Men's Health

**Kings in Motion — Scarborough** ***Slow down to move forward.*** Join Rooted Kingship for a brotherhood walk at **Scarborough Bluffs / Bluffer’s Park**. At Rooted Kingship, we believe no man should have to do life alone. These walks are created for men to move stress out of the body, breathe deeper, connect with other brothers, and be seen without pressure to perform. Come as you are. Walk at your pace. Speak if you feel led. Listen if that’s what you need. **Why We Walk** This is more than a hike. It’s a space for brotherhood, reflection, mental wellness, and growth. We walk to clear our minds, strengthen our bodies, and remind ourselves that healing does not always happen sitting still. Sometimes a man has to walk it out before he can talk it out. **What to Expect** **1:30–2:00 PM — Arrival + Check-In** Please arrive early so we can greet everyone, get settled, and gather as a group. **2:00–2:10 PM — Welcome + Orientation** We’ll open with a short welcome, light stretching, and a simple check-in. **2:10–2:15 PM — Safety Brief + Ground Rules** We’ll review the walking route, pace options, group expectations, and safety reminders. **2:15–3:30 PM — Brotherhood Walk** We’ll walk together at a steady, conversational pace. There will be space for casual conversation, quiet reflection, and optional partner check-ins. **3:30–3:45 PM — Closing Circle** We’ll end with a short gratitude round and a take-home reflection prompt. **Rooted Kingship Agreements** *Brotherhood:* We look out for one another. *Authenticity:* Come as you are. No pressure to perform. *Growth*: We move our bodies and our stories forward. *Respect:* Every voice matters. No judgment, shaming, or talking down. *Positivity:* Bring your truth, but bring hope with it too. **Ground Rules** *Confidentiality:* What is shared on the walk stays with the group. *Support over advice:* Ask before giving advice. *Participation is optional:* You can speak, listen, or simply walk. All are welcome. *Respect the pace:* No brother gets left behind. **What to Bring** Please bring: * Water * Light snack * Weather-ready clothing * Comfortable walking shoes * Small backpack if needed * Phone fully charged * Any personal medication you may need, such as an inhaler, glucose tabs/juice, or EpiPen **Accessibility & Pace** This will be a relaxed community walk, not a race. Some areas may include pavement, packed dirt, uneven ground, small inclines, or roots. We will move at a group-friendly pace and take short breath breaks when needed. If you are new to walking, returning to movement, or recovering from an injury, you are still welcome. **Safety & Consent** This is a peer-led community walk. By registering, you acknowledge that outdoor walks may include natural risks such as slips, weather changes, uneven ground, or wildlife. You are responsible for your own health, pace, and decisions. If you feel unwell at any point, please let one of the group leads know. **Photos** We may take group photos, but only with consent. Before any photo is shared, we will ask for a clear thumbs-up or thumbs-down. No pressure. Your presence matters more than being posted. **Weather Plan** Light rain means we still walk. If there are thunderstorms, unsafe trail conditions, or severe weather, an update will be posted and sent to RSVPs before the event. *** **Age & pets:** 18+; pets are allowed. **Questions day‑of:** Text/Call Organizer at [Join WhatsApp Group ](https://chat.whatsapp.com/IEqqsux2wd8EpOHkan2Cmx?mode=gi_t) Men Only [IG Page](https://www.instagram.com/rootedkingship?igsh=Zm44c2loNjlrOGw%3D&utm_source=qr) \- Follow **Tick check reminder (spring):** *Wear long sleeves/pants if you can, consider DEET or Icaridin repellent (follow the label), and do a tick check after the hike.*

After each event, we’ll send a short feedback form so we can improve and support you. The host will also be able to provide feedback so we can learn what worked and what didn't. **[Click here](https://form.questionscout.com/6926c9ab87a828a5c11a79fc)** to apply and get started: if you’re selected, we’ll reach out for a quick screening call.

**The idea for this group is to build a community where men can gather together and build connections & learn and grow from each other.** How we start each meeting is by each of us checking in with our "roses and thorns" aka what are the good things and the bad things going on in your life recently? Then we will go into a topic discussion. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS** \*\*THERE WILL BE A ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY FOR NO-SHOWS. IF YOU RSVP TO A MEETING AND FAIL TO SHOW UP WITHOUT NOTICE, YOU'LL BE REMOVED FROM THE GROUP. THIS IS TO PRESERVE THE INTEGRITY OF THE GROUP\*\* 1. Confidentiality - EVERYTHING that is shared NEVER leaves this space so that this space remains safe and sacred. There is a zero tolerance policy for this. If a man is in violation of this, they will be permanently removed from the group. 2. Non-Judgement - we respect and honor every man’s truth so that we may receive the same from others. While we may not agree on everything, we commit to respecting every man’s perspectives and engaging in honorable discussion with one another. 3. Be committed - honor your commitment to this group and to yourself. If you attend a meeting, please commit yourself fully to the meeting. Also be committed to your own journey. When we fail, we own it & clean it up. 4. Speak from the heart - this is NOT a space to “look good”, have the “right” answers, and have it all together. Relax and know you are not alone. Be exactly who you are within the safety of this space. 5. Be supportive - This means always willing to provide encouragement to your fellow men, encourage action and momentum in each other’s lives.. Be willing to challenge each other. Be willing to hold each other accountable. 6. Participation - what you receive from this community will be a reflection of what you put into it. Period. We ask that you share your perspectives, reflect on others, and give/receive support when and where it’s needed.

Mental Health, how do you understand it? How can you improve it? How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went? Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence? Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp. This group is hosted by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
