound Zen Buddhist philosophy of being a 'Hollow Bone,' where the self becomes a conduit for the divine, "Hallowed Bones" transforms this concept into a sacred, musical form.
In this hallowed (holy) space, every note and rhythm is an act of reverence, creating a sanctuary where sound and spirit converge. "Hallowed Bones" offers an immersive guided sonic experience unlike any other, blending the primal power of native shamanic instruments with the expansive possibilities of modern tones and frequencies.
Experience the resonating depths of Gongs, the heartbeat rhythm of Shamanic Drums, and the soul-stirring vibrations of the Didgeridoo. Let the intertwining Voices and Toning transport you to a realm of inner peace and cosmic connection, harmonizing with healing instruments from across the globe.

About the Facilitators:

"Hallowed Bones" is more than a musical project; it's a journey to the core of your being, a sacred echo resonating in the hollow of your bones, inviting you to experience the divine through the universal language of music. Join us in this unique fusion, where ancient rhythms meet contemporary sounds, and embark on a voyage that promises to nourish the soul and awaken the spirit.

Chahé Chüwa is an artist, musician, minister, breath & sound facilitator and co-founder and executive director at SoderWorld Body, Mind and Spirit Sanctuary. Chahé is a multi-instrumentalist and sound enthusiast who applies his knowledge of music production to create an immersive sonic experience both recorded and LIVE.
