A Weekend Pilgramage

THU

Base Camp

Set your intentions. Ground into the new space. Get ready for a journey of remembering. Our retreats are designed to create space from our busy lives so we can connect with ourselves and where we are in this season of life. We start off the weekend by sharing our intentions and what we hope to gain during the journey.

FRI

Up the Mountain

The journey begins. Morning embodiment practices and breakout workshops. Friday is about resetting our minds, hearts, and bodies. We take time to let down our guard, recharge our bodies, and explore our edges. We head towards the “peak” of the weekend, where we walk each other home into our center of centers. Experience the limitless power of your heart during the guided ‘Big Love’ Ceremony.

SAT

Down the Mountain

The adventure isn't over. Take a journey into the depths of your being with a Breathwork Journey. Discover the gold waiting to be uncovered. As you grab the insight, healing, or connection you’ve been looking for, you will be supported to bring this with you back to Monday morning. After the journey, you will have plenty of space to relax or go on an adventure. Finally, we finish “coming down the mountain” by breaking bread together and sharing stories around a fire.

SUN

Preparing to Go Home

Preparing for the real work. Bringing the divine spark back into our daily lives. This is not a retreat to escape our busy lives. It's designed to help bring the magic back into the “mundane.” To come home more embodied, more full of love, and with greater reverence, than when we started this adventure. Sunday is all about sharing our collective insights and creating our plan of integration. This is the moment we choose how we will embody come Monday morning and support each other in the process.

The Weekend Sanctuary

Rocus Retreat Center
 

The Location

The Experience

A Journey of Clarity, Remembering, and Transformation.

Imagine a feeling of clarity, a sense of having finally remembered the true man you are beneath the layers of societal expectations and self-doubt. This retreat will be a catalyst for that remembrance.

Guided by experienced facilitators, you'll explore the five pillars of D.M.E.:

Experience Unconditional Support: Our motto is “All of you is welcome.” Be supported, and support others, as you connect with like-minded brothers and engage in transformative conversations. Feel the weight lifted as you shed the need to maintain a facade.

Embrace Your Unique Essence: We are instruments in the “Symphony of the Cosmos.” Uncover your unique gifts and talents, embrace your inherent divinity, and inspire others to do the same. Remember the forgotten melody within you, and learn to play it with confidence.

 

Level Up Your Leadership Potential: Experience the power of Integrity, Vulnerability, and Authenticity. Discover your newfound ability to build genuine connections while putting down the need to wear the every day “masks.”  Step into a leadership role that flows naturally from your authentic self.

Integrate New Universal Spiritual Practices: Walk home empowered with a new toolbox of spiritual and mindfulness practices. Understand the Alchemical Process that enables you to embody more of your Divine potential.  These practices will become the tools that help you maintain the transformation long after the retreat ends.

Practice Melting The “Lead” Around Your Heart: Immerse yourself in an environment overflowing with love and participate in meaningful ceremonies.  Let go of the burdens and negativity that have hardened your heart. Enjoy the “fruits” of bringing this love and personal growth back to your family, friends, and community. Share the light you've rekindled within yourself with the world.

Limited spots are available! Secure your place at this transformative retreat and embark on a journey of self-discovery, connection, and exploration.

Unleash Your Fullest "F*ck Yes" Self in San Diego

Are you ready to shed the masks and embrace the real you?

 

This all-inclusive men's retreat the space for radical self-discovery and connection.

Imagine waking up to delight of the warm afternoon breezes, smell of wildflowers, and enjoy hiking through acres of untouched land. Reflect, reconnect, and grow in a space of beauty and nature. 

This isn't your typical men's retreat. We're not here for awkward silence and forced bonding exercises. This is a space for authentic brotherhood, open hearts, and the freedom to be your true self.

 

Here's what you can expect:

Unmask and Unleash: Our experienced facilitators will guide you through powerful exercises to confront your fears and limiting beliefs. We'll help you break free from what's holding you back, step into your heart, and embody the powerful man you are here to be.

Holistic Healing & Biohacking:  We've meticulously crafted a program that blends the best of ancient healing modalities with cutting-edge biohacking tools. Think:

  • Morning yoga and meditation sessions to awaken your mind and body.

  • Journaling exercises to collect your growth and bring your subconscious limiters to light.

  • Big Love Meditation to unleash the power of your heart and renew your self-love and compassion.

  • Guided breathwork journey to explore the depths of your being, so you can break through personal blocks, unlocking more clarity, energy, and focus.

  • Group adventures to awaken your passion, connection, and love for Mother Earth.

  • Safe space to explore (optional) plan medicine ceremony to open up new vantage points on your life and gain more clarity and understanding. 

Brotherhood by Your Side: You won't be on this journey alone. This retreat fosters a supportive environment with other men who understand. Share your experiences, push each other to expand, and forge lifelong connections that will empower you long after the retreat ends.

Space for Grace & Transformation: We believe in progress, not perfection. This isn't a bootcamp – it's a safe space to explore, experiment, and embrace "space for grace" on your path to transformation.

Reconnect with Nature: Immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of Rocas Retreat. Spend your afternoons recharging in the sauna, exploring the outdoors, or simply soaking up the sun in the outdoor pool.

This retreat is for you if:

  • You're tired of feeling stuck, unfulfilled, or off purpose.

  • You're ready to break free from self-doubt and limiting beliefs.

  • You crave deep connections with other men who understand your journey.

  • You're open to exploring new ways to optimize your health, spirituality, and performance.

The DME retreat was a catalyst for profound change in my life. It cracked me open to the light within, reshaping my understanding of masculinity. Embracing vulnerability, compassion, and love, I now live and express myself authentically with friends and family, forever transformed by this journey. Each subsequent retreat deepens my growth, and I eagerly anticipate future ones, knowing they will continue to enrich my life.

If had to choose two words to describe my experience with DME thus far, they would have to be, “fucking incredible🙏”…
Being a man who is constantly in his own head and own thoughts, a man of a few choice words, the entire concept of the DME group was not on my radar. The thought of opening up, sharing thoughts at all, let alone with people I did not know seemed odd to me.
That said, the experience changed me, opened me up, changed something in my head. Being a man of few words, this was odd!! 
Will be returning for my second retreat and could not possibly be any more excited for the entire experience🙏 I thank all you for each adding a special piece to the puzzle!!

"Joining the DME was one of the greatest decisions I have ever made. When I decided to join I was truly at a low point in my life. After 3 days with these amazing men, I had the love and support I was needing to feel like could accomplish anything. Joining this community and brotherhood is something I will always be grateful for."
