There’s this Green Beret who has some great videos on this. Forgot what they are called. Really enlightening stuff tho.

Book I was thinking of is “Waking the Tiger: Healing Trauma.” 
There are valuable workshops, I know @SutcliffeDavid does deep healing work for men using breathing and other trauma release techniques.
Y’all should look into this, it’s powerful work. Gets stigmatized as “not manly,” but that’s really men being afraid to look in.

There’s this machismo “men don’t cry.”
Oftentimes men become strong due to childhood trauma. The strongest men suffer the most.
Unlocking and releasing that trauma is a fuck load more manly than looking at the bottom of a bottle.
Personally, I love to cry.

Trauma finds its way out.
That means for most men it’s lashing out, frustration, taking it out on the innocent people, which recreates trauma.
It’s our singular goal as men to close off the loops or ancestral trauma that was passed down to us from family, teachers, abusers.

Go somewhere by yourself and cry.
No one is there to watch or judge.
Then you’ll find the Inner Judge, the most cruel of all.
The voices of culture, broken family members, toxic voices from the past.
Why would you let those “voices in your” head control you?

“Real men don’t cry.”
They hold it all in and
- Find a bottle of booze
- Lash out at others
- Feel aimless frustration and malaise
- Harden their arteries
- Distract themselves to death
It doesn’t have to be this way, nor should it.

“Real men don’t cry,” they instead feel despair, a sense something is missing, and they are right.
It’s a disconnection from heart and spirit.
“Grr I’m a tough guy.” Cool. I’ve had my nose broken plenty of times. No big deal.
That ain’t what makes you fulfilled and complete.

I’ve done the traditionally masculine stuff. Fought. Sex. Travel. Money. Muscles.
“Success.”
Confronting your trauma, learning to breathe into your ❤️ ,
Crying … that’s when you see real power.
The power of God within your soul.

No one least of all me is saying to not chase those dragons of classical masculinity. You should.
Then find more, look within your hearts.
Learning to confront trauma, close off the damages others have done to you via ancestral trauma, that’s when the real work begins.
