Meet Matt - Your Guide on the Inner Path
"I have been involved in men's spiritual work for fifteen years and have been entwined with community and environmental work for twenty-five years. I am deeply committed to work that heals our people and planet, something I especially love to do through the medium of gardening. I live at the Monastery of Sergius and Bacchus in New Brighton, which I co-founded in 2014. This space has been a healing place for many men over the years, and a place where they have been able to explore their own spiritual journey in a non-judgmental, open and loving environment. The Urban Monk Spiritual Quests grew out of a business centred on creating health-giving, restorative foods, and now I have turned towards nourishing the inner life. I have been visiting male spiritual sanctuaries around the world for almost twenty years, and see an incredible richness to them. Having studied in various spiritual traditions, I am eager to support others in their journeys."

At Urban Monk Spiritual Quests, we prioritize personal growth and spiritual connection over religious doctrines, fostering an environment of exploration and enlightenment.

"I have known Matt Morris for 26 years and in that time we have shared our spiritual journeys, plus a love of writing and history. Matt has a passion for people, the environment - seeing the connectedness of all things. I've always believed he has a special gift for supporting men in this capacity. He is sensitive, inclusive, patient, a good listener, curious and has a wonderful sense of humour. Matt is someone you want in your life! I'm so glad to have him in mine."

"I had the opportunity to discuss my personal spiritual beliefs with Matt in some detail and I found his non-judgemental attitude, warmth, engagement, and sincere interest, truly refreshing and comforting. I believe he helped me feel more connected and at peace with my spiritual path."
