Conditions to Participate

Community, Ceremony & Connection With Intention

Image by Matthew Smith

Our Shared Practice

In all Wild Sabbath gatherings, events, and experiences

Life is ceremony

Ceremony feeds Life

Community is a practice

​

An open mind and heart are essential

Acceptance of others as they are is vital

All lifestyles, Nations, genders, faiths, ages, and ways of being

Are welcome to feel at home

Free from judgement, division or structures of "power-over" or "against".

​

We learn from everything

From the moment we show up

We are in ceremony

We conduct ourselves with integrity, compassion, 

a willingness to learn from all moments

and a desire to let go, love more, and help out.

​

When we struggle or react

we ask questions, we look within,

we seek the lesson, and offer deep listening

with spiritual intelligence, genuine humor,  and humility.

​

To grow this way together and within ourselves

we become emotionally vulnerable and spiritually sensitive

to hold the power to connect and the safety to heal

we understand there must be limits and boundaries:

​

We cannot support or welcome

violence of any kind

racism of any kind

religious judgement, or any diminishing "othering",

including unwelcome touch

or sexual comments/romantic advances during the gathering.

​

Repetitive interrupting, consistent unmoderated sharing, and 

not respecting the experience of others or the guidance of the moment

is disruptive and disturbing and while we can learn from it

it is not the culture we keep.

We are conducting energy and intention

to create a brief sanctuary of peace and remembering.

​

All views, challenges, suggestions and disagreements 

are very welcome, after the gathering and in private,

with organizers

or during an intentional time of community sharing.

​

Remember, to be in ceremony

is to know that all of our intentions, wishes, actions and attitudes

are amplified and witnessed by the presence of 

our human and More Than Human Communities.

​

Human-ness is loved, accepted, and encouraged

egotism and against-ness are not.

​

Children are welcome.

​

Fragrances are discouraged.

Ask permission to touch and hug.

But, remember, we do like a good hug!

​

If you have special needs of any kind

let us know.

​

If this all sounds good to you

then jump in and let's hang out!

​

If you find this statement of conduct and care

isn't a fit for you

we will miss you

but you will likely be happier elsewhere.

​

We absolutely reserve the right to excuse anyone

from our gatherings if harmful or disruptive to the shared process.

​​

Thank you for understanding and respecting these community values.
