How 'plugged in' are you? Is there any way you are looking to change your relationship with technology? Earth Craft is located in remote, rural Vermont with limited access to cell service and internet. Furthermore, we will be intentionally exploring our relationship to technology, using it sparingly and intentionally within group agreements. How do you think you will handle 8 weeks where access to phones/regular internet/tv will be much reduced?
*
To cultivate a clear heart-mind and to support the deep individual and group work we will be undertaking, Earth Craft participants are asked to abstain from all Drugs/Alcohol aside from prescribed medication for the length of their stay. How do you feel it will be for you to abide by this policy? Are you able to commit 100% to this policy? How much are drugs and alcohol part of your home life? We hold no judgment around the relationship participants have with these substances in their personal life outside of their stay at Earth Craft.
