The Forever Young Movement

Greetings beautiful humans 🤍 We're Ethan & Dan. 

We have created The Forever Young Community to reconnect people to their hearts through the pathway of the inner child. Our energies combined create an expression of healing that is very unique and special, we have been able to experience this first hand on the Forever Young retreats.

We balance play with depth to expand our capacity to feel. When we can return to the childlike self through play, creativity, laughter, curiosity, presence, silliness and authentic expression it allows us to embody an energy of pure love. Through this energy we have the power to go much deeper into the inner work to fully process and release the uncomfortable emotions we spend so long avoiding and suppressing.

The healing journey can feel so serious at times and leave you questioning where your spark has gone. We’re here to say fuck that😉 Flowing in and out of depth and play giving both the respect and attention they deserve 🫶🏻

Grow Together

The Forever Young community is a safe space we can all laugh, cry, play and heal together.

Your inner child is the part of you that's still carrying everything you felt, but never got to fully feel growing up. Every emotion you swallowed, every need that went unmet, every time you learned it wasn't safe to be fully yourself. It all gets stored in your body, your heart, and in your subconscious. When you are triggered now, it is usually something from the past that is coming to the surface and it is stopping you from showing up in your full and beautiful expression. It's the thing that keeps you living from fear instead of love 🫶🏻

This isn't about blame. Most of us were raised by people doing their best with what they had, often carrying their own unhealed wounds. But even with the best intentions, certain things happen to almost everyone growing up: being told to "stop crying," being praised more for achievement than for who you simply were, emotionally unavailable parents, divorce, chaotic environments, having your boundaries overridden, not having your emotional needs met, learning that love came with conditions. Just to name a few.

None of that makes you broken. It makes you human. But it does explain a lot about why you are the way you are today. 🙏🏼

These are some common ways it tends to show up as an adult:

• People-pleasing and loss of self
• Fear of abandonment / rejection
• Avoidant / anxious attachment
• Fear of connection and intimacy
• Fear of being seen
• Perfectionism and overachievement / chasing external validation
• Difficulty feeling or expressing emotions
• Feeling like you're too much / not enough
• Addiction
• Anxiety / overthinking
• Harsh inner voice and self-criticism
• Repeated unhealthy relationship / friendship patterns
• Imposter syndrome
• Struggles with play, spontaneity, joy, and love

All of these are just manifestations of the wounded inner child. They are coping mechanisms that were developed years ago in order to survive, but now these old survival mechanisms are getting in the way,

This is exactly why the Forever Young Community exists. We use the pathway of the inner child to help you go back, gently, and give that part of you what it didn't get the first time around - safety, play, expression, presence, and love.💛

This is about getting to the root of whatever is standing in your way using proven healing practices in different areas such as: nervous system healing, creativity, somatic work, breathwork, inner child healing, play, expression, and more. And you'll be doing it alongside other beautiful souls who are doing the exact same inner work, at the exact same time, right beside you. This is the place for you to find your people and make friends for life 💛

We will be sharing a range of different healing modalities to help you remove the things that are blocking you from living in love and authenticity, and we'll be helping you reconnect to your joy and expression. All of this you can do from the comfort of your own home in your own time.

This isn't about becoming someone new. It's about going back for the parts of you that got left behind and finally bringing them home. ✨

This is an invitation to awaken parts of yourself that have been hidden away far too long, through no fault of your own but past experiences and pressures of life.

The mission of this community is to allow people to peel back and shed the layers holding them back from embodying their authentic self, and have fun while we do it! We want everybody to tap into the state of love that is within us all. ❤️‍🔥

We'll give you the tools to break these patterns for good, not just understand them, but actually feel the shift, in your body, your relationships, and how you move through the world. Every step, we're right there with you, helping you find your way back to joy, play, love, and the divinity that's been within you all along. ✨🫶🏻
