*INNER WORK ESSENTIALS - TEACHING INTENTIONS & STATEMENT OF DIRECTION* 1) Provide the student with an informed and representative overview of multiple complementary therapeutic modalities to support their self-healing process; with special encouragement placed upon the auto-therapeutic application of holistic healing modalities for particular problems at particular stages in their journey. 2) Nourish the intellectual and spiritual maturation of the student by familiarising them with the most exciting, challenging and credible concepts in developmental psychology, consciousness studies and transpersonal metaphysics; with central emphasis being placed upon comparative analysis of multiple complex theories. 3) Encourage an empowered and more authentic sense of individual self-expression as a combined outcome of the two previous intentions, plus the application of holistic lifestyle principles, self-educational practises, and foundational healthy habits. *EXPECTED LEARNING OUTCOMES (what you'll get from these videos)* *On completion of this series, the student should expect to be:* 1) Auto-therapeutic. The student will feel generally competent in their ability to select and self-administer the most suitable therapeutic modality on a full-spectrum basis: ranging from the somatic resolution of central childhood wounds to the everyday self-regulation of symptomatic stress responses such as anxiety and addiction. 2) Closer towards baseline integral consciousness (Wilber). Through their combined efforts of rigorous self-inquiry and critical engagement with recommended reading material, the student will have significantly developed their intellectual and spiritual maturity to a noticeable degree, in likely correlation with their depth of engagement. 3) Holistically Empowered. The student will enjoy a meaningful expansion of their physical, emotional, sexual, and creative expression as a result of their healing and expansion work. In short, they will be healthier, happier and feel more complete. 4) Self-educational. The student will have felt organically inspired to move beyond free video content and create a self-structured learning arc which takes maximum advantage of at least several dozen inner working books mentioned within the course. The student will consequently enjoy lifelong learning habits including: critical research skills, long-term focus, and the ability to know when to stop studying.

Going step by step, without skipping the necessary healing of our early trauma, is essential. Thanks for helping us ground our perspective and appreciate the beautiful complexity of this model of the masculine archetypes. Nice hat btw.

This is the first video I watched on your channel, after putting in the title of the book you mention in the video. As a woman who cannot relate to any of the female archetypes of mother, crone, maiden, even witch, etc, I listened to my inner girl (who was naturally in touch with her masculine energy before entering the so-called civilised world) and began reading about male archetypes. I find myself resonating with the warrior and the lover, a warrior-lover, a samurai. :) Very relieving to my spirit, but I do not quite know how to relate to both men and women now 🤔. Lots of gratitude, love and power to you Jordan. 🕯

Jordan, your insights are becoming such an organic part of my life that I forgot that the recommendation for this book came from you -- after reading it I wanted to see if there were some discussions on KZfaq, and here I am once more, I've come full circle. Rewatching this after having read the book, dreamed it and tried to integrate the wisdom it contains is doubly valuable. That says enough about the depth of your understanding, and the masterful way in which your videos can serve both as introductions and as further food for thought. Thanks for everything you're doing!

Watching those subscriber numbers climb. Well deserved. Thank you so much for your videos.

I have begun a regular daily meditation regime to not eradicate trauma but balance it to a more comfortable state rather than completely negative.

Your perfectly chosen examples triggered some warm and good tears! I couldn't have chosen better ones to model healthy masculinity, indeed! Thank you for your terrific content! 🙏💙👏

BLESSED BE THE ALGORITHMS❣☺🔥

How very interesting. In fact the Tarot cards show the exact same initiatic path, both for feminine and masculine energies. The page or prince energy is not full blown adult male energy. Possibly that is why it is not included in the book. There is an initiation happening in childhood, and then there is a continuation of that process in harnessing the 4 male archetypes. Thank you! I will read this book.

Robert Moore I enjoy. Moore has another book, archetype of Initiation which is just a collection of his prime lectures.Topics of yours are pleasing to the ear.

Deep🙏🏼☺️ I'm going to be honest I haven't finished it just yet but I'm coming back to this video in ASAP it's so necessary!!!

Quality of this video is top notch 👌

Just read it now trying to implement it

Wow, your channel makes me feel good and your energy is really nice. Gives me a lot of hope and inspiration! Also, I love this for men - do they have a feminine version (other than the newer new agey stuff that's being published) and can you please do a book haul video!!!??!?!! (like your fav books, all kinds of books - your book nerd audience wants a library tour :))

New to the channel and thoroughly enjoying your content.

Brilliant thanks Jordan

Nice Work

Beautiful! More women should pay attention to this. Our internal image of masculine principles is completely broken. I've been convinced for a while now that things are much harder for man in matters of healing and self-expression. Which seems utterly oppositional to the general discourse of the patriarchy, I know! But while women have been openly repressed and shoved in constrictive ways of being, this allowed them to run the backstage, and with considerate freedom provided they disguised their influence well enough. I might get in serious trouble with feminists for stating that, but I firmly believe it's been the women's hall-of-mirror-esque chess play throughout history what's been keeping maintenance of the patriarchal caricature of a civilization for much longer than needed. It's not blaming women for the violence suffered against us, but taking responsibility in our "comfort zone" pulling strings behind curtains. As mothers, we break man's bones only to complain later they are "malfunctioning" and needing to hide behind all sorts of defensive behaviors. The darkness of a shadowy mother has only begun to be unraveled by our collective. Men are completely cast inside a position that grants them too little space to move. Emotional inflexibility has become synonym for strength, and suppressing basic human needs and sensible reactions to the world around became synonym for trustworthiness. That is unbelievable BS for me! Sorry if I'm a little too passionate about it. lol Oh, and look how curious (just to end in a lighter tone... >

Did you conflate the sadistic and masochistic elements or am i misunderstanding?

I started watching your videos just a few weeks ago and love your energy & content, grippy reminders on my own path of individuation and integration. Do you have some content or ideas about how to connect the inner feminine and masculine? I have for myself the impression that both are standing, so to say, side by side but alone, without or with little bond. For the rest a poem which often comes to my mind while listening to you or better to your energy: "Sometimes a wild God" written and spoken by, Tom Hirons m.kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fJucfdGTp5rbn4U.html Thank you for all of your work & inspiration
