Robert commentary (after the workshop in June 2014)

Gentlemen,

Thanks for sharing experiences after the workshop, I am adding my ones.
I also feel stronger, I have a sense of inner support and I look for it less outside myself.
There is easier for me in contact with other men, I am now more natural than before the workshop.
I am more determined and less analyse internally already taken decisions.
I finished a few minor issues which should be completed for a long time and the next few ones I am going to complete in the near future. I resonate with Tom words very much, that we can only betray ourselves. Well, I am going to complete what I started and enjoy it.
I have the impression, as Slawek, that my voice changed to a deeper, slightly lower, now I also like more it.
When I returned, my friend asked me: “what happened on these workshops”. I replied: “I will not tell you, because it’s men’s workshop”, what she replied to: “Oh, that is how you need to treat a woman!”, she was very glad.
Unfortunately, I caught a disease that has intensified over the weekend, so I did not speak up in the meeting matter. I have already recovered. Perhaps it was a transitory effect of difficult decision I made, but it was definitely the only way I could be honest with myself.
I do breathing and energy exercises which Tom taught us , I like them very much. We can practice them practically everywhere, I like doing these exercises in buses.
I hope that these positive changes are permanent.

kind regards,
Robert

The commentary of Michael (after the workshop in April 2016)

Dear Friends,

I would like to share with you something important for me.
In mid-April of this year, I took part in the Men’s Workshop, which led Tom De Winter. I am impressed by the benefits that now I collect. And I feel this is just the beginning. I was touched the most by the initiation on the workshop. That is what is missing in Europe. Men are brought up by their mothers. I felt like a boy taken into the unknown. As the young Indian who is cared by his tribe. They are taken at the age of about twelve from the mother and then this man is ready at the age of eighteen to start a family. When I was eighteen years old, I was ready to start a family etc. Although I am now thirty years old, I do not feel ready yet to start a family but I feel closer to this, I feel more myself, my masculine energy.
Thanks to himself and everyone connected with it :):
Janusz Pietrzak, Tomasz Szczepanowski, Tadeusz Kuropatwiński
Thank you friends 🙂
I invite all sentient a Call and adolescent men in these difficult, European conditions for the Tom’s Workshop.

The commentary of Lucas (after the workshop in June 2014)

Greetings my brothers,

The workshop gave me inner strength, peace and confidence. I completed some kind of gap within myself, I boosted my male energy, I came back to eatrh in relation to myself and other men. Coming for the workshop was one of the best decisions that I made. And although the impact with reality was difficult, I do not regret anything. I feel that I returned to “the internal home.” I’m relieved. Thank you with all my heart.
I am also pleased that after the workshop I have already met with £ukasz and with his 3 year old son we played and talked on the playground for 3 hours. Great time. And together with Martin – we drank a beer and talked as the most real brothers – with respect, joy. We are strong. It works. We can help each other in our lives. I am delighted such contacts.

I have proposed, for example, to create a group on Facebook for us. Only authentic men. We can contact, arrange meetings and trips, share information, reflections. What do you thinka bout it?

In the fraternal embrace – I greet you all !!!

So:

Is there anything else in the relationship with your partner / children / parents after more than five months of your participation in the men’s workshop?

1. CHILDREN: I feel a huge emotional responsibility in relation to children. I take myself by surprise that I am so sensitive and aware of my own role. I discovered new resource of love for children.
2. MEN: I stopped being afraid of guys. I am open to getting to know them. Censorship disappeared in me, that when dealing with men, someone will accuse me of being gay. Now I treat men as “brothers.” I learned to look them in the eyes, understand and listen. I fancy more to make friends with them now.
3. WOMEN: I feel that they are from “another planet.” However, I treat them as “partners” and not someone “worse”, someone who is “below”. I started to listen to them, I’m empathetic. Women attract me even more now.

What is your inner feeling in relation to your masculanity?

I WITH MYSELF: I am much calmer. I feel more masculine, mature, responsible. I also feel an inner confidence and strength. I feel this to be an exceptional guy. I have become more intelligent and independent. I like my body and my voice even more. I have more energy. I can feel their psychophysical individuality against women. I can and want to spend time alone. I also know that I am able to use my physical strength to defend myself, children, women and others who need it.
HOW OTHERS PERCEIVE ME? : Masculine, organised, soulful, mature, sensible, wise, “bigger”, more handsome, more attractive, changed.
