A Living Village in the Heart of Puna

The Soul Emerges Where the Land is Free.

Shangri-La is a high-frequency node on the Earth’s grid. Nestled on raw, vibrant land in the heart of Puna, Hawaii, our village is an emergent sanctuary dedicated to the liberation of the land and the restoration of the human spirit. We are a community of families, artists, and stewards building a new way of being.

Building on Raw Land

We are an up-and-coming village, currently in the sacred process of birthing our infrastructure from the raw lava and lush jungle of Puna. To be part of Shangri-La is to be a pioneer of the New Earth. We are building:

  • The Temple Center: A communal space for dance, ceremony, and collective healing.

  • The Living Roots: Family-centered dwellings integrated into the landscape.

  • The Womb Gardens: Food forests and medicinal apothecaries that serve as our primary source of health.

The 2026 Residency: Two Spots Available

Starting this fall, we invite two dedicated practitioners to join us in these rhythms. You will be fully immersed in the building of the Shangri-La infrastructure while being held by the container of the weekly council and communal rituals.

  • Learn to Resolve Conflict Consciously: Master the art of communication in a high-stakes, high-love environment.

  • Practice Sovereignty within Community: Discover how to maintain your individual soul-path while being an essential node in the village grid.

The Pillars of Our Village

1. Temple Arts & Family Life We believe that the home is a temple and family is the first circle of ceremony. At Shangri-La, we combine the daily rhythms of child-rearing and community living with the Temple Arts. Life here is an ongoing initiation, where creativity, movement, and devotion are woven into the fabric of our everyday existence.

2. Sovereign Stewardship Our primary focus is the health and vitality of the Earth. We don't just "own" land; we are in the active practice of liberating it.

  • Restoration: Tending to the raw volcanic soil and native flora.

  • Reciprocity: Living in a way that gives back more to the ecosystem than we take.

  • The Earth as Physician: Designing our village to be a place where the land’s natural frequency heals those who walk upon it.

3. A Sanctuary for Soul Emergence Shangri-La is a "Node of Return." It is a protected space—a sanctuary—where the noise of the modern world falls away, allowing the true Soul to emerge. We provide the container for residents and visitors to reconnect with their Monadic roots and remember their original purpose.

The Rhythms of Shangri-La: Life in the Village

​

Living at Shangri-La is a commitment to a weekly rhythm that keeps the heart of the village beating in unison. We don’t just live near each other; we live with each other, using time-tested tools to maintain the frequency of our sanctuary.

The Weekly Pillars of Connection

  • Weekly Village Council: This is our cornerstone for conscious relating. Council is where we meet heart-to-heart to share our visions, align our goals, and resolve conflict with transparency and grace. It is our practice of staying "current" so the village energy remains clear and vibrant.

  • The Village Potluck: Every week, we gather around the hearth to share the literal fruits of the land. Our community dinner is a time for storytelling, laughter, and the simple, sacred joy of feeding one another.

  • Temple & Land Work: A major piece of the residency is the physical and energetic tending of the land. This is "work-as-play"—whether we are clearing invasive species, planting food forests, or maintaining the temple spaces, we do it as an act of devotion and stewardship.

  • Weekly Temple Space: A dedicated time for the Temple Arts. This is where we move, meditate, and engage in the soul initiation practices of Monadic Medicine as a collective.

Why Hawaii?

The Womb of Creation

​

The land in Hawaii carries a specific frequency of Primary Creation. As the fire of the volcano meets the water of the ocean, a portal of the "First Breath" is held open.

  • The Land as Teacher: She teaches us the culture of Aloha and Malama (stewardship) not through books, but through the feeling of the trade winds and the heat of the stone.

  • The Mother’s Womb: This land is a physical manifestation of the womb—a place of warmth, pressure, and the raw power of life coming into form.

The land is Kumu

a six week descent into the heart of the Mother

​

​

In the ancient ways, the land was not merely a place we walked upon; she was the source of all wisdom, the original Mother, and the ultimate Teacher. Return to Roots is an invitation to enter the Mystery School of the Earth.

This is not a course taught by humans. This is a journey where the Land herself initiates you. We gather to remember how to listen to the moss, the lava, and the lineage of the ground beneath our feet. We return to the womb of the world to be reborn into our own sovereignty.

To Earth To Mother

Begins October 1st.

The Architecture of Return

​

  • The Earth is the Primary Physician: We go to the land first to heal our disconnection.

  • Sacred Play & Exploration: We approach the land with the curiosity of a child, entering Gaia’s Mystery School with wonder.

  • Sovereign Stewardship: We learn that to care for the temple land is to care for our own bodies.

​

The Journey: Two Pathways to the Center

1. The Digital Pilgrimage (6-Week Online Journey) For six weeks, we gather in the virtual temple to prepare the soil of our consciousness.

  • Weeks 1-2: Clearing the Canopy. Stripping away the noise of the modern world to hear the subtle pulse of the Earth.

  • Weeks 3-4: Deep Rooting. Connecting with ancestral lines and the subconscious "underworld" of our own timelines.

  • Weeks 5-6: The Flowering. Learning the language of the elements and preparing for the full integration of the soul.

2. The Physical Integration (Optional 1-Week Temple Immersion) To close the container, you are invited to travel to the Eztia Temple Land on the Big Island of Hawaii. Here, the online teachings move from the mind into the marrow. You will stand on the newest earth on the planet—land still being born from fire—to receive your final initiation directly from the Kumu of the Pacific.

The bridge back to roots

​

In a world that has been severed from its source, we find ourselves adrift. The Bridge Back to Roots is the intentional architecture we walk to find our way home. It is a path that spans the distance between who you have been told to be and the ancient, indigenous soul that lives in your marrow.

The Architecture of the Bridge

Phase 1: The Internal Scaffold (The 6-Week Digital Journey) The first half of the bridge is built within. Through our online container, we clear the static and prepare the body to hold the high-frequency medicine of the Monad.

  • Tuning the Instrument: Learning to hear the "Kumu" of your own local land.

  • Building the Foundation: Establishing the daily practices of stewardship and somatic earth-connection.

  • The Call of the Mother: Developing the sensitivity required to step onto sacred ground with proper protocol and an open heart.

Phase 2: The Physical Crossing (The 1-Week Temple Immersion) For those called to cross the bridge fully, the journey culminates on the Eztia Temple Land in Hawaii. This is where the bridge touches the earth.

  • Into the Womb: Stepping off the digital bridge and into the literal fire and water of the Mother.

  • Held by the Lineage: Crossing the threshold into the care of our Indigenous Kumus and Elders. Here, the bridge is reinforced by the hands of those who have never left the roots.

  • The Birth of the New: Completing the initiation by planting your own prayers into the volcanic soil—becoming a living part of the land’s ongoing story.

A Note on Integrity & Reciprocity

By choosing to join this journey, a portion of your exchange goes directly back to the Indigenous Kumus and the stewardship of the Temple Land. This is how we practice the medicine we teach—by ensuring the "Primary Physician" (the Earth) and her traditional guardians are nourished and supported.
