The Unmasked Man Recensioni 

The unmasked man has changed my life.
Please do this, you owe it to yourself.
You can't put a price on your health/wellbeing.
I've been empowered to be the man I should be, not the scared boy who was!

I have just got back from the unmasked man retreat. This was incredibly powerful for me, and affected me deeply. To see so many beautiful men being courageous, releasing traumas, wounds, joy, and being vulnerable in such a genuine way was incredible. I was made to feel so safe, loved and welcome by everyone. The leaders showed me a reflection of all the things I want to become, and that I know are already in me, deep down. There were so many profound moments, conversations, exercises, I stood in a circle of everyone and looked them in the eye, saying I am good enough, I am loveable, I am enough. They looked back at me with a look that said yes, you are.

It was so lovely to feel heard, seen, cared for. It brought up all sorts of things. Feelings of being connected and loved but then also at some moments, an inner voice saying I have so far to go, to become who I want to be. To become like those leaders, funny, confident, vulnerable, purpose driven and I know I can do it but it seems like it’s such a long way to go.

I loved the idea of empowering other people and men instead of competing and putting them down. To see even the leaders be vulnerable in front of us really touched me, and seeing that made me realise that when someone is REALLY genuine, sovereign and open, it instantly resonates with me. I really see them and respect them, and am drawn towards them. Compared to someone who says yes to everything, and never sets boundaries. The word sovereign, for some reason really strikes me deep, and makes me emotional, I think because I’ve always held freedom and truth as my core values.

I now have several people I can reach out to and potentially be friends with, and even if it doesn’t work out that way, I have the strength and confidence to reach out and put myself out there, even if I get rejected or they don’t want to be friends with me. I am learning to speak my truth even if no one cares or agrees with me.

I want to include more of this in my work, my videos, and the conversations I have. I want to be more like Josh, relentlessly confident in speaking his truth, taking space, being himself. He shared poetry in such a beautiful way, I could hear the emotion and depth in his voice. To be more like Roberto, with his soul warming empathy and kindness, so humble yet strong also. To be more like Alexander, with his warrior spirit and intuition that seemed to be able to read people and know exactly what to say to really reach them and guide them. I want to be more like Mitchell, so grounded, calm, connected and balanced with a big brother type of energy that knows exactly the right amount to push someone to make a change in themselves without making them too uncomfortable. To be more like Kieran and his ability to inspire and motivate in such an amazing way, while also being able to hold someone as they break down, with such wisdom, kindness and a knowing that on the other side, they’ll be stronger

What I loved possibly the most is the gentle sense within me that this has all been within me the whole time, and somewhere along the way I’d forgotten it, pushed it to one side. Not any more.

It’s hard to put into words how much this retreat has changed me. I am a different person. I am a Man. I have reclaimed my life. I have taken responsibility for my trauma. I am now on the healing path. My friends and family notice these changes in me. This retreat was a major turning point in my life. Alexander and the team at UM are some of the most heart-centred, loving and incredible men I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I feel truly blessed. I have been on the spiritual path since I was 21. I am now 35. In all of the years that I have spent reading countless books, attending yoga classes, being medicated by psychiatrists, paying for psychic readings, having my chakras rebalanced, immersing myself in spiritual communities (the list goes on), I have never grown as much as I have in those 4 days. For a very long time I was bypassing my trauma and my shadow. During the 4 day retreat, I was invited to look at parts of myself that I was totally unaware of. I didn’t want to go there! This is the power of our minds! We repress that which we deem unlovable and do not want to feel! This leads to depression and a whole host of other ineffective coping mechanisms! Facing these parts of ourselves and loving these parts is the real work! Uncomfortable, but ultimately freeing. The staff, their experience in this work, and their passion for helping Men take back control of their lives, provides a truly healing and transformative container. My life has taken off since this retreat. My depression and anxiety has eased. I am confident. I feel strong. I am more in tune with my creative self. Women are more attracted to me! By feeling and letting go of my repressed emotions with the loving support of these Men, I have opened the door to more joy and a lighter state of being. There are other Menswork groups on the market. UM stands out as the best of the best. Quality of accomodation. Attention to detail. The space is beautiful. The course material is refined. The exercises and the group healing activities over the 4 days are set up to enable powerful and life-changing releases, insights and breakthroughs. You are held with so much love, not only by Alexander and the team, but by the other Men in attendance. This is what I love about UM! It is powerful Warrior-led work with Heart! This is truly a safe space to let go. Vulnerability is not only encouraged, but celebrated. The food is delicious. You will meet Men who will become family to you. I now have a brotherhood of Men who I can rely on at times when I truly need them. I call some of these brothers my best friends. The aftercare following the retreat is powerful. Alexander and the team educate the Men by equipping them with the necessary tools and support to assist them with their integration following the retreat. This is pivotal. Thank you Alexander and the team at UM. I thank God for bringing me to you. My family thanks you. I am humbled. If any Man (or loved one of a Man) is thinking about this retreat, I would not only recommend it, but I would encourage you to TAKE THE LEAP OF FAITH! On the other side is freedom! Unfettered freedom! There will be no turning back!

