Talking Helps: The Mankind Project
At various times, I will post available community resources called “Talking Helps” that focus on improving positive and effective communication skills for men and women who walk-the-talk, found in, “Talk to Me: Communication moves to get along with anyone.”
The ManKind Project includes over 25,000 men world-wide who have learned and are continuing to practice skills of emotional literacy, integrity, accountability and honest, direct communication. Men who have experienced the conscious approach to mature masculine development through involvement in The Mankind Project describe:
Breaking through life-long barriers
Connecting to feelings
Journeying from head to heart
Giving up inappropriate dependencies
Discovering true male friendships
Enhancing relationships with women
Becoming better fathers
Learning to accept deep support from men
Looking forward to becoming an elder
Robert Moore, Jungian analyst and author of King, Warrior, Magician, Lover has described the ManKind Project’s work as the single most important opportunity for men who wish to reclaim their mature masculinity.
