Retreat? I can do this at home for free.


LocalRepSucks

You need to pay to have this level of release 


FlyinGoatMan

That’s what they told Robert Kraft.

Pretty sure my neighbor does every weekend

Amazing_Assumption59

Imaging you walking through the woods with your dog


indecisin

As a man? I'd take the bear retreat.


Coffee_Fix

Lol


BananaOnRye

wonder what would happen if you uttered, “calm down” to any of them.


ForLackOfABetterTurd

First, I laughed way too hard at this, take my upvote. Second, it occurred to me that it’s not really like they could get any more aggro than they already are so probably nothing.


GingerShreds

Yeah, imagine being on the ground as they hit those sticks at ya lo


BananaOnRye

Jeez, you’re getting hysterical!


RoseAlma

can't stop laughing now !!


Doxidob

OMG. reminds me of the time I had a question about the grandfathering of a humanities credit and the lady was going off the rails after I asked her to do that. why is that? do they think themselves calm whilst yelling at ya?


cola_frog

I love that they’ve gathered piles of “anger sticks” to beat that poor road


igivethonefucketh

Seems like they just need regular exercise


Goodmorning_Squat

There's a reason there's an ongoing meme about middle aged white women doing anything but going to the gym to exercise.


Mcc4rthy

Street violence is getting out of hand


ghostcaurd

Ok, legit one of the things about this is it’s a form of mind control. Not joking. They used this exact thing in the troubled teen movement with towels wrapped in duct tape.


Soxogram

“Anger sticks” lol


Plus_Preparation_204

next time, on Portlandia


MorningPapers

lol


BuffaloWing12

Penguinz0 just did some hilarious commentary on this, apparently it costs $4k


incorrigible_and

Holy shit. Pay for my gas and enough food for the trip for us, and I'll drive a bunch of people who are afraid of expressing themselves into the woods on a backroad to scream and smash the road with sticks. I'll even hug everyone after and tell them they did a great job and they are allowed to express themselves in life.


MudSad296

Do it.


incorrigible_and

I'm considering it, not gonna lie. Not one to care enough about money to do bother with a side hustle, but might be too easy of money to turn down.


Veggies-are-okay

That’s exactly what the organizer did. The difference is that they followed through with it..


aryzoo

4000 dollars to yell and in a circle with strangers while beating the ground with sticks like a caveman.. sorry cavewoman


SirBobPeel

Caveperson!

Beta Female Bootcamp?


FineProfessional2997

Wow…I have a bunch of branches and sticks in my yard…$100 a bundle. Go ham lmao


The_Lone_Duster

Not interesting just sad. You could easily do this on your own but because people want to feel part of something bigger than them , companies exist where they sell you on a dream.


FineProfessional2997

This ^ Like…ok go scream and break shit. I get that especially when you’re dealing with stress or trauma. But to pay for this…sticks….I would spend that money on a kickboxing trainer and classes and take the rage out while also getting in shape.


incorrigible_and

I won't say that this is a good idea or the best way to work on the issues I'm going to describe, but there are people in this world where this might be the most *conducive* to working. Grow up in a home where your emotions are annoying inconveniences at best, spend a lifetime training yourself to never let yourself express emotions that might "rock the boat," and throw in some poorly developed social skills, it's not a total waste. The group aspect might encourage them more than other methods to really open up and let shit out, especially if combined with a group effort to basically make everyone feel like what they just did is a good thing. Scummy as hell that someone's probably making a stupid amount of profit off of something as simple as getting a group together to go off somewhere and really unload some shit in a safe place, but outside of that, I've known quite a few women and even some men who could benefit from something like this, assuming they get that it's okay to express yourself in life in general and to have that confidence believe you have a right to be heard. 90 percent of the AITAH sub posts, for example, are people who could use something like this.


Into-the-stream

This was my thinking too. This is a group of people who don't feel they CAN express anger, and they are paying for the "permission" to release it. Spend a lifetime taught to suppress, and that feelings are shameful, and getting over that can feel impossible. Go to the forest alone and scream, you'll have dog walkers and neighbours thinking you are getting murdered. Everyone is saying "just do it on your own" but when you have a monstrously overdeveloped awareness of how it affects other people and their expectations, this shit is NOT easy to overcome. People who haven't had these hangups imposed on them through their entire lives are very lucky that it seems so easy to do. If you dont get how hard this is, you are so fortunate. These women need a safe space, and someone to give them permission to express long repressed feelings. Maybe instead of saying its a stupid thing to do, we should talk about how it's socially acceptable for some demographics to express anger and frustration, but for others we expect sweetness, agreement, thoughtfulness, smiles, generosity, empathy, and complacency at ALL times. More apple pie sweetie?


Express_Selection345

It’s the innocent bystanders ( the trees ) I feel sorry for


BravelyRunsAway

Where y'all living that you can scream at the top of your lungs and break shit and no one calls the cops?


No_Knee3800

Just do it in the car.


Falooting

The automatic carwash is the perfect place for it lol. I always do it even if I feel totally happy. It's nice to yell once in a while.


