WHY WE CREATED

THE 40-DAY CHALLENGE

You know how sexuality is so important, and yet it is so hard to get good information on it?

We support men in mastering their sexuality and relationships in order to connect to a deeper sense of purpose and create a more meaningful and directed life.

Now we have created a 40 day challenge, combining the wisdom and insight of centuries of eastern and western traditions with insights from today’s leading sexuality experts.

We are offering it to you for free, to give you a taste of how we work with men.

WHY JOIN THE

40-DAY CHALLENGE?

The goal of this challenge is simple: the mastering of your sexuality and connecting to a deeper sense of purpose.

Sexual mastery entails fully integrating your sexuality as a creative force in your action in the world. It is the opposite of sexual slavery.

It entails gaining control of and being able to channel and direct your sexual energy towards a meaningful purpose. It means you are the master of your passions and are administering that control in a way that is good for yourself, good for those around you, for society and ultimately good for the world.

In typical Maniphesto fashion, we do not all agree on how to do this - in fact some of the ideas we are presenting to you will be incompatible with each other. This challenge is designed to include something to challenge and inspire everyone, whether you are single or in a relationship, from a religious or hedonist background, celibate or promiscuous, or anything else in between.

WE PROMISE TO PROVIDE

A container for individual self awareness and reflection.
Open and authentic conversations amongst men on sexuality which are orientated towards positive use of sexual energy. By bringing this topic into the light with a supportive community, we are able to deal with them constructively.
A community working towards a shared goal increases collaborative ability, and makes us aware of how competitive tendencies hinder us.
A space to be honest about how sexuality influences your everyday sense of meaning and purpose.

TWO PATHS TO SUCCESS

We have designed the Maniphesto 40 Day Challenge with two pathways, in order to accommodate the radically different starting points for men.

Men on the Reset path will be in complete sexual abstinence for 40 days. This is for men stuck in a bad rut and need a fresh start with their sexuality.

For men who are happy with their sexuality, the Sharpening pathway builds towards mastery through refraining from ejaculation while remaining sexually active.
