What we do

Our Vision is to birth Heaven on Mother Earth (H.O.M.E.), to awaken humanity from our deep sleep by taking 100% responsibility for all aspects of our lives.
Earthwaking Village exists in order to assist those that love the Truth to live the Truth. This village is for people who are tired of living in a world full of corruption, fear, division and lack. Our members have left all that behind and devoted their lives to co-creating the New Earth – full of love, connection, honesty and abundance from the inside out.
We are manifesting abundance for ALL by building off-grid, self sustainable 3-Dimensional (Spiritual, Physical and Emotional) Freedom Universities all around the world. We are developing and sharing a new type of education where the focus areas are on health, wealth, happiness, relationships and spiritual connection.
Our eco-village sits on 5 lush acres in sunny Platanillo, Costa Rica. We have 25ish people (adults and kids) living here full time and often have guests, work-trade volunteers, and event attendees come visit us. We have new 1 and 2 bedroom homes, renovated homes/casitas, and condo style studio apartment homes available for stewarding.
We have a full time Garden Team that manages our greenhouse and cares for the 100’s of fruit trees that we have planted in our food forest. We also share our Garden of Eden paradise with 80ish hens that produce more than enough eggs for us and to share with the community at large. We eat most of our meals (breakfast and lunch) together in a family-style round table way, and prepare mostly vegetarian meals (with eggs and dairy, sometimes). Though you are welcome to cook for yourself as much or as little as you like and eat according to your own preferences.
We host in-person transformational events at least 4 times per year that bring people home to Love and the Truth of who they really are… perfect children of God. Register for our next event here: www.RememberExperience.com Our community members also host life-changing transformational events on a weekly basis online via zoom and I invite you to attend our FREE introduction by registering at www.FreedomToBeMasterclass.com (almost every Thursday evening).
We are a Community centered around a Purpose and a Village centered around that Community. The land that supports the community provides us with sovereign sources of food, water, shelter in service to our mission of birthing Heaven on Mother Earth.
If you are ready to leave “The Matrix” behind and step in to a radically different way of life… reach out. We’d love to hear form you.

Our Mission

To heal humanity from the inside out and create a world of abundance for all, by taking 100% responsibility for our thoughts, feelings, actions and reality while working in harmony with nature and each other. As a result, we are birthing the New Earth!

Healing Love Healing Money: Trust As The Foundation For A New Culture

Money, love and power are among the hardest things any community works with, and many of us carry the same fears into both: not having enough, losing what we have, and the sense that if someone else gets money or love, we won’t. Healing Love, Healing Money: Trust as the Foundation for a New Culture is taught by two intentional communities. Karen McAllister and Duncan Cryle are from Clear Sky Meditation and Retreat Center, a Buddhist-lineage community in the BC Rockies. Monika Alleweldt and Benjamin von Mendelssohn from Tamera Healing Biotope, a community of about 160 people in southern Portugal that has spent decades studying love, trust and relationship. Clear Sky has spent years working on its relationship with money, and our two communities found surprising parallels in the fears beneath both. Over four sessions we explore the roots of fear around money and belonging, love, possession and power, trust as infrastructure (community as a container for healing), and ethical livelihood. We use short meditations, body-based practices, reflection and small-group conversation. You do not need to be in a romantic relationship or live in community. When: October 27, Nov 3, 10, 17. All four sessions: 12–2pm Vancouver, 1–3pm Alberta, 7–9pm UK and Portugal, 8–10pm Central Europe. Note: US and some Canadian provinces change clocks on November 1, so the US west coast is 12–2pm on October 27, then 11am–1pm for the remaining sessions, and Eastern is 3–5pm on October 27, then 2–4pm for the rest. Cost: sliding scale Details and registration: https://www.clearskycenter.org/event/healing-love-healing-money-online/

Do you feel called to help co-create a small, newly forming eco-spiritual community?

Old structures are crumbling. New ways of living are calling. We are answering that call. Wild Grace is an eco-spiritual community located in the Sierra foothills 30 minutes from Grass Valley, California. We recently completed new homes for those who feel called to our vision. Currently there are four of us living on this sacred 80 acres of land although we are a hub for an expanded neighborhood community. Many join us weekly for potlucks, expressive dance, Qi Gong, monthly musical gatherings, and seasonal celebrations in our temple, as well as tending to our orchard. We are excited to welcome others to join us on the land who are dedicating their lives to spiritual growth and ready to live in a more focused and intimate heart-centered lifestyle. Might that be you or someone you know? The fundamentals are simple. Spirit. We listen personally and collectively together most mornings, usually starting with a musical offering, a prayer, or a short reading, followed by about 40 minutes of what we call “sacred silence.” Heart Circles. About once a week we gather to share and listen. We are informed by authentic and compassionate communication practices. Nature. The land itself—an 80-acre oasis of field and forest perched above the wild and scenic South Yuba River—calls for our stewardship in the gardens, orchard, greenhouses, and general care. In turn, nature feeds us abundantly, both literally and spiritually. Interbeing. We join with others to share inspiration and connection as we host monthly gatherings of song, story and prayer that draws from the larger community in addition to other events we share with our closer neighbors. As we attend to these fundamentals, Grace flows to and through us—often in “Wild” or unexpected ways. Grace catalyzes through us, but is not something we possess. Because we all are connected, we feel that Grace actively transforms n
