ZEGG: 100 people living together

Ninety minutes by train from Berlin, outside the town of Belzig, is ZEGG, the Center for Experimental Cultural Design (Zentrum für esperimentelle Gesellschaftsgestaltung).
As of 2011, ZEGG has 100 members, including 15 children.
Founded in 1991 on a former Nazi sports camp and East German secret police facility, ZEGG has regenerated the land and buildings with an ecological sewage treatment plant, carbon-neutral heating, thoroughly insulated buildings, and organic gardens.
ZEGG’s members believe that the life force of humanity, including our capacity for building a sustainable society, will only be liberated when we learn to take a non-possessive approach to sexuality.
I had strong reservations about visiting ZEGG, but many people with no interest in polyamorous lifestyles encouraged me-on the basis of ZEGG’s influence on the global communities movement-to go.
Having survived all manner of emotional upheaval among its members, ZEGG developed a group process called the Forum to explore highly charged feelings through dramatic enactments within a collective meditative space. The Forum has proven to be successful as well as portable. For the last 15 years, ZEGG has offered courses and seminars on the Forum for communities around the world as a tool for fostering greater self-awareness and social bonding.

I'm crying watching this. I went to Hawthorne Valley Rudolph Steiner school in NY and my father's drinking led to us having to leave and then growing up has been one series of unfortunate events and now in my 50's and look back and am so incredibly sad at what my life could have been. I yearn so much for what never was. I'm trying to get back to what is good and right for the world as a whole. This is it. My heart sings when I see it. Thank you to all the people that continue to live right and do right by the Earth🌻

Wow I am amazed by this project, and the fact that this is in my home country. I am surprised and I feel like I want to contribute there in any way for sure! Thank you for this amazing short film. I loved watching it! I'm so excited to see more from you!

I wish I could live there. Maybe joining as a volunteer some day (:

[@thomaskelly123]

yep, I would be happy to join and work with these folks, my tribe according to my heart. The last time I attempted to join a similar set up in England a few years ago they told me I would have to get jabbed first, that was the end of them for me. Best wishes
