A decade ago, Dhyana and I were experiencing a difficult time. We were new parents, navigating life with a toddler. We were blessed to own a cozy one bedroom apartment but it was too small for four of us to grow in and due to the bursting real estate bubble we couldn’t sell the place at a profit. We needed to move and thoughts of having to short sell our home filled my mind and worried me. Our immediate future was uncertain. And our marriage was in crisis...

by Fred Kluth Moving into this new moon cycle has been all about releasing and emptying what has come to the surface from the hidden depths. The journey here has been an emotional one, faced with uncomfortable mirrors on the outside and disquieting questions of judgement on the inside. I have struggled in the past with feelings of rage, self-worth and questioned my ability to be enough. I have felt the familiar feeling that there is an elusive unknown code that I need to decipher. If I do all these certain steps, in this exact right order, then the universe will reward me. I attribute this experience as a result from being raised in the United States of America, steeped in the hidden systemic belief that some people are more deserving than others.

~by Fred Kluth It’s easy to be removed from my feelings. It’s not easy for me to access the currents of emotion that are constantly coursing through me. I sit on a bridge and watch them flow underneath me. I can poke at them, analyze their temperature and their flows, all without sticking a toe in the water to experience them. It’s safe on the bridge. Removed from the things, there I can analyze, examine, measure. But not flowing with it. Not allowing myself to get caught up in the currents and the passions of my life force. Watching it all go by day after day...
Helping Men Embrace Their Spirituality And Heal From Deep Trauma ~by Fred Kluth When I was 16, I was assaulted and my girlfriend at the time was in a great danger at the time of being raped. I share this intense story in this podcast I recorded recently (link to listen below). This experience was not only deeply traumatic to me but also sparked a deeper path of spiritual discovery in my life and a quest to be healed.
~by Dhyana Kluth On Valentine’s Day, Fred and I joined Lorraine Giordano on her show, The Womb Happy Hour, for a deep discussion about the healing work we’ve been doing and the journey it has taken us on. We talk about what Womb and Hara Awakening is and how transformative it has been for us, personally. Womb and Hara in Sacred Union: Co-Creating Sacred Relationships with Womb Awakening ~by Fred Kluth Lately I have been stretching outside my comfort zone. When doing men’s work we often challenge each other with a stretch goal. What can you do to push yourself past your comfort zone in order to achieve something in your life or even even sometimes more difficult, make a deeper connection with your partner?
