A new men’s group is being organized in Lexington by facilitators Joseph Brescia and James Salvia. Insight Development Men’s Group will meet on five Mondays, from 7 to 9 p.m., beginning January 21.

The group will focus on external and internal changes in men’s roles and evolution, along with discussion of thoughts, feelings, hopes and fears that men have for themselves and society.

“Joseph and I acknowledge that these conversations will have many layers,” says Salvia. “Some aspects of the personal are recognizable in terms of the physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual. A look at the social aspect includes intimate partners or singularity, family, friends, colleagues and community.”

Salvia says that the men’s group also will address the enormous gender role adjustments and identity shifts that have taken place in recent decades. “It’s certainly not been easy for men or women, and things are heading for even more rapid change in our future,” he says. The group will include time for sharing and discussion on such subjects as removing old patterns that are no longer appropriate, gaining deeper self-knowledge, awakening to authenticity and becoming inspired to live, love, grow and change.

Cost: $175; sliding scale available. Location: Crystal Clear, 594 Marrett Rd., Lexington. For more information, call 978-261-3975, email [email protected] or visit TheWholeBody.net and click on events.
