Authentic Relating Village in Chapala, Mexico, is an intentional community focused on deep connection practices (Authentic Relating and Circling), health & well-being, and conscious entrepreneurship. We are currently (Jan. 2024) just two people, renting units at a residential hotel in a beautiful location in the hills above Chapala Mexico, and have room to expand to 5-6 or more people by renting additional units. We have strong connections with the global Authentic Relating and Circling community and we have room for both month-long (or more) residential retreat intensives focused on personal exploration and healing, and spaces for permanent members. Our goal is to establish a kind of human transformational utopia through deep connection practice, public service and conscious entrepreneurship. We are one of the very few intentional communities in the world practicing the very powerful tools of Authentic Relating and Circling. Once the community is established and we have critical mass, we may move out of the residential hotel and acquire our own property which can operate as an eco-village and begin agricultural operations. By beginning with the human relationships and building out the infrastructure later, we eliminate the financial risk of moving into a new community. Additionally, in the startup phase the physical location here is great. Pricing is very affordable as well (in the $400-600/mth range) and we have no capital requirements for joining. We are very close to Ajijic, which is a famous retirement destination on the shores of beautiful lake Chapala, and which attracts many spiritual seekers, “transformational geeks”, artists and intellectuals, etc. There are also a number of other intentional communities in the area which are part of our network. There is much more information on our website https://authenticrelatingvillage.com/