The Unmasked Man appeared in my life exactly when I needed them, when I was ready to move towards this work there they were. The workshop, retreats and 1:1 work that I have completed with them have been life affirming. I found brotherhood and connection which I didn't know I was craving for so deeply.

In the 1:1 sessions with Alexander I felt a sense of ease and safety, like i was being supported by a man who has really done the work. It was apparent to me that he is extremely dedicated and passionate in helping others heal and I felt he understood where I was coming from completely.

The work is challenging and there were many times such as walking into a workshop, driving to the retreat where I was shitting myself. I almost pulled out of the retreat altogether! But I am grateful that I was encouraged to attend as it has been by walking through these many fears that I have been able to find a much more satisfying life for myself.

I would encourage any man who feels dissatisfied with his life in these disconnecting and unreal modern times to take a step into the unknown. Mens work with the Unmasked Man has helped me to develop a more loving sense of myself. I have been able to get in touch with my king, warrior, magician and lover energy which has been amazing.

This work is now a central part of my life. After the retreat I joined an online mens circle ran by Ewan and I find myself with much more support now than when I started this journey. I feel confident that this journey is only just getting started and I am so grateful for this initiation process.

I joined the 1:1 coaching with Alexander after being a bit lost in my life. I didn't really know my purpose and goals, I felt lost and out of balance. Ungrounded and confused.
After our discovery call I immediately understood that I resonated with him. I completely felt held and supported, heard and loved for who I am.
I then went for it, even if it was a big sum for that moment, I decided to embrace it. Money come and go, healing and growing is just something so powerful, I couldn’t let this opportunity of finding someone so caring go. Especially after looking for it for a long time...
During my 12 weeks personal journey (which actually lasted longer than that since it was spread out) I was able to deeper, deeper than I ever thought or imagined.
I was finally able to open the lid to the box that I even felt scared to see, can you imagine OPENING IT? Jeez, that was powerful!!
We touched different topics, starting with the 4 archetypes by C. Jung to father and mother wounds, I won't spoiler more... But every session was really held with such loving and caring energy. I laughed, cried, felt my emotions... I was able to be and talk about it to another man who knows what this is all about, ain't that magical? I felt so guided and safe that this sparked in me a need to move into this work and help other men doing the same.
In fact after my last sesh I started having my men's circle, right here where I live. How cool is that?
I have my mood board I wake up every morning and feel inspired.
Meeting Alexander and working with him was a true blessing. He is such an incredible and humble king, so powerful yet so gentle. The best of Yin & Yang.
I am really happy because I have met a friend who is truly close to me and knows me to my deepest secret and doesn't judge me but welcomes every part of me. This helped see the love for myself I have within and embracing it.

But my experience doesn't stop here, if you are not bored by now, well there's more. :)

I joined the men's circle online held my the amazing Mitchell and boy oh boy! What a powerful time! I also really valued and loved that space, which was special and was coming at the right time every week I had something to share, also the topics, which are super relevant and very well explained. Even there I med amazing soul brothers who shared the deepest shadows and I felt safe to share mine as well.
I just love these guys!!

Then I wasn't happy enough, and decided to join Lv. 2 retreat in the UK. CRAZY!
There's so much to say about this....
I was welcomed by a big, powerful family. Everyone was so kind, and I felt at home right when I landed without knowing anyone. We were a big loving group and I just felt so at ease. I could share anything, and continue my healing journey which, thanks to these guys, skyrocketed! I feel like if I look back I have grown so much and it's all thanks to these amazing men who facilitate and hold space for other men to be vulnerable and share their shadows.

Thank you Alexander, Mitchell, Josh, Kieran, Alex, kitchen crew (the food was so yummy!!!!!)
I can't wait to be back. My life has forever changed and it's all thanks to y'all.

Best investment of my life. Since I go to the unmasked retreat my fears are overcome and joy comes back in my life. I am eternally grateful for this experience and knowledge that has been given to me!

I have attended two retreats in the past five months. Everything listed in the promotional materials was outside my comfort zone which strangely drew me towards them. From the first contact by email the entire experience was life affirming and introduced me to sense of Brotherhood I have never felt before. Meeting all the men that would attend on WhatsApp before the retreats was great so we could all share our feelings going in the retreat. The first retreat was instantly comfortable, and the love and support grew as the days went on. I found the first retreat so life changing that I signed up for the second level right afterwards. I think all men should be able to experience the knowledge that is shared by Mitch, Alexander, Josh and all the Team, and the Brotherhood and caring that develops and carries on after the retreat. I can't wait to attend the next level retreat!

I did the 1:1 programm with Alexander and I participated till that point at three retreats.

I will come back because I notice the changes in my life that happened thanks to the work I did together with Alexander in the 1:1 Coaching and the team on the retreats.
I feel more in my power and I feel more and more my true masculine energy. I stopped hiding and started to show more and more what I have within me.

I love that work and I can highly recommend to at least try it out to get a feeling for it. Because you have to feel it to understand it.

