New blog on masculinity: Men in the Media

posted by Eivind on March 25, 2011, at 1:43 pm

Some years back, I attended a very powerful workshop series called Levende Maskulinitet (Living Masculinity). The workshop facilitators Dag Furuholmen and Eirik Balavoine took us on a journey deep into our masculine core from which I re-emerged a more integrated and open-hearted boy (yes, I was a boy back then).

They have now started a blog in preparation for a book which they have been commissioned to write.

Dag and Eirik’s work has been very important in my life and I suspect that I will contribute a great deal on their blog.
