The Auṃ Institute

The Auṃ Institute 🔺 bio.site/theauminstitute 🔺 The Auṃ Institute of Tantra exists only as a name. Only as an idea. Once you attempt to do so, it becomes a prison. This is our life!

Beyond that it is of no use to any of us if it becomes another organization—another box—for you or I to become caged within. The ultimate Truth that is easily recognized within each of us cannot and should not be organized. And so, as you can see, we walk a razor sharp edge in choosing to form an Institute within which to do our work. Our mission is to help our fellow brothers and sisters—the over

whelmed, overworked and often traumatized householders of the present age—to become free from the prison of the past, so that the Truth of the nature of their Being may be revealed to them, and they may finally abide in its ever-present peaceful glow. Our focus and passion are directed towards understanding the realities of life lived as a modern householder: living through work, relationships and family. This is most interesting to us because it is where we find ourselves. Our work is to guide others back to an innate sense of wholeness, to help them become re-connected with the fullness of their experience, and to show them how they can transform each mundane activity, every relationship, and each moment into an opportunity for the revelation of their essential nature as the one Awareness that permeates all of existence. We provide modern Somatic and Tantric technologies to individuals, couples, and families to help them to holistically restore their health, revitalize their relationships, and recognize their purest selves.

Men, sons, fathers... Does this ring true? 👇👇

When boys grow up with little emotional access,
surrounded by men with low emotional intelligence,
they become emotionally oppressed.

Toxic Masculinity ™️ is just the result of how we treat our boys.

The whole conversation about “toxic masculinity” has shaming and complaining vibes.
That only adds to the toxicity.

So how do we prevent toxic masculinity?

First we must understand where it comes from.

Men and male behaviour are not inherently “bad.”
The toxic s**t was learned.

Either it was passed down,
or it filled the space left by the absence of healthy masculine.
If we didn’t get it from Dad,
we sure as hell got it from other boys.

Behind each man’s eyes is a little boy who wanted to be accepted and admired.

He did what he had to do to get that.
Or, if he didn’t believe it was possible for him…
He did whatever he could to make himself invisible
and avoid the shame of being seen as less than.

Either way, whether we try to
live up to unhealthy standards, or
hide parts of ourselves to avoid rejection…

Our garbage beliefs rot
and stew
and become toxic.
Not just towards others, but first towards himself.

👉 You can’t change this by reading posts or watching Youtube videos on How To Be A Standup Guy.

Humans learn
(and un-learn and re-learn)
through transmission and
nervous system attunement.

You must experience a new way.
and see it reflected in the eyes of other men.

That’s what leads to embodiment and change.

The conversation about “toxic masculinity” is getting old, isn’t it?

The vibe is shame-y and complain-y.
But doesn’t that add to the toxicity? 🫠

So what’s the answer?

First we must understand where it comes from.

The toxic s**t was learned.

If it doesn’t get passed down directly,
it’ll sneak in to fill the space left by the absence of healthy masculine influence.

Let’s stop that cycle now.

After we clear the outdated beliefs,
we must experience a new way of being,
and see healthy, integrated masculinity reflected in the faces of other men.

We know a huge hurdle to starting therapy is getting over that initial step: booking the first appointment.

Who should you choose? What if they suck?
What if it’s a waste of your time and money?

A free mini-session takes the pressure off.
You get to meet us.
We get to meet you.

If everyone passes the vibe check, you can dive deeper with a 3 or 6-month commitment to your personal journey.

(Yes, we still offer free 20-minute free. But tbh they almost always run long and turn into mini-sessions anyway! So we decided to cut to the chase and just give people what they need: a dose of human connection, co-regulation, understanding, and relief.)

To try out a free Somatic Integration Therapy with Aaron or Alissa, find the Iink in our bĩo or send us a quick DM.

Something we notice a lot:
People spend years trying to “figure themselves out.”
Reading. Learning. Reflecting.

But real change begins when another human enters the process.

Because healing DOES NOT come from insight.
It happens in connection.

The people who come to us are thoughtful, self-aware, and already doing a ton of inner work.

But if self-help alone worked, wouldn’t most people be “healed” by now????

What they’re missing isn’t effort.
It’s the right kind of support.

So stop beating yourself up for not getting it right!
You were never meant to figure it out alone.

"I’ll be honest, by the time I found you guys I’d already tried just about everything people recommend. Acupuncture, vitamins and supplements lined up on the kitchen counter like I was running my own freaking pharmacy, meditation apps, men’s groups, mindset stuff, all of it. I understood my history. I could explain it forwards and backwards. But none of that really landed until I started doing this work. That’s when something actually connected and I could see the bigger picture. And it keeps getting bigger." -Darren R.

"I wanna be a hot mess when I grow up!"

Said no kid, ever.

Do you ever wonder how you got to this place?
Wasn’t life supposed to get easier once you finally got the family, or the house, or the career?

But now you're not the parent you dreamed you'd be.
Marriage apparently gets more complicated after the wedding. (Who knew?)
The house upkeep is driving you insane (or driving you into debt).
And the job is... just a job (on a good day).

You’ve tried to feel better, but you've started to wonder if you'll have to wait for retirement to actually enjoy life? For the kids to grow up? For the student loans to be paid off?

Here's a secret:
There are plenty of retired, debt-free senior citizen empty-nesters who feel like hot messes too 😧

Don't wait for your situation to change.
Stop beating yourself up internally while telling everyone else that you're fine.

You need to build your resilience, release some pressure, and recalibrate your internal compass.

And you probably need support to do that!

(Not from watching another TikTok explaining the issue ... but from getting REAL human-to-human support.)

That's where Somatic Integration comes in.
If you've been thinking about getting help, let's chat.

If you’ve ever said “I wish grown-ups could go to summer camp”…

If your ideal weekend involves wild herbs, bare feet, and soul talks by the fire…

If you wish you could meet more people following the path of sustainable conscious living...

Your dreams have come true, friends.

🌿 Reclaiming Evolution Festival is happening this summer from August 1–3 in Peanut Lake, AB.

There will be so much happening that your only problem will be how to take it all in. (But we've got just the thing for overwhelm.)

We’ll be there, and here's what we’re offering 👇👇

🔺 Somatic Integration Sessions (with Aaron)
→ Release old stories & repattern what’s next.

🔺 Birth Trauma Integration (with Alissa)
→ Trauma isn’t the ending. It’s an invitation to find the magic within your birth story.

🔺 Mechanisms of Masculinity – Group Workshop for Men
→ Rewire your relational self for deep presence and s-xuaI integrity.

🔺 Integration Space – Group Gathering for Men
→ Final day offering. Because insights and breakthroughs don't lead to change without integration.

✉️ DM us for the ticket Iink and we'll send you a special discount code to go with it.
