Purpose
Vision
We are a community aspiring to support each other to cultivate wellbeing in ourselves, in our community, and in the world, through a range of personal and collective practices.
We care for our bodies, hearts, minds, and spirits.
We cook healthy and delicious meals for each other. We seek to grow our own food or source it from farmers who treat land and animals with deep reverence.
We sing, dance, create art, laugh, and grieve together. We cherish time in nature and practice living in harmony with natural rhythms and cycles.
We take time regularly to connect with something greater than our individual selves, according to whatever spiritual, religious, or philosophical traditions resonate for us.
We care collectively for the beauty and cleanliness of our home and surroundings.
We host spaces for people to learn, grow, and reconnect to our innate vitality, joy, compassion and courage.
We are committed to inner work, self-responsibility, and self-regulation, while also embracing interpersonal challenges and conflict as opportunities for growth rather than triggers for separation or withdrawal.
We prioritize face-to-face connection, reducing digital distraction by intentionally limiting technology use and creating space for genuine human interaction, while still engaging mindfully in digital spaces.
We see every day as an opportunity to make the world a more beautiful and loving place to be, supporting each other in recognizing and giving our unique gifts in the world. We aim to take courageous, compassionate action on behalf of the wellbeing of all people and life on Earth, from a place of humility and love. We prioritize front line service to people and ecosystems under threat.
We aspire to be generous in loving ourselves, each other, and all beings. To love what is, and to recognize the inherent generosity and gifts of life and the universe.
