Intentional Communities Attempt to Deal with Stress

Forum topic related to:

The intentional Community has attempted to deal with stress in the following way:

Modern life is a pressure packed affair with too many projects, too many deadlines and too little time for family or oneself. The bottom line, in my view, is that most stress is caused by lack of vision, mission, clarity and boundary-setting.

Many intentional communities strive to create a life that is harmonious with nature and other people. Some communities invest significant time creating and implementing clear vision and mission statements to guide their members. EarthHaven Eco-village in Black Mountain, NC is one example. http://www.earthaven.org/vision/vision.htm
