Basic expectations or agreements for members

Qualia Tulum: A Fusion of Collaboration and Freedom

At Qualia Tulum, we are pioneering a bold experiment in community building, where creativity, resilience, and self-reliance come together to forge a unique way of living. Inspired by the principles of egalitarian communities and anarcho-capitalist philosophies, we strive to create a space where individuals thrive both independently and collectively.

Our Principles:

Self-Ownership and Voluntary Participation

Each member is respected as an autonomous individual, free to direct their energy and talents. All contributions are voluntary, reflecting personal choice and mutual agreement.

Shared Resources and Collective Empowerment

While we value private property and innovation, we also hold certain shared resources in common, ensuring equitable access to essential tools and spaces that empower creativity and growth.

Non-Aggression and Open Collaboration

Guided by the non-aggression principle, we build a community where conflict is resolved peacefully, and collaboration flourishes through trust, respect, and open communication.

Equality and Inclusivity

We welcome all individuals, regardless of race, gender, or background, and actively work to create an environment where everyone feels valued and supported in their contributions.

Sustainability and Innovation

Through permaculture, eco-conscious design, and technological ingenuity, we strive to conserve natural resources and push the boundaries of sustainable living.

Decentralization and Freedom

Decision-making is decentralized, empowering individuals and small groups to take initiative while remaining connected to a broader, collaborative vision.

Market-Driven Creativity

We encourage members to develop entrepreneurial projects, barter skills, and explore alternative economic systems, including cryptocurrency and digital commerce, to foster independence and resourcefulness.

At Qualia, we aim to bridge the gap between individuality and community, creating a space where shared values and personal freedoms coexist harmoniously. This is more than just a community—it’s a movement toward intentional, sustainable living, where the possibilities for growth and innovation are as boundless as the jungle that surrounds us.

Community Economics within the context of a self-sustaining community like Qualia Tulum emphasizes a shared approach to managing resources, building businesses, and fostering collective growth. It blends the principles of sustainability, social entrepreneurship, and cooperative governance to create a resilient local economy. The focus is on developing ventures that are economically profitable while benefiting the environment and the community at large.

Key aspects include:

1. Local Resource Utilization: Communities like Qualia often promote using local resources to support both daily life and economic ventures, such as growing food locally (e.g., mushroom labs) or sourcing materials from nearby artisans .

2. Collaborative Business Ventures: Entrepreneurs and innovators are encouraged to build businesses together, with shared resources, skills, and profits. This might include sustainable fashion lines, permaculture projects, or creative studios  .

3. Circular Economy: A key principle in many intentional communities, including Qualia Tulum, is ensuring that money and resources circulate within the community. By supporting local businesses, reusing and recycling materials, and generating new income streams, the community becomes more economically independent .

4. Social Impact: The economic activities are not just about profitability but also about contributing positively to society and the environment. This creates a mutually beneficial system where the economic activities strengthen both the community’s social fabric and its financial stability

We welcome new members who are anchored in spirit, heart, and body.

WILD GRACE, an intentional, eco-spiritual community (Sierra foothills, 30 minutes from Grass Valley, California) is excited to have completed the creation of new homes for prospective members. Perhaps you or someone you know have been preparing for this wonderful opportunity? Spiritual community (sangha) is crucial on the personal level, as Thich Nat Hahn says: Your sangha—family, friends, and co-practitioners—is the soil, and you are the seed. If you have a sangha that is joyful, animated by the desire to practice and help, you will mature on your path of awakening. (adapted from Cultivating the Mind of Love) We also believe that spiritual community is crucial on the global level. The intentional focus of loving, mindful consciousness transmits a healing and transformative energy beyond our ability to perceive, which assists in planetary awakening. Wild Grace provides an opportunity for an intimate group/sangha to focus on inner attunement to the Divine, to deepen in group authentic communication practices, to steward sacred land, and to choose love moment-by-moment. Our octagonal temple, perched above the wild and scenic South Yuba River, is devoted to the Mother of Us All. We are dedicated to life-long learning of the skills needed to communicate, heal, and live life fully together in Love, Oneness, and Presence. We support a healthy balance of personal and community care, work and play, purpose, and “right livelihood.” Our shared foundation consists of group morning silent meditation, weekly heart circles where we practice trauma informed authentic relating, tending the land, sharing two or more meals a week, and creative expression. We host events including weekly neighborhood potlucks, open monthly Kirtans, weekly A Course of Love online global meetings, weekly Qi Gong classes, sun/moon cycle ceremonies, and dance classes. Wild Grace is located on 80 acres of land adja
