COHOUSING - THE FUTURE IS CO-LIVING

Just as a home is more than its walls and windows, cohousing homes are more than standard condos. To the people who create, join and live cohousing communities, they join an active and involved community of neighbors who know and care about each other and together live more consciously of one another and the earth. Cohousing has grown over the past 25 years to over 160 communities nationwide and the communities range from urban, suburban, or rural; new construction or repurposed; senior-specific or intergenerational. Successful communities generally share 5 key characteristics that may tempt you to consider a cohousing community for your next move. 

1. FOCUS ON SUSTAINABILTY

A core value of cohousing is environmental sustainability. This is reflected in preserved open space, in utilizing green building materials and techniques, minimizing the intrusion of cars, and the prevalence of community renewable energy systems. The sense of community created in these neighborhoods is the secret ingredient of sustainability, enabling people to have a collective impact, being good stewards together with their neighbors. Such a lively neighborhood means residents can socialize close to home, and parents can reduce the endless back-and-forth of shuttling their kids to playdates.

2. FACES NOT FENCES

3) OWNER-DEVELOPERS

Cohousing communities are recognized by certain design features, layered over a strong social fabric. A big benefit of cohousing stems from the sharing culture bolstered by generous common amenities. Cohousing features a common house (the heart of the community, with a large kitchen, dining area, guest rooms and more), and perhaps a shared garden, workshop, yoga room, pool or kids room. Communities are generally 20-40 homes, designed and self-managed by residents. The result is people-focused, with cars kept on the periphery and buildings grouped to leave green space for all to enjoy.

Financing is undertaken by the future residents, who act as "owner-developers" and provide the capital to fund the design costs and property purchase. Yet there’s nothing to fear when it comes to acquiring loans; in fact, Fannie Mae has language in its FAQ’s specifying that cohousing homes qualify for loans just as any other condominium development would. The project is built by means of a bank construction loan, paid off as individual residents obtain mortgages. Since residents buy-in to their neighborhood early on, turnover tends to be low.

4) TRUE NEIGHBORLINESS

Ever been ready to bake a cake and realized you're one stick of butter short, meaning a 20-minute drive to the store? In cohousing, your neighbor will probably have both butter and some baking advice. Cohousing is carefully designed to create a socially rich and interconnected community, a true "neighborhood" in the old-fashioned sense of the word. However, residents do not have a shared economy or a common set of beliefs. Individual homes have all the traditional amenities including private kitchens, yet most communities are proud to offer resident-cooked dinner rotations in the common house several times a week.  

5) SAFE AND SECURE

"Eyes on the Street" are the best security system you can have. Living in a community where everyone is a familiar face provides an extra layer of safety. Children can run freely and knock on their playmates’ doors, gaining a unique level of independence and trust with neighbors. Even in large cities, cohousing experiences little crime and offers safe and supportive living."

End of the story!
If each one fulfills daily an action that contributes to the sustainability of the planet the future will tell the story of a new civilization.

COERÊNCIA / COHERENCE

A Coerência

"Assim que nascemos colocam-nos uma roupa que nos aqueça, aconchegue ou torne apenas mais bonitos, de acordo com as condições, cultura e expectativas do ambiente onde “aterramos”.

De qualquer forma, já nascemos com uma pele.

Ainda no útero começamos a construir o nosso limite, a fronteira entre o dentro e o fora e, mais uma vez, de acordo com as características – temperatura, sabor, acidez, emoções – desse primeiro mundo redondo.

E assim vamos indo enquanto crianças, colocando pele em cima de pele, roupa em cima de roupa - ainda com muito pouca possibilidade de questionamento ou contestação - distorcendo, dissolvendo, reprimindo, esquecendo a nossa essência original.

E depois crescemos e começamos a tornarmo-nos naquilo somos, ou vamos sendo, ou naquilo que sempre fomos e deixamos de ser pelo simples facto de existir.

Vamos sendo aquilo que sempre fomos. Largando roupa e trocando de pele de tempos a tempos.

A mim a coerência, a permanência, nunca me soaram bem ao ouvido.

As convicções cheias, as crenças inquestionáveis, os seres prontos e acabados, cheios de coerência estática, plana, inerte.

A imobilidade assusta-me, ela sim é morte, e não a própria morte.

“Nós não somos, vamos nos tornando”
Clarissa Pinkola Estes, in "Mulheres que Correm com os Lobos"

“A mudança ocorre quando a pessoa se torna aquilo que ela é, e não quando tenta tornar-se o que não é.”
Alexander Lowen, in "Uma Vida para o Corpo"

#quote do Blog da Sara Anahory

A coragem de descobrir e assumir quem realmente somos, organiza e transforma a consciencia e a coerencia do nosso corpo.

The courage to discover and assume who we really are organize and transforms our body consciousness and coherence.
