We knew we were in trouble when we started getting calls from the neighbors saying Carson was at the top of the tallest tree on the street. He was 7 or 8 years old. At 10 he made a zipline out of the dog's tie out and leash then attempted to zip from the tree to the top of the playhouse, nearly hanging himself. He came out of the womb a natural athlete and risk taker. We were amazed by his ingenuity.Freshman year of high school he started experimenting with drugs like most teens do, however our boy had unlocked the door to addiction. As his drugs became harder he spiraled out of control with periods of abstinence followed by a few weeks of being on a "e;bender"e; until a crisis would end that cycle. Each time, we would think this is his "e;rock bottom"e;, then it wasn't. We struggled with "e;Is this just the throws of adolescence or does he have a problem."e; By his Senior year he overdosed.Then starts the scramble to find some sort of rehabilitation that is longer, different and out of our area. How can we afford it? Insurance? Savings? Mortgage the house? What does recovery look like for a now 18 year old that can just walk away from wherever we send him?......Always Chasing Carson......

Men have largely lost their way in modern society. Our culture still prepares boys for manhood that is primarily based on the traditional roles of Hunter/Provider and Warrior/Protector from the Old World. These belief systems and behavior expectations-commonly known as "e;toxic masculinity"e;-once effectively protected our communities but are now creating significant problems of their own."e;Toxic masculinity"e; teaches boys to "e;Man Up"e; to be "e;strong and independent."e; However, this requires that males neglect the basic human needs of themselves and other community members-causing chronic illness, addiction, mental health issues, and violence. The range of negative impacts for both Self and Community as a direct result of these expectations and belief systems is staggering and growing by the day.It does not have to be like this!The problems facing men in modern society are extensive, but the keys to overcoming these obstacles lies within our genetic programming as social beings. All human beings are biologically designed to heal ourselves, to heal each other, and to meet our potential for personal growth in the safety of supportive relationships. The problem lies with the outdated expectations of traditional manhood, which have not yet caught up with the health and wellness needs of men and women alike in modern society.This book addresses solutions borrowed from research studies across a multidisciplinary approach-from Psychology, Anthropology, Religion and Philosophy-to show how a meaningful community-based lifestyle has always been the answer when it comes to health and wellness. Men must reintegrate this natural balance back into our Humanity to fulfill our sacred obligation as Providers, Protectors and Guardians--servant leaders-of an emerging Global Community.
