Illuman of Utah - April Council

MEET OTHER MEN COMMITTED TO BECOMING BETTER, MORE AUTHENTIC MEN.

The Way of Council is a central and foundational practice for organizing gatherings within Illuman.

The Way of Council represents a rich blend of age-old communication practices from an array of wisdom traditions...

Speaking from the heart and listening from the heart are the two most important prerequisites in practicing the Way of Council. Being aware of how we communicate is also crucial.

We need to listen for more than the words. That means paying careful attention to the other person, not trying to think of how we’ll respond. We have to avoid “rehearsing” while the other person is still speaking.