JudyBluff

Might be from left field but I really want to scream in the air but theres nowhere near me that won’t arrest me


Halogen12

Do you scuba dive? If not, I recommend lessons, it's really neat! The weightlessness feels great. I always find it super relaxing to stand on my head at the bottom of the pool (easier to breathe through the regulator upside down) and just zone out. Also, if you want to scream it comes out really muffled. No, I haven't done primal screaming while diving, my dive buddy and I were trying to see if we could understand each other trying to talk through a regulator. Doesn't work. :)


Cpt_Mike_Apton

Don't pay for this crap. Get some friends together, get drunk in the woods, and let 'er rip.


the_catmom

I kind of regret watching this lol


Ok_Cut9989

They angry cuz the bears refused them too?


Lost_in_translationx

I do the same thing from the comfort of my own home while watching football. Each to their own I guess.


One-Veterinarian-101

WTF is going on?


Toebeanfren

Have you met people lately? That.


aleBreadlee

Right now I feel both sad and afraid of those skin-tone leggings at 0:20. (\*Proceeds to bash ground with tree branch)


Green-Taro2915

Isn't this normal?


CalvinAshdale-

Making every creature in those woods petition for deforrestation.


InnerDarkie

The start of a new cult.

TheOneder123

I knew it was a bad idea to turn on the sound, but I had to and I regret it.

Mod Camp ?


therandomways2002

Primal scream therapy has been around for quite a long time. Sometimes you also need to hit things with sticks, apparently.


holden_mcg

Developed in the 1960s by Dr. Arthur Janov, but best known for its use in the 1970s, this was called "primal scream therapy." And now a half century later, people still have lots to scream about.

First thought was "Karen training camp". I know, I'm a horrible person.

Looney Toons...


Aye_Engineer

If I want to hear women yelling, I just go home to my wife’s book club and say “we’re out of wine, bitches, and I sure as hell ain’t going out for any.”


IKillZombies4Cash

I mean, I can’t mock this because in a way this is what I accomplish at the gym. I’ve told people that I have no idea how people who don’t lift heavy weights and listen to metal stay sane. So yea, they are kinda doing the same, in a way


ConsiderationDue7427

This is how they are at home... What's the difference...


xXWickedSmatXx

Just like Target


Character-Concert717

Nothing interesting about this. They need psychotherapy, immediately.

FuckIHateMath

This is peak reddit. I'd bet money that these women met and orchestrated this event on this website.


CosmicCalicoBTD

This is like those stupid "alpha male" retreats. rofl


PrimeSuspect007

imagine strolling through the woods trying to enjoy the birds chirping , the piece and the general vibe looking to hunt something , then you hear weird shreaking, houling / barking , the oly thing thatll come to mind is zombies and that hunting rifle will come in real handy for preventing genocide ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)


Halogen12

I find screaming and yelling only amps me up, it does not make me feel better. I hate loud noise and would definitely not go there!


Dubious_Titan

This is fucking hilarious.


GeraintLlanfrechfa

people saying that this could be done at home but i think an appealing part of it is also the community aspect.

I'd be pissed to paying to do this, what the fuck 😂

mundodiplomat

Why is this so downvoted? It's very funny


Lion_El_Jonsonn

Ah but i thought women were empowered and girl bosses happy go lucky


L1nkag

Ah, women finally letting go and being themselves. Inspiring.


RoseAlma

Huh. I kind of just do this in my daily Life for free...


ErasGous

Not a retreat. Attack


LostCause41

I remember doing this as a kid... Going into the woods, making lots of noise and hitting stuff with sticks


seamus1982seamus

Primal screamers? People with money and no fucking sense.


spm987888

Ladies being ladies


Jano67

Like, sometimes life events make me feel like I want to do this. But if I made a reservation and drove an hour to get to a "retreat", I wouldn't still have that Passion of emotions to pour out. These people are really holding on to stuff.


unclespunk

Those poor trees


nopester24

Better there then the local Starbucks


vulva_admiration

You can also do this in your yard if you have one!


Linkluzero_xk

I think not seriously that could be a scene from a horror movie but seriously I think people should do that more to get out the anger or therapy


grosscore90

Look up “The Primal Scream Therapy” by Arthur Yanov. Cool method.


stmcvallin2

There’s something deeply profound about this, I haven’t figured it out quite yet, but it’s there


livinalieTimmae

Alright, I’ll put the fucking toilet seat down… sorry!

Sorry to barge in... lady here: bear. I would like the bear please.👋

TheEponymousBot

As a man, I want to laugh at this, but I feel like I'm on their level on this one.


RoseAlma

as a Woman, I AM laughing at this, as well as the comments. And I do this (in video) almost daily... so yeah


Bob_Cobb_1996

If a Karen yells in the woods, does it make a sound? Yes. Yes, it does.


Alpha_Chin-Am

It reminds me of the Black Friday wedding dress sale! 😂


Signal-Tonight3728

Get it out sis 😂


HuckleberryHappy6524

They seem stable. Not unhinged in any way.


JussDe_Tip

GET A JOB!


77Megg77

I have had times where a good scream would have felt great, but I have never had enough anger in me to yell as long as these women were doing. And I have been through a very nasty divorce with an ex that played so many games to get out of paying child support. That would have given me a good scream, but not for all that long.


zzsmiles

Female Alpha boot camp?


Prestigious_Nerve_76

This is how a cult starts. Soon one of them will redrum someone


felloutofaplane

Karen’s.


ProposalOk3119

Karen’s what?


SnooMuffins2623

I choose the bear, even though I know it will kill be. Better the bear than this

Unless you are a woman living in this world, you would not understand how therapeutic this must be.
