Transformational Men's Retreats for Both Straight & Queer Male-Identified.
A California Mens Retreat for ALL Men: The Healing Power of Inclusion & Diversity
Are you searching for a men's retreat or a men's retreat near me that offers a transformative experience tailored specifically for men? Spirit Camp is thrilled to announce our upcoming Wild Heart Men's Breathwork & Embodiment Retreat in April 2025. Designed as a place for personal growth and community connection for male-identified individuals of all orientations—gay, straight, queer, trans, and non-binary—our retreat serves as a communal space that celebrates the diverse male experience. Our unique retreat combines men’s work with transformative breathwork. The breathwork journeys provide a powerful transcendent experience that reboots the mind and increases the energetic connection to spirit. And our men’s group work grounds the experience in the science of the nervous system, with mindfulness and wellness practices to tune up this important system that is subconsciously running much of our day-to-day life.
Our California Mens Healing Retreat Blends Modalities to Reboot the Body, Mind & Spirit.
Spirit Camp’s yearly Wild Heart Men’s Retreat has a facilitation team of diverse backgrounds across spectrums of sexuality and cultures, and thus we attract diverse groups on our retreats. This naturally lends to a special type of interpersonal healing that bonds men across cultural divides. The Wild Heart Men’s Retreat will be a potent container for this kind of life-changing experience.
“You can be straight AF or loudly queer. This space is a meeting place for the magic made possible at the cross-section of difference.”
— Nathaniel, Breathwork & Embodiment Retreat Facilitator

Is this a Men's Mindfulness Retreat California? Yes!
Set against the serene backdrop of Northern California, Spirit Camp offers a sanctuary for those seeking a retreat experience that transcends the ordinary. Our upcoming Men's Breathwork Retreat is more than just an event; it's a journey toward deeper self-understanding, emotional healing, spiritual awakening and overall wellness. We blend a range of modalities that all have different approaches to mindfulness. We define mindfulness as those practices that help still the mind and increase ones ability to be in the present moment with their attention attuned to the things they desire. From bringing our mindfulness attention inward to the emotions and sensations of the body, to attuning mindfully outward to connect with the emotional states of those around us. We use a blend of healing modalities and nervous system regulation practices to increase your ability to tune inward and outward. This is core to developing greater authenticity and developing the muscles of our listening and emotional capacity. By creating a space where men can express themselves freely and support one another, we foster an environment ripe for personal growth and collective healing. When Julian and I founded Spirit Camp as a queer couple we wanted to create retreat experiences where the LGBT and Queer community could be celebrated while not being queer-exclusive. Julian and I believe it’s at the intersection of differences that the biggest opportunities for growth and authentic connection lie. And we love hosting a community retreat space where all sexualities, genders, and dimensions of self-expression are welcomed. A place where exploration of identity can take place beyond the many binaries and currently polarizing ideologies.
Is this a California Health and Wellness retreat for men? Yes!
Every aspect of this retreat is designed with wellness in mind. From the healthy, nutritious food, to the cold plunges to help you hack your system and reboot your nervous system. To the afternoon free time for reflection, nature walks and time to visit the local spa and infrared sauna… We encourage our participants to be without their phones while at camp to further disconnect and use this time as a special place for focusing on mental health and well-being. Each morning there are meditation sessions in the sanctuary space for those who want additional time for these important mindfulness practices. And this is in addition to the four-day retreat programming that includes a variety of practices for meditation and mindfulness. Our view of wellness is that it is so much more than our body. Wellness is being connected to our emotions, being connected to one another, and being connected to our natural environment. The Wild Heart Men’s Retreat Programming is designed specifically to be a health and wellness retreat across all these dimensions.
