The Strength of Tenderness trains the capacity to be moved and to let it show; to signal love in a new meaningful way. Four nights, focused on the sequence old rules interrupted: notice, express, attune, receive. Notice what moves you; express it directly enough that another person can receive it; hold another's experience, and let care land without deflection.
This course begins from a claim research supports. Being moved — the chest-warmth, the tears, the sense that something just tightened between you and another life — is a unifying emotional experience, whether the occasion is a work of art, a Super Bowl ad about a child, a friend's story about their father, or a meaningful experience with your partner. Boys are not born with less of this emotional experience. It is trained down, in the aggregate, by the age of twelve. And the neural pathways that generate it show measurable change after weeks of practice in adulthood. Practice builds principles into loving action.
