Emotional Release & Rest for Men

This footage is from a 2016 workshop I facilitated in Washington DC.

[@l.l.pozeguy6223]

I think to myself sometimes, “I wish I could cry.” Even the moments when I feel like crying, I just can’t. I respect the men that can. I remember being a child crying, then taking a nap, and wake up feeling so refreshed.

[@godsway8501]

So true man I remember when I was younger I had anger issues ( I still do Nd I plan on trying boxing because to the root man I just a boy that’s scared of failure, dealing with childhood trauma etc.. ) and I remember getting whooped by my moms Nd mind you I did grow up in a Haitian household so yk how that goes but anyways man I would get these whooping, go to my room cry my ass sleep Nd I can’t swear to you bro the refreshing feeling you get from crying and letting all that anger was just amazing lmaooo💯💯

[@supertrashgamergirl2690]

You can do it man. It's in you just waiting to come out.

[@WritersPlaygrounds]

Same here about the anger problems, once I dealt w/ that it became easier to just let go & release it all. Mr. Williams was right it is too heavy to keep carrying

[@dumacele6724]

@@WritersPlaygrounds how did you do it man?

[@dumacele6724]

First time I cried & really broke down was in 2019,I wish I went to therapy at that time ,,,I haven’t been the same ever since

[@mathch8926]

This is my first comment ever on youtube... I am not a black man, i am not a christian, i am not even American (French), I don't even have a boy (but a baby girl to come in a few months)...yet your just found videos have been inspirational on so many levels, and have already give me guidance for my futur role as a father. Keep up your beautiful work, my brother. You never know who you will impact... Blessings from Europe. Merci

Color is superficial brother! Dig deeper! We all are one and the same! 🥰🙏🏻

[@ComeToThySelektor]

I cried with the brother in the end, I cried because I lost a good woman due to my lack of navigating my emotions. But I know the loss is a blessing in disguise because now I'm here watching videos like these to reset and fortify my yearning soul. 💪🙏

[@jarayshaw9928]

Same here. I feel your pain. I hope you are in a better place now my brother

[@tylerboyer3904]

This is changing my life sir. I was raised by an adopted father who is an addict, always angry, and treated my mother terribly. I'm 29 and just found the lord in June, a deliverance will happen this Sunday 12/5/21 for me to release all of my false doctrine I've lived life through. God brought me to you and I get to see how a man carries himself. Thank you sir

[@coreyblackmon9426]

I've been on this earth for 44 years. I've been in a disastrous marriage, dealt with childhood trauma, been through a heartwrenching breakup and today? Today, I've been on this beach for two weeks. Chilin. Beach bumming it. I wake up every day and give thanks to The Most High for rest. To be able to be a part of the greatest gift ever given to us. NATURE. To know I am not separate from this ABUNDANCE that has been created for us. That we have allowed the so called Powers That Be take from us. I'm not going to live the rest if my life grinding. Yeah I'll work but it's going to be for a specific reason and I'm not going to over do it

[@Replica_Films2000]

i am half as old as you and i feel like the only diffrence is that young men like me simply just have more of an ability to slam our heads against that wall.........thats it......really........thats why we always mess up so bad were just more capable of over doing it than everyone else....i guess it makes sense then that older men value peace and calmth because they don't have that inherant desire to go ape shit and make things happen that we have.......its funny how much further wed get if we realized we dident have to sprint forward and always hurry.....to make it in life.

[@coreyblackmon9426]

@@Replica_Films2000 hey don't forget, I've been where you are. What I'm learning is that I think what we miss in our younger years is INTENTION. Maybe this can help you. Think of what it is you want by the time you're my age. For instance, if I was your age again with the knowledge I have now, I'd aspire to live to try ally off grid on a secluded island somewhere in either the South Pacific or an island over where Thailand is. I went to this private island website and saw some beautiful islands for sale. I'd love to have one. In America, we are so programmed to go with the norm. Get a good job or career/job, get a house and car, get married, have a family, leave a legacy. We never think outside the box. Like traveling the world and just expanding your mind. Getting in touch with your inner self. Your Soul. Being married to YOU and building a solid, nurturing bond with you. Developing a Spiritual connection. Developing Self love, self acceptance and self validation. Being fully integrated so that you can live a full life. Learning kindness and compassion and self healing. That's what we men need. Not rushing to get married and be in a relationship with a female. That's good only AFTER we've done the above mentioned things. Spend time with YOU first. I have a 20 yearold Son and it made me so.hapoy to hear him say that he's not in a rush to get into a relationship. I try and pour so much wisdom into him things that I wish I was open to learn as a child. And any young man that is open to my advice, I will share these things with him because i feel that it's vital for young men to take time to delve within themselves and get out of the box we've been put in by society and our parents

[@derrickgregory735]

Glory be to God. Amen. I've heard that tears cleanse the soul; yet to hear that it releases the soul, I must agree. When I reflect on what I've done; no amount of substance, pleasure, or money can release like those tears. A highly foolish person may be the best fit for release, because you finally release those negative yokes, by their folly being present; giving you the opportunity to finally release. But when you sit alone in your own thoughts, and those negative yokes that bound your brain finally speaks loud, oh what a joy it is that the LORD cried so that we can cry; showing us men to not be ashamed. And the funny thing is, how it cleanse the soul. A person can fight a thousand for release for the soul, but all it take is twenty tears to get the same results and be cleansed. A mouthful. So enough said. Thank you. I love you. Continue to be highly blessed and favored.

[@soledisciple]

This video really resonated with me because I’ve been grinding my whole life. My health has suffered and have children and my wife has been very ill for 2 years now I think because I have been working so hard while she has been trying to run the house. I don’t know how to walk away from my career to start anew. I never had a father teach me anything. I feel trapped and it’s this feeling that causes anxiety & depression. I am a strong believer in God but I need to escape this grind trap I’m in. I need God to do something new in my life. I want to transcend my circumstances to be able to take control and find balance for me and my family.

Challenge yourself with some concepts about manhood, explore your masculine potential to the maximum and become the kind of man you would look up to.

[@bensaucier751]

You know.. I first heard you speak on the Joe Rogan Experience and that day I went home and found myself sitting down and crying. Not because one one which thing but because of everything, life etc the very things you go on to talk about and did speak about on the podcast. I think one of the biggest lessons I learned is that in order for me to be a better father for my son and to my son I first needed to get myself in order. Ever since that day I have noticed myself being more conscious, how can I be a better man so I can be a better father. How can I react to adverse situations I may be put in in front of my son, and what my reaction displays to him. What you're doing is incredibly important. In a time where men's mental health isn't taken seriously, and boys are growing up without no real role models or knowing how to truly be in touch with themselves, everything you're saying is important. You inspire me sir, thank you.
