Change in Membership Community and Everyday Sangha

There was a special meeting held today detailing changes to the Community and the Sangha. There will still be a Member Community and an "Open" Sangha, but using a different structure that we have been using. A recording of the meeting will be posted in the Haaartland community.

Details:

• The Haaartland Community will be discontinued and all Member Community/Open Sangha announcements, meetings, chats, etc. will be available on Patreon. Haaartland will stay open until late December or, possibly, into January.

• There will be monthly "open" sangha meetings via Zoom on the first Saturday of every month at 10:00am U.S. Eastern time, beginning January 4, 2025. These meetings will be led by Wendy Shinyo Haylett.

• There will be "drop-in" meetings via Zoom on the third Saturday of every month at 10:00am U.S. Eastern time, beginning January 18, 2025. These meetings will be facilitated by sangha members, Lynn Chowayo Rubinstein and Terry Zenkai Hosken.

• There will be occasional live chats held either through the Patreon app or Zoom.

• All Zoom links will be available in the member community on Patreon.

• Stay tuned for an announcement about the Intro 1.5 group / or Book club, which may continue and details will be posted on Patreon.

• Many of the features begun and offered through Haaartland will migrate to Patreon, including the meditation room questions/info, guided meditations, a book list, and more.

• I will be cancelling all recurring Everyday Sangha donations. I ask that, instead, go to my Patreon or to the Membership Link on the Everyday Buddhism website to join via Patreon and be a member of the community.

• You will have another exciting member tier option on Patreon, beyond the Podcast+ Extras - Community Member (at a suggested donation of $5/month), and that will be Podcast+ and Substack Subscription for a suggested donation of $8/month. Please seriously consider this option since I will be offering many more extra articles, notes, and a special book publication through my Substack in the coming year, in addition to the Words from My Teachers podcast.

• And, of course, you have every option to donate additionally beyond these member tiers and your donations are greatly appreciated! _/|\_
