Community Values

Relationship - We cultivate awareness for how we affect our world.

Reciprocity - All healthy relationships are based on mutual care. We aspire to the kind of generosity we observe in nature.

Trust - We build trust by aligning mind, word and action.

Respect - We sit in a circle, with no one above or below anyone else, and hold our unity and our differences with compassion. Leadership is earned, and appreciated.

Responsibility - We aim to master our own will to care for and learn from all relationships, honoring the boundaries within which we can affect change.

Sovereignty - We each know to what power we are beholden, and choose it freely.

Truth - We aim to express it with care, to welcome it with courage, and to humbly pursue it inside our hearts, layer by layer.

Confidentiality - we share what is ours to share, and honor the sanctity of one another’s life by safeguarding the container within which it unfolds.

Transformation - Challenges will arise due to the nature of our commitments. We show up willingly to meet our brilliance and our shadow alike, in order to grow.

Community - We recognize the importance of consistent relationships, of witnessing one another across time. We cultivate spaces for growth, support and encouragement.

Intimacy - We honor the nature of intimacy by refraining from any sexual behavior around our works and gatherings.
