I’m a therapist and spiritual practitioner and I found a lot in this book to inspire me further on my journey of becoming a more integrated human being. This is NOT a superficial “how-to” book … this writing feels like it comes from many years of study AND personal practice. Sturm really brings it ALL together, Eastern and Western psychology and wisdom traditions, to provide a very thorough map of the development of consciousness within a male psyche. You can go deep with this book and will find it super fascinating especially if you are at all interested in writing that integrates many disciplines and traditions.
Matt Sturm is a supremely good teacher. He distills his advice down to the simplest next step. And those next steps work!!
This will sound exaggerated, but its not: If you want in on the secret of how good life could be, then please read this book, follow the steps and discover the magic that is behind Door #1.
I did. It changed my life … for the way better.
Matt’s perspective on the masculine Magician and the exercises were exactly what I needed. With my macho dad, I’m someone who found gender identities to be largely performative and neck-up living kept me separate from feeling into true needs.
I continue to use his teachings and writing as often as I possibly can. Hope you get the opportunity to work online with Matt or preferably one on one. He’s definitely got a cogent way Forward and a heart-centered paradigm for masculinity.
I’ve been in a men’s group facilitated by Matt, which was deep and intimate, and he brings his full self and philosophy to The Organic Masculine. The gift of the Magician archetype is “Consciousness,” and Matt is laying out a path to evolve consciousness, from gross state to subtle state to causal state to witness state. I’m grateful he’s shared a concise explanation of his learning on “Integral Theory” and transpersonal structure states — in his men’s group, I was asking him to explain these philosophies more. Whether or not you agree with all of what you read, you will surely find it fascinating, and a friendly invitation to open wide to ideas about the Kosmos, and your place in it.
As a man grappling with my own history of shame and guilt around the masculine, this workbook has helped me see my unconscious patterns that have held me in a state of suffering and smallness. As I attune to my heart and embody the magic that is my unique soul gift, I unlock my flavor of life affirming organic masculinity.
I had the privilege a couple years ago of being a part of a 12 week men’s group while he was workshopping some of the material that would eventually end up in these pages. Some of the edges I had to confront and the growth I experienced while doing that work have continued to challenge me and have shown up in my relationships and in the way I navigate my life. Most of the dialogue out there around masculinity tends to be had on the extremes. This book aims to help men find balance, and I can say at least for me it has succeeded.
