Join Our Community

How to Become a Member

Joining our community is a commitment to a way of life, not just a temporary stay. We are building something long-term, creating a space not only for ourselves but for future generations.

What’s Expected:

  • 100% vegan lifestyle

  • No drugs, smoking, or alcohol

  • Participate in all daily practices and community events

  • Take initiative and contribute your energy

  • Do not divert your energy - while you are here, The Essence has priority


The Process:

1.⁠ ⁠Start with a trial period – Join us for one month in the community program or experience one of our retreats first.

2.⁠ ⁠If you continue – After your trial, the next step is committing to three more months.

3.⁠ ⁠Long-term commitment – After three months, you commit to a total of one year (so if you did one month + three months, you'd stay another eight months).​

 

Financial Contribution:

First year: $1000 per month

After one year: Custom agreement, depending on the specific situation

Financial difficulties? A scholarship program may be available, depending on your level of investment and involvement in the community.


This is about being part of something real and lasting. If this speaks to you, we welcome you to take the first step.