Cheers Brothers

Before coming to this I was completely unaware of what I was going to experience. What I did experience opened my eyes, my mind and my spiritual energy. From the moment I met Mitchell and Alexander, as well as the other facilitators, I felt the loving energy, the brotherhood. It was an amazing few days where I was able to learn on a deeper level who I was and why I would do the things I did. It was so empowering to be around this energy and sharing my vulnerabilities with the other brothers for 4 days! I absolutely loved it! It's totally pushed me to continue this self development and inner work to live my truest self, to be able to express it openly and show it to the others I love in my life. Thank you so much for bringing this amazing experience into men's lives! I hope this love spreads more and more :)

What an amazing 4 days and 3 nights with Alexander, Mitchell and their incredible Unmasked Man team in a beautiful house and Retreat Centre in the middle of the beautiful Dorset countryside. Every man should go through this process, you will be given expert tools and support to guide you through processing past traumas and work through the main male archetypes. By recognising these you will become more aware of how you exhibit them and be given tools to help you become a better and stronger person, for yourself and also for your partner and family. You will form strong bonds with the other men by journeying through this truly life changing process. I cannot recommend The Unmasked Man team more highly. If you want a taster of their retreats they visit most major spiritual festivals throughout the year and run 2 hour workshops. You can only benefit from these amazing men's skills, compassion and support. This should be part of every college curriculum when a student turns 18.

Beautiful and transformational, safe and professional. Alexander and Mitch are hugely loveable masters of their craft. The four archetypes and their shadows provide a timeless structure for the four days. Anger and grief work, catalysed by breathwork and many beautiful surprises, create the opportunity to go real deep. Rage to tears, grief to reconciliation, heart-opening to deep connection. I arrived apprehensive but left happy, tender and alive; connected back to my purpose, with a renewed vision of who I can be.

(p.s. if you have done the Hoffman Quadrinity process, this won't disappoint)

Such a transformational experience with a group of guys who became brothers and lifelong friends.
I had so many breakthroughs and have come home feeling lighter and more energised for my life and relationships.

I met Alexander and Mitchell at the Love Jam Festival and I immediately felt that they are very special. Then they invited me for their next retreat. I decided to go and I was not disappointed. the place is beautiful with everything you could wish for, the facilitators are caring and the program goes deep. the professionalism with which Alexander and Mitchell do this wonderful work is absolutely amazing! It is basically a safe men’s space where you can be vulnerable and open up yourself for introspection. It can become very emotional and intense, but this is intended. After that weekend, I felt exhausted from all the work done, but also empowered and on a new level in my life. I am very, very grateful for the incredible, almost super human love, care, guidance which I have experienced from Mitchell and Alexander. Aho!

I have tried writing this review a number of times. Due to a lack of words, I am struggling to best explain how powerful of an experience this weekend was. I seem to have left a lot of emotional baggage over that weekend. Stuff I had been carrying for over 2 decades that was hanging around like a dark cloud above my head.

Quicks summary -
The facilitators were incredible.
The other Men/participants were integral and was an absolute pleasure spending the weekend with everyone of them.
The food was amazing and never short of supply.
The concept and execution was solid.
the accommodation was clean and comfortable.

Honestly it's hard to put this experience into words. I was apprehensive about going because its not something I would usually do but my decision to push through and attend anyway was one of the best decisions Ive ever made. The facilitators, the space, the program, the support: everything was curated perfectly to facilitate what felt like a tailor made transformational healing experience for each participant. If you are a man struggling with feelings of shame, unresolved trauma and insecurity, in a way that may be preventing you from achieving your full potential, then I couldn't recommend this experience highly enough.

Excellent well crafted and facilitated men's weekend. This is about leaning into vulnerability, feeling the edge and coming out with courage and openness. As other reviewers have said this can achieve over a few days more than many years of therapy.

Where do I begin? Quite honestly I feel that the Unmasked Man retreat was a total game changer for me.
I never realised just how powerful and integral it is to feel 100% safe around other men, to go deep, to explore and share things about myself that I would be unable to share with even my best friend, I feel 50kg lighter ever since!
Alexander and Mitchell are two of the most genuine and kind-hearted warriors I’ve ever met, the way this retreat was structured creates nothing less than absolute strength and safety amongst the men in the group, with no man left behind, a real tribe of kings.
The venue is also a beautiful place of retreat, rest and recuperation with beautiful surrounding forests to explore.
I am inspired in so many ways following this retreat, and I will most certainly be looking into doing more of the work from the Unmasked Man
Thank you Alexander from the bottom of my heart.
Aho

Wow what a weekend. Alexander and Mitchell have truly created a life changing experience. Highly recommended for all Men seeking to better themselves.

Top experience with great facilitators who really have the experience for you to have a breakthrough.

Alex is a masterful coach.
He held me throughout the programme with a deeply loving, compassionate energy, with both empathy & a firmness. This allowed me to explore & journey through the programme gaining deep insight & clarity.
A truly life enhancing journey.
So grateful for his time & energy, and the deep gift of being guided into my deeper self.
A powerful experience & an amazingly well curated container.
Gratitude !
